I'm not sure why I love Italian Prog. Deep down i think it may be my affair with PFM in the seventies and whilst that in itself is enough to justify the obsession, there are bands constantly emanating from Italy to this day that beat most of the UK's prog output.

 

Eveline with their alternative indie jazz electro prog openly admit that they take their sound from the Canterburybands in the 70's. The Watch, a great band in their own right take classic Genesis songs and perform them alongside their own. Moongarden are unashamedly prog but also incredibly brilliant. Now we have Dropshard currently recording a debut album but at the same time working hard and playing lots of live shows.

 

We found this taster called 'Images of Mind'. It's amateur footage but an incredibly good track building up to a stunning Mellotron finale.

If you are slightly interested in Prog this band are a must.
