I always thought of it as rock music that blended itself with other types of music, i.e. jazz, hardcore, blues, classical, etc and used a musical pattern which progressed throughout each track.
Knowing how some people get really pretentious about genre on here, I'm probably in for a torn arsehole for that definition

If anything, those bands I listed will at least give you a good head start on progressive rock and progressive metal.

Thanks man. Which Yes album do you think I should start with? They've released a **** tonne. Also, do you consider early Genesis as worth checking out, I've got most of their stuff with Collins as frontman, but none of their progressive music.
