My favorite bands change every week. It seems that I'll really be into 3 or so artists at a time, only to move on to the next unsuspecting trio of bands a week later. Sometimes the bands are new to me, & other times thay're old favorites - but they always change over time.
 
This thread is reserved the advertisment your 3 favorite bands or artists right now.
 
...for me, right now:
 
Art Zoyd
Univers Zero
Present

My all-time top three would be Dream Theater, Symphony X and Savatage.
 
I can't really list a top three of the moment because it's always different, but at the moment I am REALLY digging Glass Hammer.
 
I've had some of their albums for a while and not paid too much attention to them, but I've been giving them a few more spins lately and really like what I'm hearing. In particular, the album "Shadowlands" is absolutely fantastic.

Right now:

Steven Wilson - listening to Insurgentes a lot and trying to resist reviewing it before I fully appreciate it.

Marillion - my all time favourite band, and I still listen to them constantly.

Karmakanic - this album ios genius, and I can't listen to it enough at the moment.

As for all time, I suppose Genesis & Yes in addition to Marillion, but I've always tried my best to shuffle as much as I can.

Sorry, happened to hit me on a day where two of my all time favorites match the favorites of the day.  All time I'd probably throw Dream Theater or Spock's Beard in instead of Karmakanic.

Hiromi Uehara- Just discovered her and she's already one of my favorite jazzers. Her duet album with Chick Corea is amazing, and everything else I've heard from her is right on that proggy side of fusion I love so dearly.

Agent Moosehead- Local band from Philly I discovered by accident. I got their only CD and its fantastic. I might have to take a trip there just to see em live. So up my alley its almost unsettling even.

Shpongle- I'm not into trance music by any means, but these guys make some undeniably good music. Very spacey organic sounding stuff not too far removed from the Ozrics (one of my favorite bands). I'd call it prog too, the songs are very adventurous from what I've heard. Fun fact: one of the two members is Raja Ram, the lovable flute playing hippy who founded Quintessence back in the golden age of prog music. The flute improv over the tracks are done by him I believe.


These three pretty much exclusively have been getting play. So great! I should be listening to one of these now in fact.

Haha yeah that's a great song. I love the themes in their music; from the exoticness, to the puns (Dorset Perception), and especially the ultra diverse use of samples like Terrence McKenna's lectures, singing, chanting, and ambient sounds from all over the place. I think my favorites at the moment would have to be Dorset Perception and New Way to Say Hooray.

Oh, and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1jPeG1LlaQ makes me want to see them live very, very much.

I've been listening to a bit more straight up prog metal lately, so Symphony X and Pain of Salvation ( I think I'm going to HAVE to get more POS stuff).
 
I also recently acquired 2 Tangerine Dream albums, Rubycon and Phaedra.
 
So:
 
1. Pain of Salvation
2. Tangerine Dream
3. Symphony X

My top three over the last few years would be, and that's been pretty consistent 'til now (listed alphabetically):

Art Zoyd
Henry Cow
Magma

Miles Davis gets very special mention, but I still need to explore M.D. more.


Yeah, very similar....if I had to list a solid top three (not just lately), it would be Henry Cow, Magma, and National Health.

Over the last couple of months or so:

1. Mastodon. Crack The Skye hasn't left my 5-disc cd player ever since I bought the album. Serious contender for album of the decade.

2. Steven Wilson. Insurgentes just keeps growing and growing on me.

3. Hmmm... Robert Wyatt maybe.

With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince.
With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

Been really into the heavier side of prog music lately...
for the past few months... Ugh I really wish I can have an actual CD of Maudlin of the Well albums. D:
