Listening to The Flower Kings again. World Of Adventures. It really is a great album, did you mean to say it's progressive metal? Because it doesn't seem that way. Though it still has that 'new' sound. The singer kind of bothers me, but those are small complaints for an amazing album. And actually, regarding new music, Suffocating The Bloom is fantastic. Probably my favorite album from the 90's and up (besides Anglagard of course). There's a few exceptions to new albums, but most of time they're cheesy, typical, poppish (neo-prog) type.
No, I'm not saying it's prog metal. I'm just saying that Flower Kings, even being a "third generation" prog band, still mantains a lot of 70s elements, such as songwriting and production. Hovewer, that "new sound" is inevitable I think. I mean, even using vintage analog equipment, the production environment (cds, mixing, editing ecc.) will give that "new sound". To be honest, I used to think vintage 70s and 80s production was way better that 90s and 00s stuff, but with the time I've changed my mind. This does NOT mean that I prefer digital over analog (and "new sound" over a vintage one), I simply enjoy them equally.

I was hating a bit on prog metal before, but now I begin to appreciate it more. Hell, I even like Images and Words.

Same here. ALL of the above.

17 and I love everything BUT progressive metal. I'm a 70's man with a few albums from the 80's. I tend to steer clear of recent albums. Preferring 'classics'. Perhaps a personal bias, but every new album has that 'new' sound, no matter what they do. With the exception of Anthony Phillips. He still got it.

Also, you should check out Aranis. Very much chamber oriented with a flute and violin. More on the RIO side, Univers Zero had a bassoonist, so if you're feeling adventurous, there's some great bassoon work there ... but that stuff isn't modern, its from the late 70s...

I suggest the new Echolyn album. Its very melodic and 'symph-y' and the music will get stuck in your head for days, but its still challenging like prog should be and takes a few listenes to get. Also, Phideaux ... more dark symphonic, but his last three are brilliant. Great guy, too.


Wow man, that's great!  I'd love to meet Annie and Jon Tout, but he doesn't play with them anymore.  I've never been much of a pianist, but I love the way he could weave classics into their own prog songs.
