Not my favorite band although I do like them alot, but I think Gentle Giant sticks out the most, they are totally unlike any band, or prog band.

I think King Crimson sticks higher out of the field.
Their prog is darker than any other. Fripp's own guitar tuning gives a unique atmosphere.
They also have this style where they want to build up music with layer upon layer upon layer. It sometimes sounds like a canon.
I think there can be musical parallels drawn with Gentle Giant.

I said gentle giant before i saw the "other" option...but gentle giant is definately the best up there in my opinion...otherwise you would've recieved an "other" for The Mars Volta.

I'm a reasonable man, get off my case

Well I answered before reading your1st post, this is just a "whats your
favourite" poll, and mine's Yes. I thought the question was, which
stands out as in being distinctive from the rest, either musically or
otherwise, for which I could understand Gentle Giant getting many
votes...and it was on this basis I voted for Frank Zappa.

This is simple for me: "Other" is the only appropriate choice since my all-time fav. band is YES

Number One will always be YES
Number Two has to be RUSH
Of the ones on your list, I picked TransAtlantic because I've been listening to them a lot, but truth be told, Genesis is the best of your choices.
