Progressive Metal Music

Great album all around, the track In The White even inspired a DnD character of mine

While it's post metal, I'd wager there's also prog metal mixed in too

This album, Somewhere Along The Highway, and The Raging River are my faves from them. In terms of tracks, Inland Rain from A Dawn to Fear, Dark City Dead Man from SATH, and Wave After Wave from The Raging River are my top tracks

Can't have a prog metal community without Gojira

Any love for the new Avenged Sevenfold album?, listened to it about twice fully. Its a bit disjointed feeling at times, but im really digging this song in particular, also Ordinary is great

I know it's a bit of a Dream Theater homage of a tune. But This song absolutely fucking bangs

Given we all live in a decidedly niche music sphere, I thought it might be helpful if we share our tips/tricks for finding new artists. Here's my tried and true: everynoise.com

The first Steven Wilson produced album is my pick for the classic Opeth album, expanding the template set on Still Life.

Blackwater Park, however, is so silky smooth. It glides from one moment, one idea, to the next like quicksilver, without ever sacrificing the heaviness that made Oldpeth so special. Åkerfeldt’s vocals feel more polished than ever, with both his reedy cleans and death metal roars bursting with power and emotion, while the riffs and leads laid down by him and Peter Lindgren, together with the huge bass performance from Martin Mendez, gives the whole record a gorgeous, rich texture.
