Tried the German band Eloy and their Pink Floyish take on prog. The music is OK but the often half spoken vocals in what sounds like a comedy German accent did not work for me.............

Much, much better are the Polish band Riverside. Second Life Syndrome is a superb prog metal album........

Matthew .... on your last post. you have a pic of a cd with a black couple seated .... which cd is that?
 
More Devin Townsend and 'Ki'. The wall of sound is less intense, but the atmosphere is still there, such as on Disruptr, underpinned by background electronic noises like gurders in a howling wind. Other tracks are more indie/metal in style.

Got some Sting on right now, 'Englishman in New York' and 'Russians' are very good instrumentally on my fairly new system, haven't listened to them for ages, very glad I spent my money now. Very glad.

It's "Ella & Louis" by Louis Armstring & Ella Fitzgerald.
 
Its a naff album cover and the bands name suggests some sort of soft etherial folky music. But what you actually get is a Dream Theater/Yes sound and a superb recording.

Ozric Tentacles and the excellent IQ, classic prog rock in its most traditional sense.......
