Do you think followers of Donald Tusk are great fans of prog music? I don't think so. Many of them are listening to Doda

Planet X is mind boggling. They would score the highest possible score for technical merit. As much as I appreciate their work, Liquid Tension still carries some astounding musicianship while being much more memorable and enjoyable.

Both are great and i love the music they make. Both have perfect blends of musicians. But my vote goes to LTE.

LTE by far! I find Planet X abit samey but Liqueid tension are fantastic! Both albums are amazing! LTE can always keep your attention whilst I find myself wandering during a Planet X album, good background music.

You might like Gordian Knot. Technical, Instrumental, lot of good guests (Trey Gunn, Myung, Bruford, Hackett).

LTE wins by a good margin ... but Planet X are also great. Tentatively I'd say:

  • Planet X: 4.5 stars
  • LTE: 5 stars

But I don't like the LTE improvisations too much ... I'm discounting them, otherwise Planet X would win!

Planet X, great musicians and very interesting
compositions. I can understand that some people
don't like it, but I really adore it, although it
took a long time.

This is kinda objective statement, and no one in right mind would argue about that.

However any poll requires rather subjective personal opinions.

I just wonder what you voted for???

I can recommend you to try following: 

Bozzio/Levin/Stevens

Spaced out

Talisma

Addison Project - one of my latest purchases - very jazzy (maybe too jazzy for me) but still very good!
