I am  very impressed with this band, they have a lot of arabic imfluences like spanish prog, they have a very unique sound.

Also of note are AVENGED SEVENFOLD they are not as prog although I can really hear influences from Queen, to Boston, to other Prog harmonic Guitar interplay between the two lead guitarists.

and of course Mars Volta, Coheed and Cambria

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think death metal could be very prog. For example Meschuggah isn't very prog. I thin metal could be prog like all other rock genres

Just my opinion and I`m  probably the only one saying it ..but .. I believe Rush invented prog metal and most of the better prog metal bands follow in the tradition of what rush set out to do in the 70`s and did so well .. the Prog metal bands to look out for today are .. Shadow Gallery .. Enchant .. Ice Age (first two cd`s) .. Threshold .. Redemption .. Symphony X .. Dream Theater .. Echolyn .. Tiles

^i agree - the early Rush albums were pretty much prog metal - plenty of prog metal around today - enough for everyone - coheed and cambria keep up the Rush connection

^ ok, then I decide (for myself) that their songwriting hasn't got much in common with anything Rush have done. The only similarity are the voices of the singers.

Art Rock sounds fine to me - some of their tracks pretty metal to me - so long C & C are on PA

I never seem to hear all that much from the US. There's a fair amount of death metal, I guess.
