He doesn't like metal. 

Another suggestion would be Samuel Jackson Five's recent self titled album.

I love the music, however I'm not crazy about the vocals. nevertheless i bought the album "if". really enjoying it.

Is the comment about the vocals just referring to the one album?

My favourote GH album is The Inconsolable Secret which has mainly female vocals. The earlier albums have a mix of male and female while later albums (excluding Three Cheers) have the 'Jon Anderson clone' vocals (initially Carl Groves then Jon Davison) although I like Davison's singing on Cor Cordium very much.

Definitely the new "The Custodian" album. Just discovered them. Probably the best prog rock band to come out of London in a long time! Im new by the way, hi! :D

If you like Beardfish, Discipline, Änglagård and Phideaux (wich are my favourites too), you should try some of the great new italian bands, try to listen to som of these albums and see what you think:

Areknames - Love hate roundtrip (dark Vdgg style, one of my favourites of all time)
La maschera di cera - Luxade
VIII strada - La leggenda della grande porta (great guitar / piano driven prog)
Il tempio delle clessidre - il tempio delle clessidre (this is how prog should sound like)
Gran turismo veloce - Di carne, di anima (modern guitardriven prog)
La coscienza di zeno - Sensitivita (classic new RPI)


Others also recommended:
Karmakanic (first is my favourite)
The gourishankar - 2nd hands
Kaipa - In the wake of evolutions (better than Flowerkings IMHO)

Good luck!
