Symphony X is a brilliant, shining example of Progressive Metal; though they do mix it in with Power Metal, they maintain the aforementioned. I have several favorite songs from them, those being: Symphony X - End Of Innocence (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbrwowS_0ss#)
Symphony X - Domination (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7Zhi7QWN2o#)
Symphony x - Eve of seduction (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbTSLVx7dgE#)


I will post more as I figure out exactly which songs of which bands I like have more progressive elements. I could put up some Nightwish and Blind Guardian in the near future.

Let me introduce you all to Dream Theater :D ... Which by the way, I just saw like not long ago from when I post this thingy... Now, There's too many songs I'd like to put but I'm going to choose 3 to introduce you to their different progressive methods :3 .


Dream Theater - Under A Glass Moon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEKTNtmKZEw#ws)

Their early period with the album who changed it all... More light stuff, yet progressive and awesome :3


Dream Theater - Endless Sacrifice (Full + Lyrics) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STXFFYcuhuw#)

Now... Onto their most dark album which is mainly my favorite! Dark, angry, slow yet beautifu :D

Dream Theater - A Nightmare to Remember (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADX9DdURn8o#ws)

And last but not least... A Nightmare to remember... Creepy, agressive, awesome time signatures... 16 minutes of awesomeness o.o

Aw.  I was hoping to be the first person to namedrop Devin Townsend in here.  Guess I got my hopes up.


I enjoy this version as well.  Not quite as much as the original, but still quite a bit.


Devin Townsend - Hyperdrive [HQ] Addicted (2009) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBP8-ootc40#ws)


As well as some Strapping Young Lad.

Dude, props on posting one of my favorite Amorphis songs. It, Soothsayer and You I Need have got to be my favorites from them.


Got me some Nightwish; can't really place if it's Progressive or not. But I'm under the assumption it is. Nightwish - Dead Gardens (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk9q1IByqf4#)


Then some more Symphony X; this one from one of their earlier albums. V: The New Mythology Suite.


Symphony X - Evolution (The Grand Design) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wy0CH-cr-c#ws)
