Latest from Angel Ontalva, wherein he multi-tracks to form his own guitar ensemble covering a number of pieces from the October Equus repertoire:

"Crossover Prog" comes across as a catchall for things that might be proggy but also just straight ahead rock.

Crossover Prog definition
Crossover Prog contains progressive rock music that, though 100% progressive, may have a musical connection to popular music-- whether it be the lack of emphasis on extended compositions, or an influence from mainstream music in addition to classical, jazz and folk. Compositions, however, still exhibit a high degree of sophistication, sometimes outright complexity, and the musicianship and virtuosity is often on a par with established Prog acts. Much like their kin in the established prog sub-genres, these groups will incorporate many major parts of what defines prog rock: the fusing of rock with the structures and discipline of more traditional musics, the use of syntheisizers and new technologies, intelligent thematics, and the expansion of the form.
The defining characteristics of Crossover Prog are a pop music influence that is largely vacant in typical prog rock. Songs tend toward shorter, more concise presentations though still reach beyond the typical verse, bridge, chorus pattern. The harmonic, melodic, and rhythmic structures may be more easily digested in Crossover while not losing the musical integrity that a prog listener expects. Whereas Prog Related bands are generally commercial groups with certain prog elements or players that were involved in prog acts, Crossover Prog artists are predominantly progressive with elements of popular music.
The most representative examples for this genre include The MOODY BLUES, SUPERTRAMP, DREDG, CINEMA SHOW, RADIOHEAD.

PA made this category when they split the old Art Rock sub, and I always think of it as the non progressive (or barely progressive) type of Art Rock*. Things that are a bit more sophisticated than the average but don't really have the depth and commitment to the music as full blown prog-rock.
* I know labels can be tricky, as alot of people called Prog-Rock Art Rock back in the day, so forgive me for the distinction, if needed.

To me this seems like an album that would clear out a room in seconds! Not my thing.
^ Having now listened to it, it is pretty different from their other two. I like it but I wish it was a bit more diverse/developed in sound.
I'll still purchase at some point.

Any fans of bands such as Oceansize, Mew, VOLA and Agent Fresco may like to have a listen to the new album by The Black Light, called 'Unnatural Order'.

A little outside my normal listening zone, but I'm digging this. Very exotic sounding, but with a groove.
