I used to host a prog rock radio show in Fayetteville called The PROGram
My top 5
Genesis (Gabriel vocals only, duh)
Yes
Gong
Magma
Van der Graaf Generator
Amon Duul II gets an honorable mention.

I think the modern catalog of prog rock is some of the finest we've had
Songs like This Armistice by TREOS or The Difference between Medicine and Poison Is in the Dose by Circa Survive are two examples of greatly layered and complex songs with great lyrics. The former about the mind trying to control the body without involving the desires of the heart and the latter about writer's block

Circa Survive
Didn't expect to see them mentioned in here. Anthony Green's side project with the Rx Bandits is another really good one. It is what finally got me past Anthony's vocals, then the production that Botrill did on Blue Sky Noise cemented them in the rotation.
The Sound of Animals Fighting - I, The Swan

Can anyone name some recnt or current bands of the prog scene?... talking 06-current. I have struggled lately to keep up with the progressive genre, prog metal more specifically but I like any GOOD music(not country).

Circa Surive and Fair to Midland are ok, not my cup of tea. I haven't really heard anything new from them so I am speculating.
Fhak 30 seconds to Mars
The other bands in the list, are they similar to Circa Surive and Fair to midland??

well they are both very different from each other and they cover a lot of ground in a couple of genres.
Are you sure you like prog rock?
TREOS is its own animal and is highly addicting if you like true prog rock. I'd recommend following along the lyrics because they are amazing

Not really. I love bands like Mew and Sigur Ros, so high isn't the problem. It's the whiny sound that bothers me. It's a lot worse on their older albums, but I really feel like working with David Botrill taught them how to use his vocals properly. Then again, I think David Botrill could make a pack of howling dogs sound like the Philharmonic.

that song kinda reminds me of Damiera a little, who I also love

Another person whose roots aren't really prog, but has definitely swayed that way in his solo work:
John Frusciante (formerly of RHCP)

He said he was more a fan of prog metal vs prog rock. I'm in the same boat really. I love prog metal, but there are very few prog rock bands I like.

I love prog metal
Secret and Whisper is a bit on the hard side as well

I take it you'll be going tomorrow night... I can't make it, and it sucks.
