Sure, their music has a more mainstream appeal than Radiohead, i know a lot of people who love Muse but dont really like Radiohead.

Im a big fan of both myself.

you cant forget the moody blues either, if you consider them progressive i guess

I was disappointed to come on here and see a thread about Prog Metal and then see people talking about freaking Radiohead. I agree with JP that Dream Theater is Prog Metal, as well as their side projects, Jelly Jam and Liquid Tention Experiment. I would also include Queensryche as well.

Radiohead are boarderline prog, like Pink Floyd they are prog when they want to be, among their influences were The Beatles, Jeff Buckley, Talking Heads, U2, The Smiths and Nirvana, but they have also listed Pink Floyd, Queen, King Crimson, Roxy Music and Can as influences as well. Their first 2 albums were straight up alternative rock, Pablo Honey had no real progressive ellements at all, and The Bends only had a fiew, however OK Computer, Kid A and Amnesiac all have heavy progressive ellements, i would classify them all as prog albums.
