	The Mars Volta. But Tool is a close second. What about Godspeed You Black Emperor?

	Mars Volta, but Radiohead comes close. And Porcupine Tree are up there.

	I'm having trouble deciding between Opeth, PT, and Radiohead I think I'm going to go with Opeth because their latest release impressed me the most. But yeah like somebody said, where is Godspeed?

	TOOL is my favorite modern progressive band. Followed by... Radiohead Porcupine Tree The Mars Volta Godspeed You Black Emperor Tortoise Ozric Tentacles(been around since 1982)...so maybe not that modern Opeth I consider Massive Attack to be very progressive (Mezzanine and 100th Window are both amazing albums)

	Porcupine Tree is the nearest band to the prog sound

	Slightly better poll choices than usually, I was forced to choose Opeth, although they are hardly the favourite to me, taking their post-MAYH sound into account. -- Ivan

	All of they are awsome... but i don't put Muse in MY list. I don't know them too good. Any way, the other bands are incredible... Greetings

	I chose Riverside from the list. But my favorite was Spock's Beard until Neal Morse left them.

	If we talking about pushing boundaries - my vote goes for TMV. Otherwise Anekdoten is best one from this list (not pushing anything - just doing great music). Paatos are OK at times. Others are very mediocre IMO.

	Opeth, but it was a hard decision. Riverside comes close, very close. I love both bands, but in a different way. I think 'Ghost Reveries' was absolutely magnificent, as well as 'Second Life Syndrome'. It's just different music. And I haven't heard much yet of Anekdoten, but what I've heard, I absolutely dig!
	Focus on the music... Focus!
