Tool, no contest. Also not a prog metal fan.

Continuing my anti-prog metal phase, I voted none of them. Opeth has not grabbed me in any way yet. I am burned out on Dream Theater. Tool has its moments but I am generally underwhelmed. As usual, I have to qualify that by the fact I admire the technical abilities of these artists and I can get into the genre every now and then. Maybe I have mellowed with age (but then again I am enjoying Generation X at the moment).

cool poll, i as of now, gravitates in style mostly towards Tool, as they also apeals to me in same mannor as bands like Neurosis, Soundgarden, Deftones, Janes Addiction, the mesh between prog and alternative music, the only Dream Theater albums i can hear for the moment and enjoy are Kevin Moore based lineup. And Opeth i must be in mood for, but i can listen to more albums by Opeth than Dream Theater.
So Tool it is.

For me, Haken is in a different period already. The new generation. |

Dream Theater > Opeth
I don't like Tool Edit: I think Opeth had more time-sig changes, solos and moments of fury mixed with calm when they played death metal. Soft Opeth is just...soft, with little to no in-track variation. There's no ups and downs or the crazy stuff you might find in Genesis, Caravan, Camel, Yes, KC etc. They became rather bland.

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Since I'm not into prog metal, I took the last option. However, I'ver heard some of the music from these three bands, trying to get into their musc, and I would say probably Opeth is the only one I could possibly try again.

Not my thing. Metal is Metal. Prog is Prog.
But it's all good. Portnoy era DT was pretty cool, I guess...

So you you think prog metal is part of metal and not prog?

Dream Theater I enjoy the Moore era of the band more than anything those other bands did. Specific albums from these bands in a poll would make for much interesting discussion.

Not really a Prog Metal fan but I do find Tool and Opeth interesting. Not the case for DT.

Opeth easily, Tool and DT are less innovative when it comes making compositions.
