I actually do believe there is another thread with the exact same theme areound here, i'll see if i can find it for you..

Right.. i guess "all genres" includes prog, and you're looking specifically for non-prog bands. Anyway, i just thought you might want to look into that one, it is a rather long thread, so it may be interesting to you.

Most bands I listen to fall outside of Prog. Posting a list would be a huge, unnecessary namedrop so I'll avoid that.

Prog makes up a very small part of what I listen to considering how picky I am about it, so most of what I listen to falls outside of prog like black metal, indie, emo, ambient, New Age, avant-garde, minimalism, doom metal, classical, etc.
