Wow! Aggressive, intch'a? I just would not consider them prog rock per se: they have prog elements in some albums sure, but the aforementioned Eve, Ammonia Avenue, Vulture Culture, Sterotomy ... this don't speak to me as prog albums no matter how great they are. Gaudi maybe, although I'd disagree with Ant on Eye in the sky: for me that's not a prog album, despite "Silence and I" being quite a proggy track. I'd call them progressive in about the same way as I would call Supertramp progressive, which is to say they have prog elements but would definitely not be a prog rock band imo.
