Red and pic related are my top 2 currently.

Peter Hammill might be my favorite singer. His voice and performance is so outstanding.

Well prog is objectively one of the worst genres out there, if you know prog artists outside of those two your a fat fucking nerd.

So the more musical complexity increases, the more objectively bad music becomes?

There's an angel standing in the sun,
and he's crying with a loud voice,
"This is the supper of the mighty one",
Lord of Lords,
King of Kings,
Has returned to lead his children home,
To take them to the new Jerusalem.

ITCOTCK, Lizard, LTiA and Red are all much more interesting than Islands. One could even make an argument for Discipline being included above it, too.

Probably the best Tool clone out there

>>72214275
Except they don't sound like Tool. Like, at all. The vocals in Terra and Eidolon were pretty derivative of Maynard's, but Drew kicks them up a notch for Feathergun onward. I think Living with Ghosts is better than anything Tool's ever done.

Definitely overlooked in Soft Machine's discography. Allan really shines on this album. It even features a beautiful acoustic guitar track of the master himself. A great album overall.

>post number series album
That's dodgy territory anon. I'm never bothered following a band along a downward trajectory so I stopped at six. There's a strong general trend of early prog bands falling into decline after a couple of great albums.

>>72214448

This. Goliath is criminally overlooked.

>>72215566
This was their last great album. Listen to it, you won't be disappointed.

Even though it crosses into the realm of jazz fusion, it's a classic nonetheless.

I've avoided his other albums, because of his pop and AOR sensibilities, but is I Robot worth listening to?

One of those beautifully British albums, along with Selling England by the Pound and Octopus.

One of the albums with the most thoroughly realized concepts, along with 666. Make sure you listen to the remastered version. I think the audio engineer who did it is a true genius.

>>72215779
it's honestly one of the greatest prog albums of all time. great production, although it's a bit funkier than a lot of prog. I'd say it's a bit similar to DSOTM

>>722126 best avant-prog band ever. The live album Aerazione and Maledetti are fucking beautiful.

>>72216204
I would also recommend listening to the original version first and then listening to the remastered one. That way, you can see how much of a difference it really made.

>>72213973
agreed, Lady Fantasy is probably the best prog rock song of all time right next to Echoes

>>72212497
