Ya know it's scarce I see a top 10/favorites list without seeing "Yes" on it.
Yes... "Yes" is on mine as well, Yes, it's confusing, yes?
Here is my list:

Yes
Anyone's Daughter
IQ
Ayreon
Dream Theater
Pink Floyd
Emerson Lake and Palmer
Sigur Ros
Camel
Magma
Genesis

Schizoid man, based on your favourites list (im only assuming here)
I think you are really going to like Ayreon, definitely Marillion.
Opeth and Symphony X are very hard groups to digest, I love symphony X myself, but I could never digest the "Cookie monster" vocals within the beautiful music, that is Opeth. It just didn't seem like it should have been there, to be honest with you i HATE opeth, becuase of the simple fact that they threw that style of music in absolute beautiful sections of music... it eritates me.

and that is why I love OPETH and that's what make them prog and original in my opinion. This scary hardcore metal music mixed to the beauty of the prog world. Brilliant combination. Brilliant Band.

Well, I like these bands (or composers):

Iron Maiden, Manowar, Rush, King Diamond, Genesis (not all the albums though), Helloween, Gamma Ray, Megadeth, Mercyful Fate, Judas Priest, Yes (only some of the albums), Jethro Tull (most of the albums, not every album though), King Crimson, Bruce Dickinson, Slayer, Sodom, Gentle Giant, The Beatles, Camel, Iced Earth, Rainbow & Black Sabbath (only with Dio or Tony Martin singing), Pink Floyd, Van Der Graaf Generator, Wagner, Beethoven, Mozart, Holst.

+ 1000 other bands... I also like some jazz and blues. It's mostly either metal or prog.
And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
in the tidal destruction the moral melee.
