I think this may be part of the problem. I've never mentioned it before, but I don't care for jazz. So any band, especially a prog one, who uses it in their music is going to have a hard sell to me from the get-go. This is also why I often find VDGG hard to get into. I'll have my prog sans jazz, please.
