I'd say it's pretty equal for me, throughout all these bands. I've never been a huge Floyd guy and I've really learned to appreciate and respect Radiohead over the years.

Pink Floyd and Opeth are tied for me.. I don't like the other bands at all.

Albums like Meddle, Atom heart mother and Umma gumma are next to impossible to beat
... on the other hand...
imagine the poll would be "post-wish you were here-Pink floyd" against the other bands...
I would go for the other three...
Opeth, Radiohead and Tool all showed a great consistency, creating new & interesting stuff along their career without making any bad albums.

But, of course that's not the question

well it feels sort of silly to choose radiohead over pink floyd but at the end of the day, when it all comes down to my individual music enjoyment radiohead IS better. pink floyd is certainly fantastic and superinfluential but i enjoy the musical qualities of radiohead more.

oh yeah, tool and opeth are great too.

Pink Floyd take it but only slightly over Radiohead.

After reading the comments here. I must admit that Floyd being in the poll was what got me here.
I do like Opeth, but only when not screaming.
Great analogyClap

If Opeth, Radiohead and Tool are anything but distant long forgotten memories thirty years from now then it might be fair to compare them to Pink Floyd, otherwise they should not even be brought up in the same breath.

All these are great bands, but Floyd is like four levels above the rest, with Tool coming in 2nd place.

Don't know why just these four bands are in this vote, but I say Radiohead because they are the proggiest of them.
