If You like something more heavy bu melodic try Shadow Gallery - Room V...

Or Ayreon - The Human Eqation

Or Evergrey - In Search for Truth

Or Dream Theater - Scenes from a Memory

Also get the awesome Damnation by Opeth (not heavy)

Thanks for responding, everyone. I have, and love, all the Flower Kings
stuff, love Mars Volta, like Porcupine Tree, am "ok" with Arena.

I will check out the stuff recommended by Erik. That's what I've been
looking for. Any other recos along these lines would be great. btw, Nexus
is a great band.
