Dude, awesome poll! And a tough one at that...
Went with Riverside, but all three have albums in my top 10. PoS a ridiculously close second.

Flip that I did PoS with Riverside at a close second! Haha definitely my two (maybe only) favorites from the prog metal sub

I don't mind Riverside and PoS but don't listen to either very often. I don't care for Haken much at all.

PoS for me; a very unique band with one of the best vocalists in music IMO.
|
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

I like all three, but I prefer Riverside.

When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.

In general: Riverside, but the best individual album I have heard by one of these bands is The Mountain.

I'm not a huge fan of any these bands, but The Mountain alone is enough of a reason to say Haken

Out of those three it would be Riverside, but none of them are personal favorites.
