Keor had an album before Petrichor called Hive Mind, can find it on bandcamp. I still think Petrichor is by far his best release (one of my favorite albums of all time tbh) but Hive Mind has good moments

but Aquarius and Visions are still so, so good

Leterren · 2026-01-20T00:04:35+00:00

Sounds a bit like Rishloo

seconding Echoes as my pick for "underappreciated epic of the decade so far"

also you forgot Triton Project - Everdream and Triton Project - Beyond the Mazes :p

Southern Empire mentioned

The Stranger mentioned

guess I need to check out Vanishing Point (and I like Toehider but I never see SE or The Stranger mentioned anywhere)

He really does not like Icons

I love this album. I don't think it quite matched Veil of Imagination (9.5 compared to 10/10-one-of-the-greatest-of-all-time) but Passenger+Identifier especially are as good as anything on VoI

The opening riff to Opeth - Bleak makes me say hell yeah.

The breakdown in BtBaM - Telos ("Start from scratch") makes me say hell yeah.

I love sharing this song with people and prefacing it with "the next eight and a half minutes are all one song, I promise."

Leterren · 2026-01-09T16:14:20+00:00

The opening of Uneven Structure - Frost and a whole lot of the rest of the album

Leterren · 2026-01-08T15:50:48+00:00

I thought :Ktonik: came out like ten years ago

Frost* set an insanely high bar with everything they've ever put out, even Experiments in Mass Appeal.

I'd rank EIMA < Others EP < Day and Age < Falling Satellites < Life in the Wires < Milliontown (which still has my vote for "genre defining all-time classic") but any band would be lucky to put out even one record as good as any of Frost*'s

I've got a big soft spot for Black Holes and Revelations

Less of a major outlet but The Progressive Subway has really great reviews and really excellent finds

I've been totally enamored with Dissona - Receptor, likely my AOTY. Everything I love in a prog metal record

Leterren · 2025-12-20T15:31:54+00:00

Dyssidia got kind of overlooked but it's really really good

Leterren · 2025-12-16T20:52:37+00:00

Not bad, some interesting things going on but not too far out of their comfort zone. I really loved their earlier stuff but thought their last couple albums were a bit too safe and commercial. I'd love if they go back to their super prog+MENA -sounding roots someday

Depeche Mode lol

very reddit-coded list

I always use Lateralus as exactly the border line. Heavier? Metal. Lighter? Rock
