I just got introduced to Akinetón Retard (the debut album) and it's great  . I hear a modern interpretation (defenitely not imitation) of King Crimson or Henry Cow. I can recommend this to everyone.
But I would like some help from you. What can you recommend me? What other bands play in the same vein as Akinetón Retard? What's next to discover? ------------- Dona Nobis Pacem |

Akinteon Retard are excellent. I recommended them several times previously.
A real gem from Chile. A mix of Larks era KC, the crazy sax playing of John Zorn and teh RIOesque sounds of intricate music, sudden changes of tempo, a little dissonance now and then.
Some other bands to start with:
(not necessarily sound alikes, but in the same spirit and probably bands you will like, given that you like AKineton)
