Both fine bands, but GG is more my bag than extreme metal.

I don't find my poll strange at all, or off for that matte, two HIGHLY ambitious groups of their time, writing tight consese music, that are both technical but not overly serious, top notch musicans but not offering their playfullness, concepts that are not to full of them selfs, reflective and intence but also catchy.
so I can actualy se some simialritys between GG and Mastodon, they are not obvious, but for a fan of both. it is some of the same apeal i see in both, that it is a unit that together sort of know what they are after, and some how achive it (even if they are not awere of it, i look at you GG) Derek is to hard on he's own bands merrits, your albums are better then you thing SIR

Though Gentle Giant isn't my favourite band...they are miles ahead of what i have heard from Mastodon, no doubt.

Gentle Giant is not for my tastes. Mastodon is growing on me.

I hate to vote both, but I can't really chose between the two.

He's rude to everyone. He's a bitter, jaded human being. It's a natural outset of clinging on to the clearly false belief that Dream Theater is still relevant. Deceiving one's self into accepting such a unequivocally untrue statement can wreck havoc on even the strongest of man's psyches. I feel that any bit of humanity he had is now lost.

As my tastes have swung more towards metal in recent times, I had to vote for Mastodon. Although I love both bands.
