Weird list. Spoke's Beard is the most "prog rock" artist of the bunch!

Really interesting list. I took a quick glance at the top 10, saw 'Blackwater Park" in there, and thought "wow, this is a credible list". But Metropolis over Anesthetize...?
Thanks for this!!!

Blackwater Park as a prog song??? Not for me. It is an amazing song though.
Darn right it's Prog! It moved metal forward.
But, old friend, I do get your point of view. But I think Steve Wilson put it best when he suggested that if Progressive keeps following the old blueprint, it ceases to be progressive and becomes regressive.
Big Big Train is awesome, but they spend a lot of time saluting Gentle Giant, Genesis and the like. Opeth took heavy music WAY beyond anywhere it had gone before. It "progressed". But man, one really does have to expand the definition of Prog to fit it in there, to be sure.
WOW Tool is in the list...
Not quite sure it belongs there.
Why not? When I first heard it, I thought it was the best King Crimson album I'd heard in 10 years
Regarding Steven Wilson mixing the Sorceress album by Opeth.Unfortunately, yes:

Well my progressive friends I just received the new 2017 supposed remaster of Porcupine Tree's 'Fear of a Blank Planet'.
The new FOABP is more compressed with a bit less clarity than the 24/48 digital download from Burning Shed. Save your money as I just bought a $13 coaster. C'est la vie.
Any of you picked up the remastered version of Aquarius from Haken? I did and once again compression is the problem, furthermore there a definite "distortion" on the lead in vocals of the first track, that wasn't there on the original version. I bought this since I never had the original version on CD or lossless, as it was OOP for awhile. I became aware of this band last year thanks to this thread, thanks guys.
It's too bad that Haken is not getting the mastering it deserves.
