“The Purple Rocket” by Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears
From the 2008 album Flight of the Knife

I actually discovered this band about a year ago when iTunes was featuring Flight of the Knife for $5.99 and I decided to give it a chance.

Wow. This band is very theatrical, but also 100% prog. It’s kind of like a mixture of Queen, Gentle Giant, Yes and Ben Folds, on speed. Highly inventive, great musicianship. Just hold on to your seat or you’ll fall off.
