More progressive?

Two great progressive bands. I've voted for BTBM as slightly more progressive and marginally prefer them myself over PTH, although have pretty much everything both have released.

I've never listened to Protest The Hero so can't vote but you've got me curious so will check them out.

"Prog" does not really equal "progressive." That's a common distinction made on ProgArchives if you're ever there. The amount of throwback prog bands that don't progress music at all proves that. That said, my statement about these bands may have been premature. They may be doing something that hasn't been done with their respective genres (though metalcore band Converge's math-y rhythms, dissonance, and long track lengths have been there since 2001, just sayin'), but I do find both bands a bit generic in production style and in the way they incorporate prog elements.
