This band was just added ( http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=9196" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=9196 ) and I was interested to see that they completed on America's Got Talent in 2011. Now they are not a typical prog band (whatever typical prog is!), but they certain seem interesting and pretty unique. Of course the panel on the show hated them ("too weird", "bad songwriting"). I liked it. The host, Nick Cannon, seemed to appreciate them a bit more.

Haven't even listened to any of their albums yet, but I plan to.

Anyway, just wanted to point them out here.
