    Hi,
            Well, it would probably be best if you let us know more about
    what music you're already familiar with and what you like.

    - As a first pass at finding new prog-metal, try going to:
            http://www.moremetal.com and listen to their Quick Picks.

            Keep in mind that they seem to like pretty much everything that
            they review on that site, so listen carefully to the audio
            samples for what you like.

    - Are you familiar with bands like Queensryche, Rush, Fates Warning,
      etc? Do you like them?

    - Have you heard the "classic" progressive rock bands like Yes,
      Genesis, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, etc? Did you like them?

            Once we know more about what you have heard and what you
    like, we can make some better recommendations.

                                    Steve
