I always have thought that Styx and Supertramp have a similar sound, they both sound prog, but also have a bit of pop melody to their songs, so who do you think is better?

Supertramp!More original.
Mikael Akerfeldt for fans of Opeth who don't like his growls (and generally the growls): If they don't like it then they are pussies.

Extreme prog metal rules!!!

As for this one, Supertramp by a mile!  Styx could only DREAM of creating something like Crime of the Century.

easy--Supertramp--I'm not into any American "prog" related or whatever--late 70's or 80's bands--not Styx, Kansas, Journey, Boston, etc.

STYX by far, the started as Prog and evolved to some sort of mainstream Prog but keeping the quality..At least until Babe (Don't say Cornerstone, because Lights and Boat on a River are outstanding).

Supertramp easily. But I don't mind having some Styx in small doses from time to time.
