I was tempted to add "The Nile Song" by Pink Floyd but I really don't hear any prog in it. Also, if you choose other please choose a song before 1980. I will allow multiple votes but please no more than three votes.

Megalomania, Minstrel in the Gallery, One of These Days and Achilles Last Stand.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

All of King Crimson's offerings, The Knife, and One of these Days. Will vote for Red on the mood of the day.

That's four. Are you deliberately trying to be rebellious? Tongue

Ummm...you allowed multiple votes. If you wanted us to pick one, you should've not chosen the multi-vote option.

Nothing on this list pumps me up quite as much as Minstrel in the Gallery, although most of them pump me up quite well. 
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Led Zeppelin. Some of the others are heavy Prog to me. Others are simply metal, and a few I've never heard them

I vote for Sabbath this time.

Some bands worth mentioning, maybe: Blue Cheer, Budgie, Buffalo, High Tide, Sir Lord Baltimore.
Maybe Black Widow and Coven as curiosity.

LTIA 1 all the way - and though it's not an option here - even more so LTIA 2.

You said "no more than three" and I gave one. What's so rebellious about that?

Minstrel in the Gallery, a fine bit of Elizabethan boogie.
