A very hard choice this one.
Floyd were always one of my favourite bands in the seventies, just behind Genesis and Yes in fact. And I still enjoy them now.
PT have been one of my fave modern bands since I heard The Sky Moves Sideways; ironically there most Floydy album!
I am one of those who prefer the older PT to the newer, heavier PT.
Nevertheless, as they are still evolving, and as I haven't heard a PT album I don't like yet, (unlike Floyd, were I don't like Ummagumma, More, Obscured By Clouds, Animals or The Final Cut), I voted in the end for PT.

Both of these bands are amazing, but I have to vote for PT, they're still my favorite band.

How childish of you to try and demolish PT after they destroyed Dream Theater in that poll... and you call yourself DT's critical objector...

Anyway, this poll is perfectly legitimate...Two good bands set out against each other, plus a third option many people would prefer for it doesn't require to spend neither money nor time. Big%20smile

1. Pink Floyd
2. My nose
3. Porcupine Tree

I prefer Porcupine Tree to my nose, but still I pick my nose a lot more often than I listen to Porcupine Tree.

Will the student become the master? I think not. At least DT and PT could be considered peers. Yes? Wink

Come Pink Floyd vs. Dream Theater, I'd vote for Dream Theater. I think it goes without saying I'll vote for Porcupine Tree here.

PT. DT got too entwined with classic rock for my tastes.
