Prog Metal progenitors.  I didn't say they were prog metal themselves, I said they influenced many future prog metal bands.

I don't really agree with this too much the progmetal progenitors for me would have to be both King Crimson one of the original progressive bands that definitely was doing metal a lot in the 1970's, Rush, and Iron Maiden to some instance, but not Metallica. Also, for me Iron Maiden was better than Metallica before, and keep progressing their sound more and more while Metallica has sucked for quite some time now.

Love the two bands.
But Maiden never done something so disgusting as St. Anger.

So... UP THE IRONS!

Metallica. And Justice for All... > Ride The Lightning > Kill 'em all > Master Of Pupets i don't care about the rest from them.


Maiden. Seventh son > Number > powerslave i don't care about the rest from them.


Metallica wins. i'm here looking at the names and probably i would put seventh above master, but that's it.

AJFA is brilliant, but MoP is the only one really close to prog lolololol

Not that it matters because I enjoy Maiden more.

Yay, someone isn't yelling at me!

Metallica influenced like every metal band ever (which includes Prog metal) and had some fantastic proggy elements in AJFO and MOP, as well as smigeons (just smigeons, mind you) in their other albums.

I see Metallica is more a metal band that had some progressive tendencies in a few of their albums. I do agree with CCVP that And Justice is the most progressive. The only thing I found ridiculous is Metallica stopped making things that they considered to be complex because they bitched about 9 minute songs being too long to play. Now some people may say well they are hitting all their instruments yard, but so were King Crimson with their crazy improvs!

Metallica introduced me to metal and rock music in general, so they get my vote.  Plus I just like them better.

Iron Maiden. James Hetfield has sung the same song, in the same manner, with the same inflections since 1981.
