What are you listening to right now, or most recently? Could be an album, an artist / band, or a single track that has grabbed your attention. Recommendations welcome!
I'll start with:
Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream
Having been listening to their new album, Closure / Continuation, which is also excellent, I've been refreshing myself with their back catalogue, and this is a superbly melodic album which passed me by at the time of its release. It one of their 'transitional' albums between their more ambient earlier material, and the heavier sounds of In Absentia. Highly recommended if you're into modern prog.

Nice, enjoying the Closure/Continuation album a lot as well. Going to see them in October/November in Amsterdam (can't remember the exact date). Still think I prefer most of Steven's solo work to the PT stuff though!
I'm currently getting into Van Der Graaf Generator, especially digging The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other and H To He Who Am The Only One, both from 1970. Some heavy prog!

I just listened and listened to Brian’s Floating in Heaven (normal and instrumental) to study how to make an extended remix and .... I did it. Listening to this song a few times it struck me positively 👍😁

A Broken Frame - Depeche Mode.
Just amazing. These guys are synth pop pioneers!

Iron Maiden - Brave New World
A fantastic return to form, and that drum sound!

Marillion - An Hour Before It's Dark.
An emotive, thought provoking CD, more accessible, I think, than their last record, FEAR. That said, this is one to sit and listen to without distractions.

The Who - The Rock
I used to play along that track on guitar back in college. Decided to play it again for old time's sakes, and I was surprised I still remembered how to play it!
