Seeds of Gold by Neal Morse (from Testimony Two) is really good.

"Seas of Change" by Galahad is 42 minutes long, which is considerably epic if you ask me.

Some good suggestions here that I'd never heard, including Magenta We Are Legend, SWANS' Glowing Man, Manic Whale's "Derelict," and the Napier's Bones selection. Thanks! 

The Haken epics, Discipline, Ephemeral Sun, Moon Safari, Djam Karet, Beardfish, Guapo Obscure and Astra stuff never really did anything for me. 

Thanks for the reminder of the Shamblemaths stuff. I like that!

Just a few seconds shorter than 15 minutes, I'll post it anyway:
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

This one is great, but I think Celestial Elixir is even better!

Djam Karet - The Trip

Wobbler's "From Silence to Somewhere" for sure. One of the best prog epics I've ever heard too.
