Not really ... what is hard to figure out is what is his definition of "heavy" ... because there are so many things that are so heavy as to be weightless ... up to and including lyrics.

My only thoughts were that I hoped that it would bring about a clearer definition of what he was looking for ... because I'm not sure it is clear at all ... there is a lot of very light stuff in progressive that is very heavy ... however, I am not sure that this is something that he is looking for or wanting.

Embarrassed

it's clear to me what he's looking for, he mentioned after all a couple of bands.

Some NWOBHM bands experimented with prog, at least trying to make songs more elaborated. 

For example Dark Star's Green Peace, or Cloven Hoof's Return of the Passover.

For an up-to-the-mnute suggestion, how about Waste of Space Orchestra:



It's a collaboration between Oranssi Pazuzu and Dark Buddha Rising. The album, Syntheosis, comes out in a couple of weeks.

Cellar Darling.  Their new album (The Spell) is just amazing, as was their first (This Is The Sound).  Not mega-heavy, but definitely prog metal, with folk influence (flute and hurdy-gurdy).  Brilliant!......

Ok, so if you don't know Devin Townsend already, you REALLY should check out his new album Empath!  It is currently blowing my mind.........

You could try Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti, and when you've had enough of that, you could always try Writing on the Wall. Tongue

Unexpect is simultaneously the most chaotic, proggy, heavy, and intense music I've listen to that I actually enjoy. 

Edge of Sanity's album Crimson is also a must
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.
