Agree 100% on the Talking Heads

I would put Fates Warning on the list, who is beyond underrated in the world of progressive metal. and I absolutely credit them with being the first true prog-metal band, and you rarely hear anything about them anywhere. They were called the American Iron Maiden, but the depth of their music goes well beyond Maiden's, Compare this to what Maiden were doing in '86. I also like John Arch's vocals better than Dickenson's.
