There's a few good ones on here, but Areknames gets my vote. Hardly a typical Italian prog band, more along the lines of Anekdoten meets Porcupine Tree meets VdGG. Terrific vocalist, nice sorrowful moods, plenty of light and shade. A wonderful modern progressive band! I've enjoyed some of the work of others on this list like Hostsonaten and The Watch too. I think the most recent one I've heard was the latest from Mangala Vallis, and if I recall, the vocals sounded like that guy from Pain of Salvation, so definately not for me. |

If you like Areknames i recommend you Men Of Lake (Ouch!!! i forgot to add them in the list) , "Out of the Water" it´s my favorite album, they sound like a mellow vdgg meets KC |

I'll take Moongarden simply for their Round Midnight album, also The Watch brings me a lot of enjoyment. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Hostsonaten, followed by Mangalla Vallis and Ezra Winston. The EW album I heard is a lost masterpiece IMO. ------------- A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!! |

Hostsonaten! Summereve and Winterthrough are stunning. No vocals though! ------------- I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth. |

I've heard about a third of these bands and Asgard is my favourite by a mile. I especially love Esoteric Poem. ------------- https://wytchcrypt.wixsite.com/mutiny-in-jonestown" rel="nofollow - Mutiny in Jonestown : Progressive Rock Since 1987 |

no vote because I love at least half of them...maybe Asgard, Hostsonaten and Ezra Winston if I had to vote a top 3. ------------- When the power of love overcomes the love of power,the world will know peace... listen to www.justincaseradio.com , the first ever Greek Progressive Rock radio |

This was easy for me, I love Moongarden. ------------- -------someone please tell him to delete this line, he looks like a noob------- I don't have an unnatural obsession with Disney Princesses, I have a fourteen year old daughter and coping mechanisms. |

| I don't know any of this bands. Actually, though I do like some RPI bands, I haven't delved so deep. However, somehow searching for italian bands that sing in english wouldn't interest me so much, part of the charm of RPI is that it is sun in italian, the music kind of looses it's identity otherwise. |

| Of course. The italian language is the heart of RPI. |
