I know of Marillion albums such as Script For A Jester's Tear and Misplaced Childhood but where else can I go if I love songs like Watcher Of The Skies, I Know What I Like In Your Wardrobe, and Supper's Ready?

You can't deny that these psych influenced hipster bands like Tame Impala and what not, are on the rise. Every festival you can find a great deal of bands related to this genre, almost turning into mainstream. I'm not saying that I don't like these bands, but I struggle to find people who are into the old school psychedelic progressive rock genre. Lately I'm descending more and more into obscure music, listening to everything from doom metal to jazz fusion and everything in between (progressive rock, stonerrock, krautrock, spacerock). But as a 19 year old guy, I literally don't know anyone from my age who listens to the same shit as I do. It's kind of frustrating that psychedelic influenced music seems to be popular, but at the same time, no-one listens to the music that lies at the foundation of this genre. I'm also pretty active in stonerrock communities, but even there people tend to listen more to metal-influenced music than the psychedelic side of the genre, and finding people who are not above 30 years old is hard... What are your thoughts on this? Looking in the wrong places? Comparing apples and oranges? Or maybe it's obvious that younger people don't know music from the 60's and 70's....?
What are some similar riffs in progressive rock? Here are some I found. PFM - Grazie davvero sound like Pink Floyd - Brain damage Yes - Roundabout sounds like ELP - From the beginning Soft Machine - Slightly all the time sounds like Caravan - A hunting we shall go

>In this way arose feudal Socialism: half lamentation, half lampoon; half an echo of the past, half menace of the future; at times, by its bitter, witty and incisive criticism, striking the bourgeoisie to the very heartβs core; but always ludicrous in its effect, through total incapacity to comprehend the march of modern history.
