Errrggghh... When I look at some of these post I have a feeling I'm sharing this site with Morons... Prog metal in not a genre... ? here it goes again... Delusional Old Farts!!!!

*rapid and hectic breathing...*

I don't like VdGG, I love DT but still I will not vote... this poll is stupid, useless, ignorant! And all the posters here should really reconsider what they wrote...

Jesus Christ is everyone on this post retarded?  The question clearly asked what band you SUBJECTIVELY prefer, not which band is better, nor does this question ask to compare both of them or find any commonality between them!  That has nothing to do with the question!  I don't know why all of you have to make something so easy so goddamn difficult.  It's like asking someone whether they prefer pizza or sushi.  Or would you still complain that pizza and sushi are too dissimilar for you to be able to say which one you preferred!  No comparison is being done between VDGG and DT, nor did the poll say they were related at all!  Why are you guys making something out of nothing?  Just say which band you PREFER, it's as easy as that.  VDGG for me.

I like them both for different reasons, but overall I like Van Der Graaf Generator more by quite a bit.

Now if this were Pain of Salvation vs. Van der Graaf Generator, that I would be unsure of.

How could such an absurd Poll get 4 pages of opinions and 100 votes ??. My polls are always a failure. Once I started a "lizard vs Atom heart mother" Poll with a large range of options and it worked for only a dozen of votes.

VDGG!

I do like DT a lot also. But their discography doesn't compare to VDGG's + I like the emotion that goes with the vocals and the lyrics of VDGG.
I'm running still,
I shall until,
one day I hope that I'll arrive

Is this a joke??? When DT compose a tune such as "House with no door", only then they'll be able to stand competition.

Very different bands to vote,
anyway i vote for Dream Theater because VDGG always make the same experimental music and DT change his music in every album (but without changing his style).
 
two great bands with different music and different art, i think this poll is meaning less because all the people is gonna vote fo VDGG because they are 100% prog and DT is a mix of different rock.

1 Sing to the LORD a new song;
       sing to the LORD, all the earth.
