Do you mean Sasquamo manifestation of don't -know-what ???
Ah, you should not take it seriously, but if you hear from Sasquamo next time that Kino or Frost or OSI Free is a Masterpiece, bear in mind it comes from a person who thinks that Lamb and Relayer are bad etc etc etc .... Very useful indeed.

And next time you call something a masterpiece I'll bear in mind it comes from a person who thinks Lamb and Relayer are good. Haha It's all fun and games until someone someone starts not liking the obligatory bands and albums, isn't it?

No, it's always fun and games....or at least it should be.
If you ask me, there are no "obligatory" albums, or if you think there are, you will have to tell me what are they then.

I already promised... I'll stop doing it so frequently... but whenever I see cheap shots, I will counter with cheap shots... and as cheap shots are, well, cheap, is it really so big of a deal??  I promise, I'll do it once a week from now on....  (unless is in the midst of a serious discussion and serves me as an argument, of course)

I would have to suggest:
Trinity - Precious Seconds
An English band supposedly influenced by Floyd/Pendragon, but in reality sounding very inferior to either, and with a singer who would do best sticking to karaoke.

It's really painful to see Kino mentioned several times here (especially by another Kansas fan) since I believe their album is the best neo-prog act of 21st century so far 
To answer the original question, I would go with Queensr˙che's eponym EP. I didn't succeed to stand any song all the way through but I'll try again : I like to hurt myself from time to time ... and I haven't written a one star review yet !

well, Queensryche EP is a US power metal gem and not prog at all and maybe if you are not fan of the 80's US power metal scene (Fates Warning, Vicious Rumours, Titan Force, Savatage etc) there is no point in reviewing it at all...

yes, from their debut to Awaken... that last one is half and half, power progressive...

^^^Ah, OK then. I like most Spectre Within and Awaken The Guardian by them, but never ever thought about it as of power metal (the style I generally dislike).

^ "Script" is actually my all-time favourite album.
Considering 90s Marillion - yep, they're weak.
I dislike Power Metal and especially Power-Prog too...and I do not like FATES WARNING either(only "Disconnected" has some nice tracks)...but I like QUEESNRYCHE!!! Geoff is an incredible vocalist!

IMO, Marillion released only great albums, from their debut to This Strange Engine... i used to love power metal but i can't stand it now...
Fates' 1988-2001 period is awesome... A Pleasant Shade Of Grey is the best concept/progressive metal album ever..
Queensryche are great and most underrated.. Tate is God...

You must be right. This kind of power metal is just not my cup of tea and I am a nice guy who doesn't want to harm anybody. I guess my avatar is already more than many prog fans can endure
So I won't review this EP, I promise (but I don't swear)
