nucleus cd rock
1.  nucleus cd rock by Anekdoten
The list author says:

Exceisior

Kraan Live

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Kindness of Strangers
4.  Kindness of Strangers by Spock's Beard
The list author says:
  "The album that suggested Beard had broken  free of their usual prog cliches - alas they hadn't. Considerably more original than Snow."

4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Through and Through
5.  Through and Through by Underground Railroad
The list author says:

1 Inch of the Fall
6.  1 Inch of the Fall by Finneus Gauge
The list author says:
  "A neo-prog interpretation of  a UK/Bruford hybrid? Scott McGill's Holdsworthian guitar (yes another one!),is stunning at times. If you can take Geddy Lee voice you can live with the  vocals here."
Used & New from: £8.85

Parallax
9.  Parallax by ???

£25.96

Buried Alive
10.  Buried Alive by Anglagard
The list author says:
  "Acknowledged by some as THE Scanadanavian prog band.  Similarities to Genesis are to be heard, on  long instrumental pieces."

Tanz Der Lemminge

Out of stock
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Citadel
16.  Citadel by Starcastle
The list author says:
  "Starcastle appeared when Yes descended into the topographic depths. At first folk thought this was Yes almost back to the standard of Close To The Edge. No just a band that does a very good imitation"

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Touch: Remastered
17.  Touch: Remastered by Touch
