Can I recommend something non prog but very original and multi-style band?
They are Chico Science and Nação Zumbi (Zumbi Nation) and have recorded two albums in 90'years. After Chico's death, they recorded other albums, calling theyselves just "Nação Zumbi". The two first albums are wonderful!
They merge rock with psych, rap, afro music, embolada, maracatu (brazilian styles)

Just listen it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYytZEO-GAA
And this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-25RDaQzxc

A proof latin-american music can sound rough; it changes from the ever joyful/sugar sounding music used as the only available means to forget feelings of desperation.

Worth sharing it !!

...Those videos at the same time (for metal lovers / adjusting volume faders)




Among other experiments with organ + "stoner"...

How about  considering those stoner metal musicians as if one were a very close, loving pal with a quiet and safe life

I recommend these argentine bands and these albums:
Pescado Rabioso - Artaud (one of the best album i ever heard, by Luis Alberto Spinetta) Is not so Progessive 
La máquina de hacer pájaros - Homonym album
Crucis - Los delirios del mariscal 
Invisible - El jardín de los presentes

One song from each album:

Artaud:


La máquina de hacer pájaros:


Los delirios del mariscal:


El jardin de los presentes:


Enjoy

They all can be recommended indeed...Crucis's drums sounds very, very much like Bruford 70's !!

Thanks! You are rigth, argentine bands always were influenced by foreign musicians, and i think this case is no exception! We have many great artists, you got to listen Aquellare and Almendra too. They founded the argentine rock. Greetings from the south!

I recently discovered an album titled "No tengas meed," by a project called Kant Freud Kafka. Very good album with lots of classical and sympho prog influences.

Tim Bowness's-- Abandoned Dancehall Dreams

Those who are unfamiliar with TB's sound, check out the track 'No Celebrations.'
It's a bonus track off OSI's- Blood album. Gives you a good idea how well this guy can sing.
Overall his album is a big surprise for me in 2014. It's up there with some of other strong releases.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

I LOVE the voice on Lois Spinetta. Love Spinetta Jade, Invisible (especially El Jardin, which goes on my 'Top 10 albums'), and yet I've never heard Artaud. Thank you. SO good.

do you know these guys? The video is perfectly executed, and the song is also quite beautiful and interesting on its own.. it's a nice concept...

Was anyone else OCD enough to go through most of the top 100 albums in every sub-genre listed in the archives? Was able to quickly tell if I liked something or not by consulting YouTube, which had a track from every single release without exception, no matter how obscure. Waded through an ocean of well-rated drek, but found a river of gems, more than enough to make it worthwhile. (The work of RPI fans in hunting down and publicizing so much stuff I'd have zero chance of otherwise encountering is especially to be commended.) It's breathtaking what this site has accomplished, simply amazing.

Unique band from Scotland - The Blue Ship (before they were called "Brotherhood of The Blue Ship"). When I first heard them, I listened to the album three times in a row.
In PA there is no mention of them.

I recommend The Psychic Paramount - a New York-based band for fans of really raw, intense, brain-melting psych-rock.

Here is one that I think everybody should check out. Necromancy's newest release "A Glimpse of Possible Endings." 


At his point if you want a copy you have to email the band at [email protected]

Lots of amazing discoveries, this is a very valuable thread !!


Here's "Porcelaine": the melody of that home-made song that narrowly escaped from deletion on the net, came back in my mind constantly without me knowing where I'd first heard it...It took weeks before I'd think of the right link !!


And Mermaid's Crimson Bough: I'm really fond of the tempo change like in 0h42
