Some. "Present" by Van der Graaf Generator. I don't know how "recent" your "recent" is though, else I could give a better answer.

  • Fantomas - Suspended Animation
    Experimental Metal 
  • Redemption - The Fullness of Time
    Prog Metal similar to SyX, Fates Warning and Dream Theater
  • Presto Ballet - Peace Among the Ruins
    Interesting mix of Neo-Prog and traces of Prog Metal. 
  • Beyond Twilight - Section X
    Good metal album with serious quantities of progressive elements. 
  • Wobbler - Hinterland
    Great "retro" Symphonic Prog - resembling Anglagard. 
  • Opeth - Ghost Reveries
    Progressive Metal MASTERPIECE.
  • Echolyn & Pendragon ..
    Neo-Prog, one more experimental and the other simply majestic.

Why, I recommend all of them of course.  I edited some further comments into my post.

Someone already said "Present" which is really good. I would have to add "Dark Matter" by IQ which is one of the best things I've ever heard, Glass Hammer's new one which I got today and probably the new Pendragon one which is out in 5 days time.

Keane, Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Coldplay, U2, Tori Amos, Green Day, to name a few.

That's a really odd list ... I saw Keane one month ago ... they were really underwhelming, as were U2. Muse and Tori Amos are great, Frank Ferdinand is ok, Coldplay - they're not hurting anyone. But Green Day are really bad IMO.

There's nothing odd about it. It simply means we have different tastes.

Agreed ... maybe I was a little harsh because some of them aren't progressive at all.

Not really a fan of Coldplay or Tori Amos, but I'd agree with you on the others.

^ I'm aware of it now. But even in non-prog, Keane, U2 and Green Day suck ... IMO.

One month ago I saw Keane and U2 in Munich ... both were huge disappointments. I was never much into U2 and only went to the concert because some friends of mine are huge fans. Keane were even better than U2, but - still not good.

Most of you are talking about prog albums, while this is a 'NON-prog music' thread.

But if I had to cite some good NON-prog recent (including the nineties) music :

Grzegorz Turnau : 'Pod swiatlo'

Zbigniew Preisner : 'Glosy'

Alain Souchon : 'la vie Théodore" 

Noa : 'calling'

Manu Katché : 'Neighbourhood' (not released yet but Manu can't disappoint if he turns jazz)

Kate Bush : 'Aeria' (not published yet but if this took 12 years for preparing, it has to be good)

Janusz Radek : 'Serwus Madonna'

And Youssou N'Dour's  most recent album 'Nothing's in vain' is pretty good too (it feartures once again the great Manu Katché on drums)

Youy KNOW it homey!  The new KB is going to be awesome!!!

Some other new stuff out recently which I think is pretty good:

MIA- Arular
New Pornographers- Twin Cinema

AND although the music isn't new, its still worth noting that Westbound records in the UK has remastered and repackaged the early FUNKADELIC output this year.  I just got the remastered version of Maggot Brain (w/3 bonus tracks!) and it totally kicks ass.

Most of the newer music I like isn't prog, but there's some newer prog I like:

System of a Down (at least their newest album)
The Killers
The White Stripes (Jack White is an amazing guitarist, but Meg White is a terrible drummer, all she does is keep the beat)
Mr Bungle
The Mars Volta
Wilco
Dream Theater

The Arcade Fire--they've received non-stop hype but they deserve every second of it. Their album "Funeral" is the kind that just get's better with each listening. Their arrangements are very sophisticated and multi-layered, and even their lyrics are good. Listen to the album, then listen to it again.  You will love it by the third listen.

Other good recent albums--Black Mountain. Another Canadian band--they are Black Sabbath channeled by stoner indie kids. LCD Soundsystem--it begins like crazy dance party music, but the album quickly becomes a lot more. By the end of the album it sounds very Eno-esque.

There's always good music out there. It can be frustatingly hard to find, though.

I love Volta, Tool, Porcupine Tree, Opeth, DT, etc...

There's still some hope out there for prog.

Many great things...The last Manic Street Preachers and Coldplay albums...A project called Shpongle with the album 'Nothing lasts but nothing is lost',and Deadwing from Porcupine Tree  is great too...And i don't think that there's somebody here that didn't enjoy the last System of a down record...

Logos, check this out if you have time! You might like their music, as I know you like extreme metal! It's slow, mushroom influenced music from the dying cabin of Aleksi Kivi.

Is Dream Theater "Octavarium" recent enough?

I posted this in the non-prog forum a few days ago, but since the topic was raised here...

My Morning Jacket's new album, Z, is the best new non-prog disc that I've heard in couple of years.  It's extrememly creative... similarities range from Flaming Lips and Grandaddy to Neil Young and The Band.  And it rocks.

Some new albums that I enjoy are...the new opeth, arcturus, sigh, and porcupine tree.  I am looking forward to hearing Stolt's new album as well as Riverside.
