progressive metal

[ironman1966]

what are some good progressive metal bands that you listen to ?

 

[powerslave]

Queensryche
Dream Theater
Stratovarius
Nocturnal Rites
Fates Warning

Just a few off the top of my head. I have at least a few discs from each of these bands. Some of the progressive stuff I have trouble getting into. Just not heavy enough for me.

Opeth have been called progressive. But they're like progressive death. And they fucking rule.

Evergrey - Top notch band. Maybe more a power metal band than progressive.

Dream Evil seems to be a decent band, although I've only heard a few songs.
