Exactly. The prog umbrella seems pretty big (at least on this site). There
are bound to be differences of opinion, but one man's trash is another
man's treasure. Try to understand and tolerate that other man! I don't
personally like prog-metal (still stuck on Maiden!), so I don't comment on
it- why should I? To denigrate someone else's tastes? What kind of person
am I if I enjoy doing that?

That's not directed at anyone in particular...

And yarstruly, given your tastes, I'm not sure Radiohead's for you,
although OK Computer is very cinematic in scope and atmospheric, and
has some good melodies on it. You could try that one.

Oh yeah and there is NO best band ever...that's subjective. All great
bands put out a crap album or two if they're around long enough.

Heptade--From a prog-metal fan, that's a good attitude and I respect it. I'd be glad if there were many more of you on this site.

There are genres of prog that I don't like, but I hold back my comments because I know the fans of those genres wouldn't appreciate it if I ripped into them. In fact, I've actually tried to keep quiet which genres those are.

Likewise, FloydWright

Unfortunately, as Grandma used to say, "It takes all
types to make a world." Courtesy is not necessarily
the rule, especially in the anonymity of cyberspace.
It's like driving, people's jerk tendencies come out
when there's some metal between you and them.

BTW, speaking of prog metal, is Pain of Salvation
any good?...I've feared it might be cheeze or overly
pompous or pretentious...is it worth a shot?
Samples just don't give me a feel for it.

Pain Of Salvation suffers from the same thing that DT does. The excess of "Genesis-esque" and "Yes-esque" passages. Not that cheesy at all. Worth checkin if you're in Prog Metal. 

Instead, I would recommend Kaada and Patton album, if you like beautiful songs. Fantastic!
And above all, is punk

I can't give an opinion about Pain of Salvation since I haven't tried their music for myself; sorry.

Radiohead sucks.  There, I said it.

Pain of Salvation sucks.  There, I said it.

Kaada/Patton was an interesting project and had more variation than anything I have ever heard from the other two bands that I said suck. 
Coalinga knows how to party.

Is it just me or has the level of intelligence on this forum dropped significantly recently?

And the really stupid ones say things like the title of this thread.

What are you trying to prove? What point are you trying to make?

Who cares that you don't like a particular band or album - especially when you can't even justify why that should be except in pathetic terms like "Dude, they're boring".

This is just low grade trolling, IMO.

I like  humour, I often don't get it, but it's the attempt that matters

Kid A is a brilliant album. It's been growing on me a lot recently after repeated listenings with friends (maybe thats why...). The more I've listened the more I have appriciated it.
