I am a big fan of progressive and psychedelic music – Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree – but never really researched it enough to get to know many more bands than what I’ve listed.
However, I am tired of listening to the same old stuff, so I want to discover more bands from this genre.
Help me, Captain Awesome!

Anvith,
Not a problem my awesome friend. I must admit, I’ve never actually heard of Porcupine Tree, but I am a huge fan of Radiohead. Thom Yorke actually got his dance moves from me.
I think seeking new music is important and awesome. It’s a little hard to call something progressive rock after you’ve heard it 100 times.
I’ve done my best to give you music similar to Radiohead, Pink Floyd and Porcupine Tree, and I’ve also chucked in a few tracks I just think are awesome and that you’ll like.
1. Godspeed You! Black Emperor – ‘Sleep’
2. Tame Impala – ‘Solitude Is Bliss’
3. Gong – ‘Pinkle Ponkle’
4. The Silents – ‘Nightcrawl’
5. Pond – ‘Psychedelic Mango Vision’
6. Tangerine Dream – ‘Ashes To Ashes’
7. Neu! – ‘Hallogallo’
8. Emerson, Lake & Palmer – ‘Karn Evil 9′
9. Simple Minds – ‘Theme For Cities’
10. Alan Parsons Project – ‘Lucifer’
Yours Awesomely,
Captain Awesome
