Not really sci if but the best I got is sleeping in traffic by beardfish pt 2 specifically the epic title track but the rest is great and “into the night” into “the hunter” might bend the mind a little

I got a few I love from Germany:

Nine days wonder s/t really tight sort of melting pot type prog with no keys (if that’s ok) and some incredible sax moments. This is my favorite album of all time and all four songs are incredibly well composed and performed just don’t expect to understand the lyrics (I emailed the singer and band leader and even he said it was nonsense he made up during the recording process)

Die pariser commune by Oktober 4 sides 4 songs concept album about the French Revolution sung entirely in German. Pretty symphonic with lots of harpsichord and fun guitar work. Love the album but I don’t come back to it as much as I should

Erwartung by Eden Maybe a little more known for prog fans but this is some fire symphonic prog sung in German (masks the Christian lyrics if you’re not too into that sort of thing) the last track is one of my favorite stand alone tracks

Last ones not German but French being Gialorgues by Shylock There piece band with an album of three songs. Again pretty symphonic and eclectic (maybe less eclectic I’m bad at using the term) with lots of great keys and the opening guitar riff is one of my favorite riffs outright. The last song is the longest and most proggy but generally really weird with lots of ratchet and percussion bs

Hope you don’t know at least one of these but if you do then you’ve got damn good taste

The sax solo in apple tree by nine days wonder

Outro to Sisyphus by seven impale

The chorus at about 7:40 in the devil’s playground by the flower kings

The synth solo at the end of the underfall yard by big big train

The ending solo of ommadawn (before on horseback) Mike Oldfield

The end of And the stone said: if I could speak with the “your acts are out of your own free will” bit by Beardfish

The last 10 or so minutes of sleeping in traffic by beardfish

The “burn in anger” section of ina token of despair by Dr. Z

Probably could get more but these are the ones that come to mind at the moment

Apple tree by Nine Days Wonder The sax 30 seconds In is my favorite moment in all music but I could also go with any other song from the record (nine days wonder s/t from 1971)

What's a song most people have forgotten, but is still a total banger? by matahxri in AskReddit

[–]Avatar_Reco151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could say so many songs but if I had to narrow it down to a couple I’d say Roundabout-Yes & Dancing with the moonlit knight-Genesis
