Dudes into prog rock.

[from zero]

I'm totally into Porcupine Tree right now. I loved their last album, In Absentia, and I'm loving the new one. I even had the pleasure of seeing them live last weekend.

Anyway, I wanna dive further into the genre. I know there are countless prog rock/metal acts out there. What are some worth looking into?

Spock's Beard? IQ? Tangent? Poverty's No Crime?

Well the obvious old school prog bands of course.

Right. I didn't think I needed to mention those.

Ayeron - The Human Equation

It's kind of neat. I'm more into it than I used to be, check it out.

I sampled an EP of theirs not too long ago. I was diggin' it. Too bad the store didn't have a full length.

I came _this_ close to picking this up earlier today. Maybe another day.

obviously dream theater and their offshot, the even better instrumental-only liquid tension experiment

They can do that experimental improv thingie that gets annoying, but they also have great themes and melodies

I have been a big Dream Theater freak for many years. If you get a chance to check out their live show, it's definitely worth it.
