Topic: Symphonic Prog with neoprog touch Posted: December 14 2012 at 16:35
Could u suggest me some good symphonic prog band with a modern approach with some etnic element and much melodic like neoprogressive. No band organ oriented or with vintage sound; although i can tollerate the mellotron or analog moog
No Flower king, Anglagard, Transatlantic, Kaipa, or Spock Beard
When you mean by ethnic, you mean other than occidental people. It's easy to find a little ethnic sound in some rock music band, but to a new prog band with melody and neo prog sound, that's much harder. I can only think in some bands like Collage, Subterra or Quidam that play some prog rock that is typical to the country they came from.
Music is the refuge of souls ulcerated by happiness.

I looking for Symphonic bands, not neoprog bands. They should be stay in symphonic category, so i take off the ethnic feature to be much easy the search.
For example a band that i like much is Clearlight, although it came from the middle 70. They haven't that old sound...and sound more modern!!!

I don't notice any neoprog elements in Pablo El Enterrador
really ?
Listen to the song below, the drums remind a lot Pallas' early records, Castanarc's 'journey to the east' or the demo versions on the remastered version of Marillion's 'fugazi'.

I like the symphonic band of the '80:
Asia Minor Anyone Daughter Solaris
And some of the '90 like:
Drama Apocalypse
Lets see:
Cairo by Cairo
Midas II by Midas
Au Bout du Couloir by Raison du Plus
Decade Reference by Salmon
Tunnel by Abissi Infiniti
Oceanworld by Autumn
Tall Tales by Crucible
Into the Epicenter by Episode
You have a lot to start with.

La Locanda Delle Fatte's "Forse Le Lucciole Non Si Amano Piu" for me quite represents the "missing link" between Symphonic and Neo, great album if you don't mind lyrics in italian.
