I don't think any prog bands (except maybe the Floyd) get the recognition they deserve from the world.

IMO:

"Cabezas de Cera"

Definetly one of the best avant prog band in Mexico. If you love yourself you should give it a listen.

I don't understand why almost nobody mentions Echolyn. Not only are the ratings of their albums through the roof but all these people who enjoy American rock'n'roll as well as Gentle Giant don't seem to have heard of them or given them a chance. You're wasting time reading this, go buy "As The World", they were almost famous (and for good reason), only to be shut out by sony (I think that's the right name anyways) and should have made millions. Thanks a lot American music industry!

John Scofield in the Jazz/Fusion genre and Bela Fleck and the Flecktones in
the fusion genre.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

I just went to see Tower of Power at BB Kings in NY and came back with tickets to see Spock's Bread in May.  I am going just on the recommendations of people here as I know nothing about them.  I don't even have an album yet, I would like them to get more attention so I can learn more about them.  Is that too self-serving?

Sad but true.

Among prog. fans the subgenres postrock, krautrock, RIO, Zeuhl,prog folk seem to be quite underrated.

Symphonic:I think Gentle Giant and Focus are underrated.

Prog. Metal: Fates Warning and Psychhotic Waltz are underrated .

Among others.

Yesterday I started a thread entitled "How about this new prog", most of the bands in my list should get more attention like Spanish Bijou and Senogul, French Nemo and Maldoror, Argentine Nexus and Bauer, Japanese Interpose, UK Willowglass and Italian Ubi Maior and La Maschera Di Cera .. so much wonderful symphonic rock is overlooked ..  .. GO AND DISCOVER THEM, PROGHEADS!!

I only know Senogul and they are very interesting, IMO.

I started the same thread half a year ago. The 2 that I suggested were not mentioned in this thread even once so :

Robert Wyatt - A unique voice, does music sounds like no one else does. Rock bottom is a masterpiece that should be in the top 10 of any prog list IMO.

Talk talk - their 2 last albums "Spirit of eden" & "Laughing stock" are great orchestral albums and rarely ever mentioned here. Again they have a very unique sound.

I guess there are many others mainly in the non english bands but those are english and still get no respect here for some odd reason.
