Of old: IQ and Marillion.

More recently: no specific favourites. I have heard some good albums by Grand Tour, Magenta, Comedy of Errors and Nine Stones Close in recent years. The most recent album by Nine Stones Close will probably end on top of my 2016 list, but this one has more to do with Heavy Prog than with Neo, unless my ears are mistaken.

among modern prog bands, which could be called post-progressive rock I recommend:

Steven Wilson (obviously)
The Pineapple Thief
Gazpacho
Il Rumore Bianco
Lazuli
La Coscienza di Zeno
The Secret Sits

Falling Satellites by Frost* is the one of the biggest disappointments of 2016

Satellite? This is only the shadow of a great group Collage

Finally, Galleon's magnum opus "The Ocean" is a perfect description of everything awesome about Neo Prog.

Listen also to Paul Roland (albums Re-Animator and Pavane). He sings like Phideaux Xavier. Wink

Recently stumbled across a Dutch band called Silhouette. Their last album Beyond The Seventh Wave is an absolute beauty and for me the best neo prog album since IQ's Road Of Bones.

Not sure that you can call Barock Project , neo.

Why?

Because of all the bands mentioned here, it is the only one that doesn't SUCK.

You will have to convince me that they are indeed neo.
