Hey. I'm looking for modern prog-rock/psychadelic groups in the vein of PT and Riverside. I'm mostly looking for newer stuff, so no 70's music like Pink Floyd etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
 
Sorry if this is a little old

You can check out steve wilson's side projects, No-Man and Blackfield. There's also Marillion, Spock's Beard, Transatlantic, The Flower Kings, Neal Morse (pretty much anything off the Magna Carta label).
 
Not all of these are psychadelic per se, but worth checking out if your like the whole prog/post rock thing:

Mogwai
Explosions in the sky
Sigur Ros
Do make say think
Mono
Red Sparowes
Tortoise
 
Sylvan are a great band to check out. Their albums Artificial Paradise and Posthumous Silence are great.

:worship: definitly!!!! but...they're not so similar to Riverside but you should hear them!
 
Check out Spock's Beard, particularly their latest "Octane". It's very much in that vein.

Another AWESOME band that waay overlooked is Arena. Check out "The Visitor".


Of course, their are the classic bands Anathema, Katatonia, the Gathering, In the Woods.
