Progressive Metal
Progressive metal (also known as “prog metal”) is a metal genre which combines heavy metal with progressive rock, resulting in odd time signatures, adventurous timbres and complex compositional structures. Technical proficiency is a large part of categorizing the genre apart from power metal, and plays a generally large part in progressive metal. Progressive metal songs are generally longer than the status quo, often comparable to that of doom metal in length. Edit this Artist photo: Intronaut

Could anybody recommend me a band from this genre? I like prog metal, but I'm sick of all those DT copycats. Something unique like Ayreon or Beyond Twilight.
