I concur, but even apart from that, Ever is outstanding. My favorite IQ album.

Right now I'm listening to Into The Night. And I'm really enjoying it. Thank you LOL

You might also like the latest by Believe, a related group, called "Seven Widows".  Brilliant

I have listened to it already. A brilliant album. Actually it's the first album that introduced me to Neo-Prog. Beautiful soaring guitar solos. But I don't consider it heavy (compared to something like The Road Of Bones for example).

I did. And I found a few. But it doesn't have a section for "heavy" Neo-Prog.

Heavy neo-prog? That makes me think immediately of Leaves by Nine Stones Close. A stellar album.

yes, I forgot about them, although they're more of a progressive metal band than neo-prog (IMO)
