For some reason I can't figure it seems to be ELP The most hated individual ( which I totally disagree with ) is Phil Collins
Both are not justified ------------- How wonderful to be so profound |

I would say Dream Theater. People act like they have no emotions at all and
just play fast to show off. Why is Van Der Graaf Generator on here? I don't think they're hated at all on the site. ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

or I guess you could say post Gabriel/Hackett Genesis but I feel that is
completely justified for being hated. I hate it (or dislike it to an extreme degree.) ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

Holy God again that work hate. In my case except for 3 men Genesis, I don't have a strong dislike for almost any band. There's a difference between don't believing a band is Prog' and hating them, I don't like most King Crimson, but I can't deny they're 100% Prog', I like later Radiohead but I don't believe they're Prog'. Let's say mainstream Rap or Hip Hop, I don't hate them just don't absolutely care about them, my life would be exactly the same with or without them (maybe slightly better wthout them Sometimes strong beliefs or a defined taste is taken for hate, but I don't believe it is.

Gotta be late Genesis I love all other bands on the list except Styx, but they at least don't suck as much as Genesis trio...------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ocellatedgod" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

I must choose styx because I think they sux. Queen rates highly on my hate meter but they are not in the list. ------------- Two heads are better than one, but if you want something done right, do it yourself.

Well, since Yes and Dream Theater are my favorite bands.... Actually, I'm really confused. Most of the bands on the most-hated list you've made are bands I really like... *chooses 'any other'* ------------- How awesome. A place where I can talk about progressive rock and not hear "IS THIS ONE OF YOUR 50 HOUR LONG SONGS?!?!" I salute you. :D |

DT focuses a lot on technicality where many people feel that the feel or emotion of the song is lost due to the concentration on making the songs as complicated as the can be (and as fast as an instrument can be played.) A lot of times Dream Theater focuses on individual complicated parts instead of the overall song and atmosphere of the songs in general. This tends to rub off the fact that Dream Theater are unemotional and uninspired (which is just a common misconception IMO.) I like Dream Theater a lot but I do understand why people dislike them. ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

"Hate" is too strong a word. I'd rather say I don't care for a band, or even that I dislike it. Anyway, for me it would be post-Gabriel-and-Hackett Genesis. I find DT very cold and mechanical, but I own some of their records and sometimes even listen to them, though thery're far from being my favourites. |

Post Hackett/Gabriel Genesis I would say. Not that I hate it... I'm not sure people here really hate ELP as such. I think it's just fun to rib them, for whatever reason. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Yeah! Why's everyone talking about Marillon all the time? I have not heard a single decent prog song by them. do they have a few era's or something, like Genesis? -------------

Yeah, two. Fish-era, Hogarth-era I really like the "Brave" album, their best IMO.
Well, the most hated band is the Genesis trio, which is somehow well deserved sometimes. My vote goes to Dream Theater. By no means I can understand the oppinion many guys here have about Dream Theater. Where is their music cold? I agree that their music is focused on technics, but they have so much emotional passages in their music. They show off very often, but not too much to find it annoying IMO. Maybe I can stand that better than many others. ------------- "All you need to do is sit back, and acquire the taste." - GENTLE GIANT |

Sad to say I think Dream Theater is the most polarizing band on this site. I'm very dissapointed in some of you, and so is my syggie. -------------

I don't hate any of the bands mentioned in the poll, nor, most likely,
any bands on Prog Archives. I do hate a few non prog bands
though, mostly the mainstream crap rock of today, though I throw in a
little AC/DC hating as well  .

Where's the Triumvirat hater ? On the list I would say DT, but I don't HATE them, i just think like many that they just throw fast music on their album...and of course I don't post-BSS ELP. I don't like Zappa too. |

Sorry Phil. You are such a good drummer. But because you wanted to make money and feed your family, you are in my opinion the most hated person on this website. I'm so sorry to break it to you. -------------
