greyfriar Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 Warning!!! Scottish prog!!!The second (2019) album from Grand Tour sounds very much like the old Abel Ganz in their prime. Hew Montgomery (and some members from Comedy of Errors) transfered the Abel Ganz sound of the mid-eighties, and early nineties, straight into the now. Great hybrid.Their debut from 2015 isn't shabby too.Glad that Scotland still has this incredible prog scene! 2
Mystic Slipperman Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 At this rate, I'll be able to tell you about my new band's release within a month or two in this thread!!! 1
Entre_Perpetuo Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Newer prog albums I've got: Brighteye Brison - VThe Far Meadow - Foreign Land 1
spaceaudity11 Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 This is a really diverse list of rock/metal- some of it is less modern than others, but all of these bands are at least active Thank You Scientist (some cool jazz-fusion prog metal. If Coheed and Cambria had a baby with Snarky Puppy, if you will)Bent Knee (their singer has a very unique voice, she really makes the songs imo. A really cool art rock/prog rock band)Haken (fun, slightly zany prog rock)Tesseract (Some "djent- if you use such terminology)Shokran (Some fun progressive metal core with really well integrated screams/cleans)Oceans of Slumber (I am more of a fan of their covers (ex. Nights in White Satin) but it is female fronted progressive doom metal) 3
Three Eyes Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) New, as in 2004 but new to me Eccentric Orbit This track is Star Power from the 2004 album Attack Of The Martians ... They released another album - Creation Of The Humaoids - in 2014 This is great stuff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrrW_Ow17-U and Sputnik http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5M28BExW5g Yep. Like this. :D-13: Reminds me of Space Junk is Forever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_Nda4Gd3R4 Edited May 15, 2020 by Three Eyes
stoopid Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Lies And Butterflies, the new album from Mystery is absolutely fabulous. Great sound, lots of atmosphere, a fine sense for melodies (the guitar work is fukkin' incredible) and much more can be found on this album. Best prog release 2018!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkk9fb8T0rU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb3IhMhopwk There's a lot to like here (guitar work and drumming stand out). There's an underlying current of corny though that saps the energy and dulls any edginess from those tracks. 2

zepphead Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 Currently on my Prog playlist .... Latest album by long-time Welsh progsters Latest release from John Mitchell's Lonely Robot http://progressiverockcentral.com/wp-content/uploads/windom-end-perspective-views.jpgDebut album from new Swedish Prog outfit
spaceaudity11 Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 For those who like progressive metal that leans more in the death metal direction, I really enjoyed Access All Worlds by Iotunn. 1
stoopid Posted April 24, 2021 Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Latest release from John Mitchell's Lonely Robot Still enjoy playing this every now and then. His usually variety of proggish styles. Edited April 24, 2021 by stoopid 1
New_World_Man Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 Windom End seems to be making the rounds lately. I've heard a little bit by them and while it sounded good I don't think it's anything that hasn't been done before and much better. They are sort of like Flower Kings Jr.
Alex’s Amazing Arpeggios Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 🤔 Can anyone please recommend any new Prog Rock/Metal releases by new or new-ish artists ? 😇 Preferably bands similar to YYNOT with strong influences ⭐️

stoopid Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Keeping true to recent posts on prog, Lonely Robot have a new album "A Model Life". There's a few youtube lyrics videos available. I've been avoiding listening to any of them, about to give the album its first spin. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lonely+robot+model **update -- have managed a few times through on the album, so far I'm enjoying it. Noting some repetition or themes from prior albums/songs (I'm giving benefit of the doubt to call them 'themes'). The one issue is certain ear piercing frequencies at very specific times with the vocals, almost like something he was using to increase presence is over hyping some upper frequencies in his vocals. I only have my free Amazon MP3 right now, but once the disc finally arrives I will be EQ'ing that flaw out as best I can. Edited August 30, 2022 by stoopid
stoopid Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 New O.R.k album drops today. Have my amazon mp3s and it's good, worth checking out. https://ork.lnk.to/Screamnasium https://www.amazon.com/Screamnasium-R-K/dp/B0B94GR817
spaceaudity11 Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) 2022 might be too ancient to be classified as "new" but Epigone by Wilderun is an absolute TREAT for those who enjoy progressive death metal with swelling orchestral elements! There are also softer moments without growls (such as the opener Exhaler) Honestly, anything by Wilderun is worth checking out. Am I biased because they are probably my favorite modern band, I have seen them live twice AND I have met the members for radio purposes? Maybe. Edited October 6, 2023 by spaceaudity11 1

I absolutely adore Veil of Imagination so I'll give this one a shot 1

New_World_Man Posted August 31, 2024 Posted August 31, 2024 (edited) I forgot about the Frost*. New albums by Tusmorke, Pure Reason Revolution, Beardfish and Opeth also. Eventually a new Echolyn and IQ album too. Edited September 1, 2024 by New_World_Man
