Are there any prog metal bands like Dream Theater that I won't get made fun of for liking?

Maybe Opeth. I mean some people here like em. But you'll always find that one faggot who shits on you for liking Prog Metal. Or Metal in general.
ayreon maybe? into the electric castle is real good

opeth isn't even really considered prog metal, although I've never listened to them before so I can't tell you for sure

The Theory Of Everything is a masterpiece fampai
Symphony X
Haken
OP Prog Metal is the kind of genre that's going to be made fun of regardless of band. Your out of luck there.

Well progressive death metal is still progressive metal.

Prog was never my thing
You could probably get away with Pain of Salvation, Riverside, Disillusion, Anubis Gate, Pagan's Mind. Maybe even Cynic, Lykathea Aflame or Ne Obliviscaris. Listened to all of them and only enjoyed a few somewhat. To clarify the first two are traditional prog, the next two are heavily power metal influenced, Cynic and Lykathea incorporate a lot of death metal (especially the latter) and Ne Obliviscaris has a bit of black metal influences.
I don't know if Edge of Sanity counts but I used to like them a lot. The guy in charge, Dan Swanö, has had a bunch of prog metal projects that you could maybe dig up.
