But I have no idea is that fits the OP's criteria. 

Some others are Bent Knee and Thank You Scientist

All three excellent suggestions.

The Thank You Scientist album I played so far "maps of non existant places" was rather emo or indie sounding or something. I can't really explain it. If someone were to play snippets of it that just contained the vocal parts to someone who doesn't know any modern prog there's no way they would think of it as prog. As such it's maybe indie prog at best and reminds me a bit of Coheed and Cambria (not a good thing). I do have the follow up but haven't played it yet so maybe I should listen to that before writing this band off. As for Bent Knee, I have Land Animal and it sounded ok but I should probably play it again. Both bands are very good in concert though.

^Guess we hear differently. TYS is far from emo, and the album you mention, is one of my all time favorites. Oh well. Also, I like Coheed and Cambria. All prog doesn't have to sound like the 70's. Prog has evolved. Maybe you don't like modern prog? What modern prog do you approve of?

Yes, it has evolved but I guess I haven't. Tongue My favorites tend to be the more retro sounding stuff like the Flower Kings.

Soul Enema

Native Construct
http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=9469
Azure
http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=11824
These three came to mind for me.

Maudlin of the Well - Part the Second (as suggested earlier) I'd also recommend.
As well as Kayo Dot & Thank You Scientist.

There have been a lot of really good options presented.
Thanks OP, for starting a cool thread!

Compiling the recommendations into this post for convenience. Thank you for all your recs, prog or otherwise (but mostly prog)! Also, I want to bump this thread, as I would also like more recommendations to keep my "to listen" list nice and long.

I in particular would like some newer RIO, Zeuhl, Eclectic, and Fusion albums. Also definitely Math Rock/Post Rock. Those are some genres I'd like to expand on more. But don't feel limited! Especially new, innovative (meaning breaking new ground), and good works are definitely appreciated. You can even branch out into other genres as long as it breaks new ground and does something good and interesting with prog like in Mercury Tree's Spidermilk (as mentioned before).

Cool beans! I was more looking for more stuff to listen to besides what was already posted. How about Fusion/Math/Eclectic albums?

Haha. No, they aren't. I was just asking for more stuff to listen to (plus I didn't see your latter message until now). My apologies if it seemed that your helpful contributions to the thread seemed to be passed off. I really do appreciate them. Thank you!

Btw, to be clear, I have not listened to everything posted here yet--just some of them, but I'm asking for more anyway to keep my "to listen" list nice and lengthy.
