What are your top 5 favorite bands that are considered "Non-prog"? I'm just wondering to see what everyone's tastes are outside the progressive genre.

1. Led Zeppelin

2. Black Sabbath

3. Deep Purple

4. Iron Maiden

5. The Who

Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can

1. Steely Dan (Simply one of the best bands ever)

2. Chicago (I consider their first 7 albums prog, but I realize I'm the only one in the universe who thinks that way)

3. The Who (especially Tommy, Who's Next, and Quad)

4. The Beatles (Especially after they got heavily into drugs)

5. The Beach Boys (Especially once they stopped playing their own instruments and Brian did LSD)

Too many to mention...I like lots of classic power/thrash/metal bands such as:

Pentagram (also known as Mezarkabul)
Forbidden
Metal Church (with Mike Howe)
Testament
early Mercyful Fate (aaarrghh )

Death Angel, Death, King's X, Trouble, Lillian Axe, Mastodon, Agent Steel, Nightingale, Mekong Delta (will they appear on the archives?), Atheist (I'm sure that they will...),

but my biggest favourite, one of my desert island disc is : Jorn Lande - Worldchanger

i agree that chicago started out prog...and speaking of the beatles...they did a lot of prog material during their drug era...in fact i consider the beatles pre prog...i doubt the movement would have ever happened without them.

Iron Maiden - you should know why

Faith No More - because of mike patton's voice and musical experimets with rock genre's

Dead Can Dance - that's beatuful

Mogwai - because of those guitar passages combining noise with typical song structure

Nile - those egyptian folk elements are incredible and sound is heavy and quite progressive I can say

I would like to sign this one, too.

And for me I guess, Nightwish is a prog band, isn't it?
