Birds and Buildings and Deluge Grander are worth checking out. Both are on the Emkog label and both inlcude Dan Britton on keyboards. Musically B&B is more fast instrumental passages and towards jazz while DG is modern symphonic and loads of Mellotron. All Good.

Thanks again everyone for the recs. I already know Sufjan Stevens, Druckfarben, Kayo Dot and Birds And Buildings. I only knew Elephant9 from their Atlantis album but that vid posted was really great. The Ske album was also really good. I thought Wobbler were just cliche retro-prog stuff but that one track posted caught my attention. What little of Dreadnaught I had heard didn't do much for me; I really liked their newest EP however. I didn't enjoy Deluge Grander as much as I enjoy Birds And Buildings.

Thanks again and keep the suggestions coming. My only problem is finding time to listen to all this stuff. LOL

I'm familiar with those albums. I was specifically talking about the 'post' part of E/PM; often I evaluate artists who could just be easily described as 'post-metal' as much as 'post-rock'. Basically, I'm not looking for anything that could be described as 'post rock', 'math rock' or 'post metal' from 2010-2014.

You definitely need to check out Electric Orange - Krautrock From Hell. Strong Sailor vibe due to the jangly nature of the rhythm section and flügel organ. Start out with the track Necronomicon (i believe it's in two part on youtube but am on the phone so no links).
Setna - Guérison. I have recommended this 2013 release all day, so you get it too. Smooth, melodic and spacious Zeuhl.

I recommend you to check Edison's Children and Days Between Stations.Both produce melancholic and haunting prog in the way I like!
