So..it occurred to me recently that I am aware of only one entire Prog band that has no living members.
Emerson Lake & Powell. No surviving members.
That raises the question...What other prog bands are there where no member, current or former are still alive?

Soft Heap, arguably; all members who had their initials featured in the band name (also the only people to have been featured on their one studio recording) have passed away.

^Well since Carl Palmer is an original member and he's still with us I'd have to say no to that one.
