I've been listening to Royal Hunt these days. I find them very interesting, maybe a little similar to Dream Theater, but not that technical and perhaps with a more symphonic approach to their music.

There's a band called Dream Child. I think they only ever released two albums but if you like old school Dream Theater it has alot of those characteristics. I remember being there with a friend while he picked it up at a local Slacker's. It's been years since I listened to them..

Oh another band I might suggest would be conception, even though I really only like their first two albums.

Becoming The Archetype. And I am not just promoting them because I am friends with the members but because they are amazing.

I tried listening to Becoming the archetype before... Not my thing. Not because it's metalcore as I like certain metalcore albums

Check out their first and third albums. Their first one and third ones are the best. Devin Townsend produced (and sang) on Dichotomy.

I you like progressive death Augury is certainly a good choice, and Quo Vadis too. But they're more progressive and technical, kind of stuck in between the two genres.

I would say that Quo Vadis is a technical death metal band and not a progressive death metal band...there is a distinct different...
Symbyosis is a good example of progressive death metal...
@sasquatch: I 100% agree with that...when I listen to those two bands (and also BTBAM), it is like they are stuck between...well...lets say multiple genres...

About 3 Months ago, I sincerely thought that there was no Prog Act here in Brazil.
I obviously knew Angra, but it wasn't a pure Prog band. We also have in Brazil Freakeys, a excellent Instrumental Prog side-project of the guys from Angra and Hangar, but it's very, very underground, just a 4fun project.
That idea completely changed when I had found Mindflow, they deserve more attention of the Metal Community. Intelligent Lyrics, excellent technique and feeling, conceptual albums, good production... I recommend you to check their debut, at first. All albuns can be downloaded at their site.

The second Album is VERY Dream Theater-oriented, the Third one is a bit overproduced, even mainstream sounding, imo. As I told, I recommend their debut, very emotional, yet technical. All of them are Conceptual albums and you can play at their site a strategy game based on the story of the Third album, and a mini Guitar-hero as well.
In addition, they just have released the last track of '365', which is an album they released 1 song per month of the year. It sounds to me a mix of the other albums.

No one has mentioned Andromeda from Sweden yet. Strange, because it's a sure shot for every prog metal fan. I especially recommend their album "Chimera".

Chimera is indeed a very good album. I haven't listened to it in a while though.

One band that no one has mentioned yet is Beardfish. I am recently quite obsessed They're more prog rock than metal, but don't let that deter you. There are certainly heavy moments... as well as jazzy, soulful, and funky moments. And one hell of a Wurlitzer player!! I can't describe, just listen. TRUST ME
http://www.myspace.com/beardfishband
And just to reiterate some of the bands already mentioned (in case you still haven't listened - DO! They have my vote for sure.)
Vanden Plas
Anubis Gate
Myrath
Star One
Threshold
Freak Kitchen

Thank you, my dear So you recommend it?
Um, if you are a fan of 70's progressive rock (Gentle Giant, Genesis, Zappa, etc.), I recommend them.
