New prog (also known as Nu prog, Post-prog or Post-progressive) is a term used to describe a number of recent alternative rock/experimental bands who incorporate elements from progressive rock.[citation needed]

Most notable bands described as new prog include:

In this sense, the term is relatively new. Other labels, including post-prog, have been suggested or used.[11][18] The term has also been used for some earlier bands, like Radiohead.[12] "New prog" has connections and overlaps with the post-rock movement, whilst frequently diverging with the indie scene. But it is distinct from the much earlier genre of neo-prog.[citation needed]
