You have just described King Crimson Smile. Larks Tongues in Aspic or Lizard should suit you well enough.

Cool to see Oscillospira ranking that high. A very overlooked album.


By the way, the last album by Simon Steensland is also worth listening to:

The great thing about Rate Your Music's top album's chart is that the new filtering system means you can focus on multiple genres. Check this list that contains both symph and avant.


Unfortunately only works if both genres are primary.
Secondary ones as in Van Der Graaf Generator don't show up.
The eclectic prog category on PA has many candidates

That's a great idea. I forgot all about that Emmanuel Booz album. Probably one of the best mixes of the two genres.

Taal (F) - Skymind (2003), but that'll include some Prog Metal too
                      quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

I think Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts - A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers can be considered a mix of symphonic prog and avant prog.
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
