I like many bands but definetly I prefer other styles. I think Avant Grade is pretty interesting but there are better styles like: Zehul, Symphonic Prog and Prog Metal

One of my favourite genres, together with Jazz Rock/Fusion, Zeuhl and Krautrock. But of course almost every subgenre has some gems. Avant-Prog is my personal fave at the moment.

Im a huge Zappa fan, and I think Mr Bungle and Fantômas both are excellent bands, however, haven't so much else from that genre... Though Henry Cow's "Unrest" is pretty good.

One of my favourite genres, obviously. It's one of the few genres which has remained consistently progressive in the wider sense of the word, and continues to throw up surprises. To be fair, there is also a certain amount of pretty much unlistenable stuff in there as well - it's in the nature of experiments to fail from time to time.

Option 2 for me - although I always say "you cannot compare genres", I have to say that many of my favorite albums come from that genre, much more than Krautrock or Zeuhl.

I can't understand how someone who likes progressive music can dislike avant prog
