I've recently been WOWed by these three albums: Canvas Solaris - "Penumbra Diffuse" Zero Hour - "The Towers Of Avarice" Spastic Ink - "Ink Complete" (okay, so they make terrible titles, but at least they sound great) So in this thread, im both: 1) recommending these artsits and albums to all lovers of prog-metal, especially those with a post-rock background 2) Asking for suggestions and recommendations for more artists that sound like these guys Many thanks in advance! |

Cool, Zero hour and Canvas are awesome bands, I would definitely recommend the other albums they have released. As for similar groups, the bands Andromeda and Spiral Architect are very technically driven and are probably a perfect match for what you are looking for. This next one is a little out there, but the album Focus by a band named Cynic might be something you'd like as well. For Andromeda, II = I is a good starter album and Spiral Architect, I believe, only has one album out called A Septics Universe. |

If you like Spastic Ink, maybe Don Caballero will be to your taste:

| Spastic Ink is awesome. Recommend them highly, the other two aren't as good. |

mmmmm Andromeda - Extension of the Wish. Don't get their second album though, it's not nearly as good. -------------
