New prog (sometimes called "Nu prog" or "post-prog") is a term used to describe a number of recent alternative rock bands who incorporate elements from progressive rock.
Bands described as "New prog" include:
* Coheed and Cambria
* 3
* Doves
* Mew
* Muse
* Mystery Jets
* Oceansize
* Pure Reason Revolution
The term in this sense is relatively new and other labels such as Post-prog have been suggested or used. The term has also been used for some earlier bands, like Radiohead. "New prog" has connections and overlap with the post-rock movement, but is distinct from the much earlier genre of neo-prog.
