Progressive metal is a generally needlessly complicated and unstructured form of music that often makes minimal sense to the majority of metal fans because it can only be appreciated by people with an IQ over 600.
Progressive metal fans often believe they are superior to any fan of any other genre and will generally reject any piece music that isn't at least 20 minutes long with 40 key changes per minute.
Music in 4/4 is like kryptonite to a progressive metal fan and they must be administered dream theatre riffs as an antidote
An easy way to spot a progressive metal fan is to look for the guy who is pissed off at Opeth for dropping the growls yet goes to their shows anyway and yells for them to play Black Rose Immortal. He will also let everyone know that he's mostly there for the support band, who he has known about for ages.
In short, the math nerd of metal

Get the Heavy Metal Butterflymug. A musically watered down style of metal that's meant to be as inoffensive and possible and appeal to the widest demographic possible. Also commonly overlaps with octanecore.
"Old school" butt metal is basically mediocre groove metal/NWOAHM, it can also surprisingly overlap with (melodic) extreme metal, for example FFDP, Damageplan and the album Trust No One by DevilDriver
"New school" butt metal is typically inoffensive, easily digestible metalcore, for example Bad Omens, I Prevail, Spiritbox, new Of Mice & Men, new Architects and most legacy metalcore acts trying to be relevant nowadays (Atreyu)
