Are there any current bands that sound like 2002-2004 Coheed or Mars Volta?

I'm a huge fan of Coheed and Mars Volta's first two records each

Coheed - Second Stage Turbine Blade, In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3

Mars Volta - Deloused in the Comatorium and Frances the Mute



Are there any bands still putting out records that have that classic rock/progressive rock sound played with real (not sampled) sounding drums? Most rock records I hear nowadays, I can tell the drums have been replaced with samples and it ruins it for me.
 
TMV put out two other good albums after Frances FWIW.

Really wish they’d get back together. One of my favorite bands of all time
 
TMV put out like 3 or 5 great records after Frances

But for me Deloused and Frances had the style of theirs I liked the best, sounded more like a raw band playing together (even though both albums are also heavily produced) the later albums had more of the Pro Tools sound, and the songs dont impact me as much
 
I hate to be that guy, but the Coheed singer is one of the worst to me. Horrible sound.
