Prog Rock is not dead

[pauln]

As a Fish and Marillion fan I knew who Steven Wilson (singer/guitarist) was from his great work with them. I had'nt listened to his band Porcupine Tree until recently and i'm liking it. The bands been round since 87 and the new album The Incident has apparently charted. See what you think.

One progrock band that is still touring is Colloseium, [sp] or they could be working under their other name of Greenslade, still touring around the world, but not to such big venues as they used to,

Dave Greenslade used to live next door to me, it was superb to hear him jamming on his C5 when I was working in the garage.

Not got the edge of the 70's stuff I think but I'll deffo have a listen to some of their other stuff when I get a min. Not keen on the overall mix if I'm honest, comes across as a tiny bit wooly if you see what I mean. Good though
