which of these two bands is heavyest, most distinct and most metal overall, Nektar was recently added and have yet to gather reviews, Rush is farely popular and have many reviews and have a strong image in early development of metal/ prog metal, but have Nektar any influence or have they some word of mouth in 80s metal birth. i know Maiden coverd a Nektar tune so they have been of interest to some of the british wave of Heavy metal pioneers how is most metalzzz  -------------

Cool. I was not aware of this song. Was it a B-side on Aces High? (I assume this based on the picture saying Aces High). -------------

I never really considered Nektar to be that heavy. More psychedelic/spacey and symphonic then heavy. A Tab In The Ocean is a great album. -------------

i think they are among the heavyest of the prog bands, heavy guitar and symphonic guitar riffs rather then blues based, and as proto metal tag says mixing of pyschdelic rock and hard blues rock and Nektar is that a mix of psychadelic rock (they are much heavyer then Floyd), and hard rock

Sure Rush because the are the fathers of Prog Metal for too bands. Nektar is a great band but not so important for Metal scene. -------------

I did the same, for me Rush is very overrated. ------------- http://www.riseaboverecords.com/wp-content/uploads/BLOOD-CEREMONY-new-2016.jpg |

Don't really think either are particularly Metal  so didn't vote. Both bands are excellent but quite different.Steve Harris is a huge Nektar fan hence the Maiden cover. |
