OK weird poll but I voted A-M for Genesis, GG, Harmonium and a lot of other bands I'm pretty sure. Oh I just thought about Banco.

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

I'm pretty sure there are more A-M bands than N-Z bands anyway!

That is an incredibly hard topic, but I chose N-Z.


Probably because of Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Rush, and my favourite non-prog bands are in that category too, like Our Lady Peace, Soundgarden, and Nirvana.

But A-M is pretty good too- Dream Theater, The Mars Volta, King Crimson, Marillion, and then there's Led Zeppelin, Alice In Chains, Incubus, and The Doors for non-prog

I'd say it's a tie.

Wow guys, you got too much time on your hands

How about ESTYX for those who like Art Rock?

There is enough in A and G alone to make A-M take the lead by quite a bit I think for me.

While N-Z has some of my favorites Yes, Pink Floyd and

So on, A-M has many more bands that I like. Jethro Tull,

Gentle Giant, King Crimson so my vote goes to A-M.

Genesis, Tull, DT, Mars Volta, Mr. Bungle, Led Zeppelin... A-M for me, although there are many great ones in the second half too.

Things are getting curiouser and curiouser

Well, A-M, I suppose. Oldfield, Pink Floyd, PFM, UK, VdGG, Yes aren't strong enough to beat Camel, Caravan, ELP, Genesis, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull, King Crimson. 7-6

Very hard to choose, but I voted for A-M because of King Crimson, Genesis and (Fish-era) Marillion.
