I just got this feeling yesterday when listening to "Snowbound" by Genesis.  Brilliant, clever, chilling song.

It happens when I listen to most tracks off of TMV's Deloused in the Comatorium.

I usually get goosebumps from well executed dynamic shifts in music, in particular King Crimson, Genesis, Gentle Giant and a lot of Jazz Fusion.

Also, organ solo's give me chills!

It's happened to me, but I think mostly during either Gentle Giant or Gustav Holst.

Goosebumps all around!! I get extremely effected while listening to the greats, which are for me Dream Theater, Saviour Machine, Genesis, I.Q and Arena. These are the bands that are really goosebump activated for me. Thanks for the great forum and good question.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

For sure!
Mostly when I was first discovering prog, though, and really listened to the songs I heard all of the time on the radio growing up, but only just started really *hearing* to them. Oh, and it also happens a lot when I listen to prog through headphones for the first time (Floyd, for example, hit me really hard, with all the subtleties that speakers just can't convey no matter how loud they go.). ...And when I realize that non-prog songs I love are actually proto-prog or prog-related. Not exactly the music that does it, I guess, but realizing the coincidence. (Happened most recently with Max Webster and The Blue Oyster Cult).

This happens to me a ton! Some prime examples:
King Crimson - The ending to Starless, Bolero from Lizard, the careening Mellotrons in The Devil's Triangle
Pink Floyd - the verses from Echoes. Made me tear up.
Dream Theater - the nasty good bass tone in Trial of Tears, the last 5 minutes of the Count of Tuscany
Yes - The enormous church organ solos in CTTE and Awaken. The acoustic transition from Roundabout is amazing too.
Sunn O))) (not prog, I know.) - The apocalyptic soundscapes of Alice
Rush - The opening riffery in Xanadu. I fell asleep listening to my iPod, and this came up. I was slowly waking up, and the introduction was just so freakin' majestic!

There are so many others that create this feeling, but it's hard to remember them.

I consider drone metal to be progressive...

Hi, cool to actually find someone else in a prog forum who loves Saviour Machine Tongue One of my favourite bands. I've had many goosebumps with them too.

Definitely one of the main reasons why prog is my favorite type of music - tingly, ethereal, mystical, other-worldly (you get the picture...)

I'm now getting those feelings from Ozric Tentacles and Neal Morse. I recently went online and was able to get Illusions on a Double Dimple and the Spartacus cd's. Triumvirat - March to the Eternal City was an early one for me back in the 70's.

Wow - I'm jealous - all I can say.

I rarely get the feeling - we all are searching for that. Its what keeps us wading through new music to re-discover that moment and get our next "fix"
