Thank you for this!

oh and i forgot this opeth album especially, i LOVED it back in the day. steve w. also collaborated and produced this one, worth a listen totally.
https://youtu.be/cGPRoszjnWA
opeth are a pretty eclectic band honestly. even if you're not down with the more death metal-y stuff, their past three albums have been much more traditionally prog in a very porc. tree vein, so check those out maybe.

Am i a cynical prick or none of these sound even close to tool? Maybe opeth
>>74293061
Nice taste I really like those bands too
Here's prog chart I made
>>74293163
If you want the most blatant Tool worship listen to Soen
>>74293163
a little bit of both, but there really aren't THAT many bands that sound much like tool.
tool, more than anything, are pretty much just a highly dressed up and technical alt-rock band. not that there's anything wrong with that, but desu most alt and radio rock bands sound more like tool that stuff that's actually considered prog metal.
>>74293351
Im pretty certain Soen is yet another one of Keenans small time bands, only he is wearing a shit ton of makeup and prosthetics.
this album blows me away

Haken, Leprous, and Intronaut are also great recs. Rishloo too.
>>74290906
Riverside is the next step for you. Start with this one
>>74290906
Consider the Source is the Apex of prog. Losten to tihai for the striaght guy.
Always been amazed they're so underground. Talked about them 2 years on here and only ever found 1 other fan
>>74294678
I've heard their name floating around a lot. haven't listened though.
ITT
>>74294706
I post about them occasionally. Middle eastern jazz metal. Been following them 6 years now
https://youtu.be/IVHnVDg7IJI
>>74290953
Why?
>>74294720
According to what that chart implies name one (metal) album not nu. Male.
>>74290906

Cynic.
