Obviously more Yes would do generally, but as an absolute Yes freak I gotta recommend some Jon Anderson. His best album is Olias of Sunhillow, but I’d also give a nod to Invention of Knowledge by Anderson/Stolt. Oh yeah, and also Can’t Look Away by Trevor Rabin goes hard.

Bonus: Fish Out of Water by Chris Squire is solid too.

Heart of the Sunrise, by Yes

Maybe a bit out there, but Plains of the Purple Buffalo by *shels is a pretty adventurous listen.

Don’t remember very well how that song went but you might be interested in Histoire Sans Paroles by Harmonium, or the whole Harmonium album. Also Driving to Amsterdam by Khan, Bel Air by Can, Islands by King Crimson (it’s hard to pick songs from KC since they’re all bangers), Ommadawn by Mike Oldfield, Air Born by Camel (like KC, all bangers), Nine Feet Underground by Caravan, Tarkus by Emerson, Lake and Palmer (another one fulla bangers). Some of the members in these bands played on their own and have good stuff, check them out too. Maybe even Never For Ever by Kate Bush but that’s not really rock (not that I personally care, the electric piano and fretless bass are insane, gives me shivers) and I know some more apart from the most well-known bands but I haven’t listened to them much: Straight to the Krakenhouse by Secret Oyster, The Four Horsemen by Aphrodite’s Child, Pequeñas Anécdotas sobre las Instituciones by Sui Generis, A Volte in Instante di Quiete by Locanda Delle Fate.

If you wanna try something more new you might already know King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (Nonagon Infinity and Gumboot Soup would be the ones that align most with the label IMO). There are more newer bands but they’re not my thing.

Btw holy shit some of these are so obscure I’m scared I could be profiled LMAO

I cant find it on youtube but listen to all of Rush’s farewell to kings and hemispheres albums back to back

when dipping your toes into prog rock listen to full albums they’re often connected thematically and musically.

I don’t know if you’re specifically looking for something older, but have you ever listened to the Mars Volta? They are a lot newer than yes, but they have a lot of the same energy as that song. The whole album Deloused in the Comatorium is fantastic, and it has all the same frenetic energy, with jazzy or more melodic parts sprinkled throughout. They also have a varied and robust discography. I’d definitely give them a listen if you haven’t.

Obviously not all songs, but Rise Against have some tracks that are “progressive”, but more so on the critical spectrum. I’d recommend The Numbers specifically. The video even starts off with a quote from Fanon!

Edit: Was told just now I misunderstood prog rock, so sorry for the switch in genre!

I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

King Crimson - Starless

Genesis - Can-Utility and the Coastliners

It’s hard to pick specific songs, but IMO these two + Yes are the prog bands. Album-wise, I recommend fully listening to

• Fragile and Close to the Edge by Yes;
• Foxtrot and Selling England by the Pound by Genesis
• In the Court of the Crimson King and Larks’ Tongues in Aspic by King Crimson

• Rush - 2112
• Caravan - Nine Feet Underground (Medley)
• Camel - Never Let Go (Especially This Live Verison)
• Gentle Giant - The Advent of Panurge
• Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick (The whole album is two parts of an epic, both parts around 20 minutes each.)

To dig deeper, check out these bands’ full albums too. Prog rock is insanely epic.

Bonus recommendation: a progressive METAL song, Dream Theater - Metropolis - Part I: The Miracle and the Sleeper
