Anglagard is the best by far, after the 80's, when I had lost confidence in listening a great band again came Hybris and changed my perspective.

Also Par Lindh (Pure Gothic Prog -my own genre. ), Anekdoten, Samla Mammaz Manna, etc.

Swedish Prog' is one of y favorites.

Iván

I agree. I saw and heard Anglagard live at Progfest 94. The best!

You named some other great bands. Par Lindh Project, Anekdoten, and Samla Mannaz Manna.

Well, mister, not every Prog band has to sound the same. And POS is about as innovative as you get these days.

I vote JJH and EST.

Anglagard is too incredible for me to even consider voting for anything else.

I bought their debut for a few days ago, and it really does a good job
mixing Änglagård/crimsonic influences with alternative rock I otherwise
don't touch. Not spectacular, but a decent and promising debut
nonetheless.

Err... I'm certainly not an expert in Swedish prog, so forgive my
ignorance, but: Weather Report????? Is this a prog band named as
Zawinul's & Shorter's fusion supergroup, or is it a typo? Just curious...

Otherwise, my vote goes to Anglagard --- I'm thankful to ProgArchives
for making me discover them!

Kultivator and Myrbein were both great groups. Both had influences from Zeuhl.

I also like these two but OT are definitely not neo-prog. They sound space rock to me.

Ozric Tentacles are probably the furthest thing from neo-prog I've ever heard.
