Early Queen! You’ll certainly get harmony, melody, songcraft, one of the best voices ever, early prog / speed metal, but you’ll also get wizards, ogres, fairies, and Zandra Rhodes outfits. 

 

...and John Deacon.

Opeth? 

Marillion (at a push)

King Crimson (Definitely)

 

 

To get to the heart of what Porcupine Tree are doing it is probably worth looking at XTC, Talk Talk and Blue Nile (all bands who seem to be a major influence on Steve Wilsons writing)

Hey PT fans-
 
I've been looking for PT analogues, i.e. accomplished playing / songcraft / harmonies without the wankiness of regular prog, i.e. indulgent time signature changes and aimless chord progressions, songs about wizards etc. 
 
I have been directed to both Pineapple Thief and Oceansize, and while I like them both, they are unfulfilling and reminiscint of my college shoegazing days.
 
Any suggestions for something that is crunchy but still melodic?
 
Forays into metal are OK (Akercocke comes to mind), but the genre is generally too po-faced to elicit anything other than giggles.
 
Thanks,
 
JF
