Diagonal, or for a folkier approach, Circulus.
Interesting that somebody should mention Deluge Grander - try the first, first. The second is slightly more complex and, for me, less immediately accessible.

His only prog stuff is with NRG. His solo stuff, as long as Giraffe or Toy Matinee are mort art-rock / art-pop / mainstream rock. Kaviar could be regarded as noise rock. He recorded a lot of powerful ballads like Dana Rae, Long Day's Life (much better in its demo version that on the shaming), Another Day and had an incredible voice.
NRG could be considered as neo-prog.
NRG :
All NRG tracks are downloadable for free on his webpage.
And yes, he is a great loss for music in general.

A band I haven't seen mentioned is Sylvan. I recently bought Posthumous Silence on the strength of PA reviews, and am very glad I did. An exceptional album.

I was about to.  Seriously, KG was a genius. Great stuff - you should check him out. Of course, don't forget the obvious: Spock's Beard The Flower Kings Transatlantic Echolyn Glass Hammer etc... |

You might like Astra. I've only heard their album once, but it reminds me of some good older stuff:

Glass Hammer I checked out and they're actually pretty awesome if you're in the right pompous mood :D Other bands are just plain Swedish. Everything's from Sweden nowadays.

Try Anekdoten. If you like early King Crimson then you will love this band.
|

Would you like some Bailey's? |

High Wheel , they have poor ratings on PA, but i think they don't deserve it :
http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=149 You can listen to MP3, it's symphonic rock with a huge Pink Floyd influence. http://www.high-wheel.de/ A part of that there is the obvious one : Anglagard Anekdoten Glass Hammer Flower Kings Beardfish Edited by rdtprog - October 03 2010 at 08:09 |

You could always try Kayo Dot's latter works, Blue Lambency Downward or Coyote for some off-centre prog.

I just got a Beardfish album which I am very much enjoying.
If you like your prog in a more Kansasesque vein then Anti-depressive delivery with their FREE brand new album would suit you well. Its free...you really cant go wrong trying them out. I also just picked up a band called Deluge Grander , which I have only been able to listen to in highly distracted situations. Sounds good what I 've heard, but proceed at own risk. Alters is a Polish band that is a little more off the beaten path that you might enjoy. |
