A few more not rated but still very good bands/artists. Comments below.
NR Miles Davis (Would probably make my top 100 even though I've only heard less than half of his stuff. Favorite albums are probably In a Silent Way and Get Up With It)
NR King Crimson (Another that would make my top 100, maybe even top 50. Favorite albums, Red and Discipline)
NR Avenged Sevenfold (A top 50 band most likely. Favorite albums, City of Evil and The Stage)
NR Scorpions (A top 100 band. One of my dad's favorite bands. Favorite albums, Taken By Force and Love At First Sting)
NR Frank Zappa (Kind of the same situation as Miles Davis, except Frank has some stuff that I absolutely don't like, so probably wouldn't be a top 100 artist. Favorite albums, Joe's Garage and Hot Rats)
NR Evergrey (As I mentioned earlier they have some decent albums and their latest may actually be my favorite, but I still don't like Tom Englund's vocals)
NR UFO (A band that I haven't listened to enough. I keep intending on doing a deep dive. I do really like the album Walk On Water)
NR Godspeed You! Black Emperor (A band that had 3 masterpieces to start and on the strength of those would have made my top 50, but everything they've done since has been fairly bland)
NR Nightwish (A band that I strongly considered for my initial list and might be in my top 50. Favorite albums, Dark Passion Play and Once
NR Katatonia (A top 100 band easily. Favorite albums, Brave Murder Day and The Fall of Hearts)
NR Helloween (Another top 100 band even though they have about 7 terrible albums. Favorite albums, Keeper of the Seven Keys (both parts) and Gambling With the Devil)
NR Radiohead (Wouldn't sniff my top 100, but I do like some of their stuff. I also find a lot of their stuff extremely boring. Favorite albums, OK Computer and In Rainbows)
NR Big Big Train (A band that keeps rising in my ranks, but is probably still outside of the top 50. Favorite Albums, The Underfall Yard and both parts of English Electric)
NR Peter Gabriel (Kind of forgot about him, but would still be outside my top 50. Great artist though. Favorite albums, the third self-titled (aka Melt) and So)
NR Megadeth (My second favorite of the big 4. Don't like all of their albums, but enough to probably land in my top 100. Favorite albums, Rust In Peace and Dystopia)
NR Kiss (I guess I shouldn't be surprised they are in the collective top 50, but man....they'd probably sit in my bottom 50. Do.Not.Like. I mean, I grew up gaining a love of rock music from Rush, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Def Leppard. Kiss was just boring and toothless in comparison.
NR Spock's Beard (Easily a top 100 band for me, maybe even top 50. Got into them with Octane, which I still really like. Favorite albums, The Light and Snow)
NR Neal Morse (I lump Neal Morse Band with solo stuff, but I only listen to NMB. I'm with Jammindude on the solo stuff for the same reasons. Favorite albums, The Similitude of a Dream and The Great Adventure)
NR Pain of Salvation (Most likely a top 50 band, but they are wildly inconsistent. Everything from Scarsick thru In the Passing Light of Day are not good, but the rest of the albums are anywhere from good to amazing. Favorite albums, BE and Remedy Lane)

33 Riverside (First heard this band on Progulus back around when Out of Myself was released. Were one of those formative gateway modern Prog bands for me. They've kind of fallen down my rankings in recent years. Favorite albums, Anno Domini High Definition and Out of Myself)

6 Anathema (From depressive doom, to amazing depressive rock, to uplifting beautiful atmospheric rock. Amazing band with a ton of feel. Favorite albums, Weather Systems and Alternative 4)
