OK I have a confession to make  , when I put the list together I used my CD collection as a source for the information , in theory this sounds OK doesn`t it ?  wrong !!!!   you see I was playing my copy of Pagan`s mind and the CD wasn`t seen  as I collected the info ... so what happened was I missed Pagans Mind       I am so pissed at myself doing that   aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh     (in the end you can only select 25 bands theres no way I was going to fit all the prog metal bands I love in the one poll anyway)

100 at least maybe more .. when I put a poll together I try and spread the styles within each genre around, its debatable that Queensryche is a bona fide prog metal band (I know that) but because they get called prog metal a fair bit around here I felt due to their popularity it would make things more interesting by includng them,  same with Magellan , they are known as prog rock more so than prog metal.  My interests in ths are in trends of how people are thinking and their general attitude towards prog metal and what value it has in the prog community.

Way too difficult


I chose Kamelot - they get over-looked

Definitely Queensryche.

One of the first prog metal bands I would say, and with a discography containing only masterpieces, probably from The Warning to Promised Land.

Haha, I was scared when I did not see Opeth's name appear in the alphabetical order. Now that I saw them, and your post about how you listed the bands as you saw them in your collection, I am frightened to hear that some of your collection may be out of alphabetical order (I am really conscious about my cd order).
