Children of Nova. They only have one EP out, but I adore it.
Also, tried for the first time in my life to listen to an album with growling/screaming vocals in it, Colors by Between the Buried and Me. I always thought I was totally averse to the stuff, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I originally thought, the musicianship is actually quite good. Being a fan of Pink Floyd, Rush, Yes, etc., growling wasn't in my repertoire, but it'll now sneak its way in here and there.

Catapilla!!!!
Obscure femalesinger a la Belgian Canterbury band COS fused with the spacewhispers from Gilli Smyth, along with twin saxophone attack, psychedelic guitar and a rolling rhythm section. Both albums are from the 70´s and definitely worth checking out if you feel in the adventurous mood  |

First off, my biggest discovery of the year would have to be this site, which in turn have turned me on to Camel and Van der graaf generator. I have been visiting this site since last winter and finally got the nads up to start posting. Thanks to everyone who donates time to this site for helping a prog head expand his horizons.

This year, this year...difficult to say. I finally became a Genesis fan, more or less...but I'd have to say Nektar are the biggest thing to rock my world in ages. Especially Tab, Remember the Future, Recycled, and Evolution...amazing, unique music, and the current soundtrack of my life!

Clark-Hutchinson
I must have seen them at the Reading Festival in 1971 but have no recollection of them.
I bought 3 albums on a double CD this year and was incredibly impressed. The first album is instrumental and quite interesting but the second album - retribution - is absolutely brilliant. The third album - gestalt - is also very good.
Hutchinson's guitar work is brilliant, especially the acoustic stuff. The songs are quite unusual, maybe with a hint of Kevin Ayers but with very strong instrumental arrangements.

I like the 3 Monks (official) CD-R. Italian trio of pipe organ, bass, drums. If you like Goblin, check 'em out. Great!

In Lingua Mortua. Their last album is a perfect mix of black metal and 70s King Crimson!

Brian Eno's ambient music. It's opened up a new world to me and changed my view on music. Henry Cow was also discovered by me early this year...and thats pretty damn important.
