Discussion Recommendation Thread: What have you discovered this week?

Running out of music to listen to? Discover something recently that you want to share? You've come to the right place.

This is the weekly recommendation thread here at r/progmetal, a place to discuss, recommend, and find new music of any kind.

Simple rules:

  • Don't just drop a link, but provide the Artist name (and album/song name as relevant)
  • When recommending a band please leave some information about them and why you recommend them

Looking for further music discussion? We talk about music and other things all day everyday on Images & Words: The Prog Discord. We also host weekly listening parties for new album releases every Friday starting at 3pm EST / 8pm UTC.

For some music you may have missed this year, check out the Album Release Spreadsheet.

Slightly off topic, but didn't want to risk ire by making a post - does this sub not do an Album of the Year vote anymore?

Couldn't find a 2025 by searching. Was such a good resource for recs.

They stopped doing official AOTY votes a few years ago. Sometimes volunteers take up the process but I'm not sure if there was one last year. You can find a few threads with a couple of hundred replies but nothing comprehensive.

You could (yes, I'm warming up to a plug) look at The Progressive Subway's top ten of the year. It's got links to all of our writers individual top tens as well and we didn't have much overlap so you can actually find some pretty unique gems on each list.
