| What about the first two Queen albums? Those are very proggy at times. And Rush without a doubt, also one of my favorite bands (also one I need more of in my collection). |

| I never really thought of Stone Temple as prog. More grunge/post-grunge.
But I've not heard all their albums either, so maybe I am missing something. |

Ehh, I have a tough time with genres I always felt they had a progressive edge for their... "scene"? I don't know what the word would be, but they went beyond the norm of grunge/post-grunge, IMO. |

| The last STP album I actually filed with my Power Pop collection (!) I liked it but it certainly didn't sound like classic STP. It was kinda Cheap Tricky. |

| I can see why some would consider Stone Temple Pilots more prog than grunge. They sure didn't sound like most of the grunge bands.

I also understand the Cheap Trick comparison.
