Almost as good as Beige .
On a more serious note, Syd Arthur are excellent ('mellow' but not 'depressing', hopefully?)

Anyone said Coheed and Cambria yet? Not really my bag, but I think they have some Rush-esque/ Proggy moments...?
Van Der Graaf Generator.
I cant believe nobody has mentioned them yet. I know they arent a guitar band as such but they are right up there. All of their 70s stuff is fantastic and they are still going strong today producing decent albums.
Peter Hammill is a genius
And yes Coheed... Long time fan, seen them live 2 or 3 times. I don't like anything before the Good Apollo... album. But their most recent double offering is awesome.
I forget people label them as "proggy" lol
Later Iron Maiden - Brave New World, Dance of Death, Final Fontier - are quite proggy. As is Seventh son of a seventh son.
All worth a listen.
Ringleader of the Cambridge cartel, pedal champ and king of the dirt boxes (down to 21)
i'll add:
Someone mentioned Mars Volta. I've got a handful of their albums.
- Oceansize (I have the Self-Preserved While the Bodies Float Up album)
- Pure Reason Revolution
And some others I don't have yet that I would consider progressive...
- OSI
- Circus Maximus
- Avantasia (almost breaks my "no symphonic metal" rule! But not quite)
Diagonals.
Purson.
Curculus.
The Earls Of Mars.
For older stuff you may not know,
Bodkin
Gracious
Aardvark
Gravy Train
My Solid Ground
Fuzzy Duck
What other albums would you recommend? The little pack of 5 studio albums is always floating around in the shops over here.
For Jethro Tull, I would recommend Thick as a Brick and Minstrel in the Gallery. If you want more folky styles, Songs From The Wood is a good starter.
Also, Genesis' Selling England by the Pound is a great album.
