I recently bought the most recent release by a group called Marillion (I believe their third album). Not only is the instrumental complex, subtle, and simply wonderful, but the vocals are so much like Peter Gabriel himself singing that I begin to wonder if the lead vocalist, FISH, is indeed a pseudonym for Peter. The album, called Misplaced Child, is a story book album structured like many an old Yes album (i.e. many tracks are divided in to sub-parts). A friend of mine who recommended I get this album has now listened to it roughly thirty times and he still finds it as fantastic if not better than the first time he listened to it. As for myself, I've listened to it only three times, but even on the first listening I was dumbfounded by their improvement over their previous album. I recommend anyone who liked old Genesis and perhaps those who liked Yes to get it or at least to perk up if you hear their name mentioned on the radio and judge for yourself.
