Ha.  I'd have never even started this thread if Ween were neo-prog.  Total geniuses.

I love that album personally and another great example of brilliant song writing in the 21st Century. There are also his Lonely Robot albums, some nice things there and he also guests on last years Legacy Pilots album. One of the best modern(ish) guitarists imo. 

That actually explains quite a bit.  Currently, Frost and Arena are two of the top neo-prog bands on my chart, although I'm still a bit new to them.  My current top 3 neo-prog albums are Milliontown, Immortal and Experiments in Mass Appeal.  I've also found that I'm partial to Marillion's Seasons End as opposed to their Fish era.  Seasons End just made #4.


If you like John's guitar work, you might like to check out his side project 'The Urbane'. A bit more mainstream, but Neon was very good.

In the realm of early 90s neo-prog, there was The Violet Hour, a UK female-fronted quintet with music that is quite distinctive and features the flute. Their musical spectrum is eclectically characteristic in being influenced by a wide palette from late 60s The Beatles, via 70s prog-folk heritage and the mid-70s Pink Floyd, to Kansas.
The Violet Hour dropped their sole album, The Fire Sermon, in 1991. Following the release of their debut album, the band embarked upon massive touring attempts, supporting the fellow neo-prog luminaries Marillion on two tours.
