I hope this isn't just another random mismatch poll to you all, but these are probably my three favorite bands.
They don't sound like each other, but I think that they are similar in ways other than simply how they sound. Some of these ways might just be my personal opinion, but maybe you can see it too, if you know them. They're all in the archives, but are not quite the first thing you think of when you think of "prog" (especially Deerhoof, whose inclusion in the archives, I imagine, was not welcomed by everyone).

The reason that I made this poll is because I don't hear much discussion about them, so I thought it would be interesting get some idea of your opinions on them to maybe see where I fit into this community. For proggier groups, my next favorite bands include Mike Oldfield, Yes, King Crimson, and Gentle Giant.

So who do you like best? And what do you think about them?

Faust
Slapp Happy
Deerhoof
