I know- I thought I'd make album suggestions in case he missed some good ones (and clearly he has )...plus I wanted to have some fun with his "red list." 

Well, I'm a bit confused about what you've liked and disliked, I would have though if you like this you should like that, and then I find it not bolded or even on red. So I have no idea if you would like my sugestions but if you have an oportunity you might just as well try them: Harmonium, specially Si on Avait besoin d'une Cinquiem Saison (somehow similar to Gabriel era Genesis and early King Crimson - the soft songs; with nice flutes); Focus, specially Hamburger Concerto and Moving Waves (similar to Jethro Tull); Metamorfosi: Inferno (RPI, don't know whom to compare the to, but so far my fav RPI -not that I know much about it anyway); Haggard (Doom Metal - with growls - many slow quiet parts with folk or classical sounds, and ofcourse, operatic vocals).

Same here, Raff.  Plus, I've looked at the disc of pre-Radigund's recordings, it seems interesting.

Hey Andy, have you checked Cabezas de Cera? They have a great stick/bass player, I believe you may like it

SaltyJon wrote: Oh, you like Comus!  You'd probably really enjoy Jan Dukes de Grey's album Mice and Rats in the Loft and probably Spirogyra's albums.  I've only heard their first, so I don't know which is best, but it's good.

We have two Spirogyra albums, and I believe they should be an automatic recommendation for anyone into Comus - though they are in no way so dark and disturbing.

sleeper wrote: Discipline and Knifeworld are two bands that I've heard a track from and like, but the former can be difficult to find for a reasonable price and I havnt gotten around to the latter.

You can get the mp3 download of discipline's unfolded like staircase on amazon for $5, though if youre like me you'd probably prefer to get the cd.  If you like peter hammill and vdgg id expect you would like that album.

Also a couple of my friends with tastes similar to yours really like coheed and cambria, so if you havent heard anything at all at least check them out
