I don't think there's anything psychedelic or spacey about The Wall really, in fact I think it's closer to symphonic, any of the albums till Dark Side of The Moon would be better examples of the Psychedelic\Space Rock genre. What do you think?

Hehe, knew that, but I maintain that it's an essential neo-prog album which shows what the combination of neo prog with post rock could look like...That it's now in Xover just might mean that there's some neo influences in that catagory...

good list
I have not heard Unexpect though
Death's Symbolic is definitely in Clap
I don't really agree with a Murder of Crows, found it weak and not
representative of the genre...

Nobody posted on NEO PROG yet, so I'll give my list of essentials for this genre of which I'm a great fan. First of all I have to say I restricted myself to 1 album of each "essential" band except Marillion, since they are more than essential, quintessential to this genre. The choice of albums also reflects my personal preferences Smile
 
Marillion: Fish era -
Script For A Jester's Tear (The most essential album of the genre)
Misplaced Childhood
H-era: These two albums define the music of this period best IMO:
Afraid of Sunlight
Marbles
 
IQ - Subterranea
Pallas - The Dreams Of Men
Arena - The Visitor
Collage - Moonshine (absolutely great!!!)
Clepsydra - More Grains of Sand
Saens - Escaping from the Hands of God
Satellite - Evening Games
Gazpacho - Night (mixture of neo prog and post rock)
Aragon - Rocking Horse and Other Stories
Sylvan - Posthumous Silence
 
and the DVD's:
Pendragon - And Now Everybody To The Stage
NEO - Broadcast
 
 
To be the one who seeks so I may find .. (Metallica)

I like your list Toni, it gives a good representation. I might have added God Is An Astronaut or Set Fire To Flames.

Wow, thanks for the lists, I like to see and get to know other perspectives of how a particular style of music sounds to others and what different "subs" comprise it.
I'm still a bit too busy to write a list, but it'll come later.
 
Keep them coming Smile

1.   Magma - Kohntarkosz
2.   Dun - Eros
3.   Eider Stellaire - I
4.   Eskaton - 4 Visions
5.   Happy Family - Toscco
6.   Koenji Hyakkei - Angherr Shisspa
7.   Shub Niggurath - Les Morts Vont Vite
8.   Weidorje - s/t 
9.   Archaia - s/t
10. Bondage Fruit - IV

probably should have added some Zao in their, but I'm not so familiar with their works.
