Well I'm gonna have to go with Anal c**t. UP THE GRINDCORE!
 
 
Actually I'll go with Opeth, although they aren't really that extreme. They're my favorite band, but they aren't all that extreme.
 
Meshuggah rape, not literally, but still they just blow my mind.
 
If I want my prog-metal extreme though, I usually go with black metal that has crossed over into prog.

The albums released by Death in the 90's are in my opinion light years away from any of the other listed bands' output (except Atheist), at least in terms of virtuosity display and intricate arrangements. Unfortunately, probably turned off by the band's name, not many proggers seem to be aware of their work. And what a musical treasure this band has left behind.

Much agreed about Into Eternity, and I must also agree with the statement that Opeth is not extreme metal, they are symphonic progressive death/black metal, nothing is extreme about them, they are heavy but overall very Bluesy.

You must include Into Eternity!!! What a amazing prog metal band, it's like Opeth but getting tecnically crazy. Strongly recommended. Buried In Oblivion is an excellent album.

I don't think Opeth are extreme at all, to me they're like symphonic prog made heavy... as for pure extreme prog metal, Meshuggah all the way!

The insanely heavy-sounding instrument contrabass saxophone would get my vote, had it been in the poll.

1. Opeth, 2. Death, 3. Atheist/Enslaved plus a some technical death metal bands such as Martyr, Sleeping Terror and Psycrotic that would be really great if they had a better vocalist.

Meshuggah eats any of the above alive when it comes to Extreme metal.
