^ as do I! I'd say Prog Metal and Symphonic are tied for second with me, with RIO/Avant in 3rd place.

too many to choose from. not really into prog metal; it appears "forced" to me. but anything that is weird and psychedelic is fine for me. and I consider Zheul to be very psychedelic, by the way

I voted Kraut, but it would be even with Kraut and Space/Psychedelic for me.

<<< That should give you a clue!

Like a lot of people on here I dabble in all the genres, although there's not a lot of prog metal or neo prog that really grabs me, and I've never been able to understand the enormous appeal of Dream Theater.

Progressive Metal, althought I like all the others prog styles I went in. (Symphonic, Jazz Rock, Canterbury, Art Rock, Prog folk, Neo prog, Psychedelic...). Anyway is logical that ProgMetal still being my favourite subgenre; I am a progger that cames from the seas of heavy metal.

Hola senor R_DeNIRO.

I am very curious to your favorite Spanish prog bands (no progmetal please!)?

I don't really specialize in a certain subgenre, but I have been listening to post-rock longer than much of the prog I listen to now, and it doesn't seem to be quite as popular around here as symphonic and prog metal, so I suppose I could be somewhat specializing in post-rock. Furthermore, the other subgenres that I am heavily into have tremendous depth, and I really don't know a lot of those bands (at least not yet). So I guess if it was any one of these it would be post-rock/experimental.

I really really like post-rock but I'd still wouldn't consider myself a specialist since I started hearing the genre in october or september and there are still a hell freaking alot of bands that I haven't even touched yet...

and a little recomendation of a wanna be to be post-rock specialist...  try out Tone - Solidarity  for post-rockers and prog metal-ers too
