Yes, but its old stuff from an era he probably never listened too.

If one is looking for the dreamy melodic sound of floyd and genesis one should avoid ELP imo, they're too much a circus.

can't go wrong with Frank Zappa.

he'll make you laugh.

Hmmm, maybe they are to "epic" you are right...they have some nice dreamy passages. Moody Blues are just right though. they sound a lot like Floyd's early releases like "A Saucerfull of Secrets" and "Meddle". They had an amazing album called "In Search for the Lost Chord" if i remember. Quite "hippy" sounding at times though...lol...

cd's

Coldplay - Parachutes
Coldplay - A rush of blood to the head
Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlantism

some stuff from Explosions in the sky, it's an instrumental band. I like Your Hand In Mine.

what difference does it make if an artist is mainstream or not?

I thought that he asked for "intelligent" "non-poppy" music, not for "general good music". Oh and Marilyn Manson is not good music...


But its all a matter of taste in the end.
