Just wanted to put something up for people to share their favorite artists/albums, preferably prog rock, but I guess prog metal.

My favorite is definitely Van der Graaf Generator. Gotta love Pawn Hearts

I love Godbluff and H to He.

My main prog fix of late has been Beggars Opera though.

Do you have any Gentle Giant that you could suggest? Like what's one of their more accessible albums?
