I like the idea of albums as it gives a better representation of ones tastes (and might help in discussion and for discovering new-to-us albums).
This really has to be my long post in a while since I've fallen behind on work (I work on my computer from home mostly and am a big procrastinator and not always the best with time management, but posting here kind of helps to get my brain firing on all one cylinder). Canterbury Scene: Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom (1974) Crossover Prog: David Axelrod - Song of Innocence (1968) Eclectic Prog: Jean-Claude Vannier - L'enfant assassin des mouches (1972) Experimental/Post Metal: Maudlin of the Well - Leaving Your Body Map (2001) Heavy Prog: Atomic Rooster - Death Walks Behind You (1970) Indo-Prog/Raga Rock: Clivage - Mixtus Orbis (1978) Jazz Rock/Fusion: Herbie Hancock - Crossings (1972) Krautrock: Brave New World - Impressions on Reading Aldous Huxley (1972) Neo-Prog: Marc Ceccotti - Sometimes Around Saturn (2008) Post Rock/Math Rock: Tortoise - Millions Now Living Will Never Die (1996) Prog Folk: Perry Leopold - Christian Lucifer [archival, recorded in 1973] Progressive Electronic: Franco Leprino - Integrati ... Disintegrati (1977) Progressive Metal: Diablo Swing Orchestra - The Butcher's Ballroom (2006) Psychedelic/Space Rock: J.A. Ceasar - Kokkyo Junreika (1973) Rock in Oppostion: Art Zoyd - Génération sans futur (1980) Avant-Prog: Geinoh Yamashirogumi - Osorezan / Dou no Kenbai (1976) Rock Progressivo Italiano: Area - Caution Radiation Area (1974)* Symphonic Prog: Clearlight Symphony (1975)** Tech/Extreme Prog Metal: Voivod - Nothingface (1989) Zeuhl: Magma - Magma [aka Kobaïa] (1970) Various Genres/Artists: Mort Garson - The Zodiac: Cosmic Sounds (1967) Prog Related: John Cale & Terry Riley - Church of Anthrax (1971) Proto-Prog: The United States of America - The United States of America (1968) Of course I could have gone with various other choices, but I'm happy with my list. * That Area album isn't really RPI despite the band being in RPI, it's avant- prog/ jazz-rock. My Neo-Prog album is more space-rock than Neo-Prog, but I'm not going for most representative in my list. ** While I love Clearlight Symphony, were William Sheller's Lux Aeterna included in PA, that would be my pick.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

For this list, I decided to choose favourite albums rather than favourite bands because I feel that this a better representation. Also, although each subgenre is represented, a number of subgenre are represented by only a single album, which are listed even though they can hardly be regarded as a "favourite". Canterbury Scene: Hatfield and the North (Hatfield and the North)

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I don't have "a" favourite in each category, it's several favourites in most of them, and many in a few of them. That said, I'll try to choose one (band or artist) from each. I have done this before, but I'm thinking this up again. I went with several for two choices, split RIO and Avant, and differentiated Canterbury Scene from Sound, and in many cases I could have gone for others. Was tempted to split Psych and Space (and kind of wanted to mention Gong under Space even though it's in Canterbury).
Canterbury Scene/Sound: Robert Wyatt for Scene, Cos for Sound Crossover Prog: David Axelrod Eclectic Prog: Jean-Claude Vannier Experimental/Post Metal: Maudlin of the Well Heavy Prog: High Tide Indo-Prog/Raga Rock: Clivage Jazz Rock/Fusion: Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock Krautrock: Popol Vuh Neo-Prog: Marc Ceccotti Post Rock/Math Rock: Tortoise Prog Folk: Perry Leopold and Comus Progressive Electronic: Igor Wakhevitch and Zanov Progressive Metal: Diablo Swing Orchestra Psychedelic/Space Rock: Älgarnas Trädgård RIO/Avant-Prog: Art Zoyd for RIO, The Residents for Avant Prog Rock Progressivo Italiano: Area Symphonic Prog: Clearlight Tech/Extreme Prog Metal: Voivod Zeuhl: Magma Various Genres/Artists: The Zodiac - Cosmic Sounds Prog Related: David Bowie and Terry Riley Proto-Prog: The United States of America EDIT: Missed adding my pick to one category, and it was one of my favourites on the list.

^ yea, There are several that I haven't really checked out much. I was going to put PFM for Italian but they are really the only band I know. They have RIO listed with Avant. The rest I don''t really know. I gotta get out more.

It looks like you skipped RIO, tech/extreme metal, post/experimental metal, RPI(Italian prog)raga and electronic. I think that's about it. Nice list though.

I've only been here six weeks, so even if a list of favourite artists in each Prog-related genre has been done before, it's good to see a new one, because all of the previous favourite artists lists passed me by long before I arrived here. It might be a good time for me to travel back in time and take a look at some of the older favourites lists to see what I've missed out on.

Wow! This is GREAT!!
 You always come up with the best polls. I'll have to get back to you with my answers because I'm still putting together my favourite YES album and I'm listening to "The Tales of Topographic Oceans" right now to find my favourite song on the album.

I know someone probably did this before I what the heck, Give us your favorite band from each prog sub genre.
Do as few or as many sub genres as you like ( I'm not familiar with all of them so I skipped a few)
