Haha, boo boo positively loves DT.

I find prog metal is quite different to prog rock. Different ideals, different fanbase etc...

Actually Rush shares a pretty big fanbase wuth prog-metal, even they don't belong to the genre. Other bands I'm not sure about.

Bump!

Anyways,

Prog. rock- A tie between King crimson, genesis and camel.

Albums:
ITCOTCK(needs no explanation...i prefer this over red for some reason)
Foxtrot(same as above...Prefer this over SEBTP)
mirage(holy sh!t Doug Ferguson's bass were just superb...i don't think the guitar/flutes needs to be mentioned cuz those are the highlights of the album)

Prog. metal- pain of salvation. These guys are ****ing awesome!

Albums:TPE1, Remedy lane and BE.(All three 10/10 in my book)

'Prog' is pretty ambiguous, it basically covers bunch of different styles which share certain archetypes.

True, but with DT's sound, I think it could go either way.

I like most of the selections in this thread,,,I'll pick Yes and the album "Fragile", it was the very first Prog/Rock album I bought it the year it came out. It along with PF's "DSOTM" introduced me to this new exciting(At the time) style of British music. Recently I've started checking the newer prog/rock bands and I've found a great deal of new info thanks to all the banter members. It's going to take a few weeks to listen to all the new bands I've seen recommended in here.
