The closest thing I can think of is Saviour Machine, a band that combines metal, prog and goth and sounds like no other band I know. Their second album is awesome, and their "Legend " trilogy is really impressive, even if , like me, you're no christian!

There's a band called Fields of the Nephilim who are supposedly a bit of both. Also a band who has been around for quite a while called Black Tape For a Blue Girl. Also, I'm surprised no one has mentioned Dead Can Dance.

TBH, my first thought went to early Dead Can Dance, before Devill Doll... But if you want to enlarge a bit the definition, Art Zoyd, Univers Zéro and Présent are all very gothic by the sheer darkness and lugubrious settings of their music?..... and Shub-Niggurath goes a couple of steps further.

Dead Can Dance. My particular faves from the band are Into The Labyrinth and In The Realm Of A Dying Sun.

Yes, I mentioned the Nephilim earlier in the thread. It's only really their album Elyzium that's got elements of prog in it. Good call on Dead can Dance. They can be proggy from time time. It's world music really though, not goth. Their first couple of albums were slightly goth. |

Teo albums instantly spring to mind:
Baron - Columns Kayo Dot - Plastic House On Base Of Sky Love Fields Of The Nephilim too....but they were never really prog imo. |

Goth prog is widely present but mainly in a more prog related way.
Paradise Lost Moonspell Saviour Machine (obviously of course. Probably the purest prog n' goth combination you'll find.) My dying Bride Opeth (early stages) Fields of The Nephilim The Gathering (early Stages) Katatonia Agalloch Devil Doll ( big time goth prog here, actually. Check out Eliogabulus) Draconian Swallow the sun Artesia Dead Can Dance Gary Numan ( very Bowie like. Replicants (tubeway army) is a good example. ) Three Monks (Neo gothic progressive toccatas) Goblin. (Nuff said. ;) |

You got it my beautiful friend. A couple of albums right there that are a real treasure and I am very thankful to have them in my sonic arsenal. Tell you what, Michael. I'm like you where I have not spun either of those albums in quite some time, so since I have a week off from work this week, I shall be catching up on the some critical listening and will for sure spin those 2 albums by this weeks end. |
