good to see a shout for PROTEST THE HERO but AWESOME to see aknowledgment of CYNIC - Focus is an incredibly moving and innovative album from 93 and a compelling experience to discover years later but Traced In Air is such a piece of art.  Sweeping, gripping, dreamy and finite.....
 
Also great discovery to be added KARNIVOOL, these guys know how to write and move rhythm and groove.
 
SPYLACOPA need to get a mention too, members of Dillinger and Made Out of Babies this is such a tug of war between retro and advanced hardcore, post-rock and prog metal leanings.
 
ALOHA are back this month with Home Acres (it's not obviously prog but listen, persue their catalogue and you'll here the experimentation)......and the lead sings likes Gentle Giant so he must "know" ;)
 
First comment in ages, couple years maybe, nice to be back friends and foes :P

Still too early in the game for this years discoveries, but since this post was started in awhile ago, I'll share who I got excited about last year:  Oceansize, Orphan Project, and Katatonia.  Bands not recently discovered but recently cemented my view that they indeed have a bright future: Diminishtry and Sketching in Stereo (new album soon to come and with a distictive prog twist) both very talented groups!

You know I'm sharing the same air you're breathing...

I agree El, Kate Bush is awesome. There is a live performance from London available. Consult IMDB for more details.

No doubts
 
5BRIDGES - The Thomas Tracks: Great band and better album.
 
The King by Life Line Project neither Whispers & Screams by Shadow Circus are discoveries, because I already knew how great both bands are.
