Saros from San Francisco.
They just put out their second album "Acrid Plains". It might end up being my favorite release of 2009. Although, I await another release next month.

Saros has a female singer who mostly does growls, but does have some clean on this record. She also plays guitar very well. Two guitar players, bass, and drums. They are all very good musicians. What they have added on their second album, that they did not have on their first release The Five Pointed Tongue. Is, atmosphere! I'd describe them as somewhat progressive, a little doomy, and thrashy at times. They are not a 4 or 5 minute song type of band, either.

On their mspace "Reversion" is the only song off the new album. I really enjoy the first album, as well. F Sub Zero is my favorite song from that release. It's on their myspace page right now.

Yeah, Marillion are the band to bow down to.

Definitely Archive...
I discovered the band with Again, opening song of You Look All the Same To Me. And I was instantly seduced. With the other epic piece Finding It So Hard, both songs fill have of the length of the album and only for those two tracks, the album is worth buying.
I'm listening to their last effort now, Controlling Crowds, which seems very promising

Archive is the only other band that I label Trip Rock

Hmm, anyone here know of Frost* ? If not, I would highly recommend 'em to fans of progressive music.

It's sort of like something Yngwie Malmsteen would play if he played something darker and at times atmospheric, although it doesn't have his level of cheese.
