I have to say that the title of this was misleading - if it was between Elvis and Prog, then Prog would win.
However, vs Prog Metal, Elvis wins every time. I can find nothing particularly appealing or interesting about Prog Metal and would not listen to it out of choice - having listened to a lot of it these past 3 years or so.

looks like Prog Metal has a commanding lead over listening to noises in the bathroom stall adjacent.

If you had not put Johnny Cash  with Elvis and Jarry Lee, this would've been a no-brainer>>> Elvis and Co.
So I went with the bathroom stall

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Yeah, gonna have to go with Aquarium bubbling. Not that I hate 90's Prog Metal but, the sound of an aquarium bubbling seems rediculously appealing and soothing at the moment.

Elvis - please! Utter lack of talent with no charisma. Why people like him is beyond belief. And those who call him "King" - they really creep me out - there's little weirder than that.

That's a totally rubbish, anti-historical and stupid commentary. Like him or not, Elvis put rock'n'roll in the map because he could hit the massive white audience that the racism never would permit a black artist (and better, like Berry) touch in the 50's. It really doesn't matter if you appreciate his singing and songs or not, but his historic role can't be denied or classified as rubbish.
