You stumped me with that one. Do you mean the song, the movie sound track or these guys?
The Official Homepage of FRACTURE
With very few exceptions (notably "The League of Gentlemen" period, a monumental mixture of post-prog and post-punk), I dumped Fripp & Co. after 1976, until the 2000's. After 25 years, the KC incarnation with Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto was, again, an amazing "ConstruKction".
There is a lot of Gentle Giant stuff on Youtube, for those unfamiliar with the band. There's one with the drummer making funny faces that just has to be seen to be believed.
Several of the original members are now touring as "Three Friends"
Oh, and +1 for the person who mentioned Porcupine Tree. Been listening to them since "in absentia".
Nobody mentioned Rush or Jethro Tull, yet....two of my favorites.

Those, who are not familiar with the Strawbs (British "progressive folk-rock" from the '70s), can check them out at YouTube.
Mothvellum is a great prog rock band. They just broke up, so it looks like their first cd "Mothvellum", will be their last. I love their song "Against the Sun".
Their guitarist, Johannes Luley, is the greatest.

I'm a big prog fan. Dream Theater got me started but I've listened to countless other prog bands since then. A few favorites are Spock's Beard, Devin Townsend, 3, The Flower Kings, Symphony X, King's X, and many more.
I think I'll go listen to King's X's Human Behavior right now. LOUD, so that I can hear the harmonics for weeks.
Oooh, other King's X fans!
Superb group, been into them since OOTSP.
I saw them live last year for the third time, and they were excellent, as always.

Sendler I recognise quite few names on your list 🙂
More prog rock the Chinese band Cold fairyland http://www.coldfairyland.com/ is worth a look if you like pipa and cello with some odd drum beats, their best music is dark and heavy.
I am another person who hasn't voluntarily listened to the radio in over 25 years, it never played much of interest and suffering the disc jerk, news interruptions and inane advertisements made the signal to noise ratio way too high.
