That said, my vote must then go to Dream Theater

Dream Theater is my favorite progressive metal band since I'm 10 years old. I like also Opeth, Anathema, Riverside, Psychotic Waltz, Atheist, Cynic, and other prog metal bands.
Music is a form of meditation.

No doubts... ANATHEMA is my choice.....even though I wouldn´t classify them as a Prog metal band, since Judgement. Wink
Anyway they are just Pure Genius.Clap
Second choice, might be Opeth.

of course SYMPHONY X!

Then probably Vauxdvihl/Clockwork/Payne's Gray, but sadly they are too unknown

But Psychotic Waltz and Adagio are great as well!!!

      great when such a good topic can be found twice!

It seems that I have to get Anathema and Meshuggah since the praising in this thread.

I guess I'll vote for Dream Theater but all of those bands that I heard are nice too.

MAudlin of the Well are worth the recognition.

Queensryche. Just for Mindcrime, though they definitly fall on the "Metal" side of the prog-metal scale.

Oh, Ayreon is my favorite from this list, no question. The Human Equation and Into the Electric Castle are both masterpieces.

I went with Ayreon because they are my second favorite and DT is killing everyone anyways so they don't need my support. lol I think DT should be put into Early DT and Late DT by the way because they are totally different with either Moore or Rudess.

Ayreon - the most inventive prog metal group out there at this time!!

Of those options Ayreon followed by Riverise. Threshold are up there with them, though.
