Consistantly progressive.
 
What was The Single Factor then?

The Single Factor is more prog than 80's Genesis or Yes.
For Sasquatch alone it's a gem.

Rush made big strides through the eighties with Moving Pictures and Signals.Power Windows is also underrated IMO.KC probably were more 'progressive' but i'm not that interested in what they were doing then.

I think it's King Crimson.
 
I would like to hear any argument from people who voted for yes or genesis as the proggest of the 80's.

Definitely Rush for me. Moving Pictures and Grace Under Pressure are very good albums. And can't say anything good about 3 KC albums of that period....

of course Marillion isn't included, because the one that started this poll was talking about the big bands BEFORE the eighties Evil Smile
Interested in my reviews?

I think the proggest band in the 80's was Marillion but due to the lack of options in this poll I was forced to vote for Rush which was so proggy too

I agree. In some cases better..
     

KC was the proggest in the 80's IMO.

- Oldfield if the 80's stopped in 82
- Crimson if the 80's stopped in 84
- In reality, Rush
