Yes indeed - this music belongs on the site for sure...But we don't have an Art Rock or Classic Prog Rock sub genre (or evaluation team), so we're gonna have to come up with some other category to base a possible evaluation on (the occurrence of an evaluation assumes that someone from the sub genre team we eventually decide upon passes through here to pick your suggestion up, of course...!)

So what do we have to choose from? Well, there's no really 'heavy' material on the album, so I reckon that rules out both Heavy Prog and Prog Metal (there's certainly no metal here), and the presence of some pretty lush and complex keyboards throughout the five lengthy pieces that form the bulk of the album (the kind of ambient sounding closing track 'Approach' is the only short track on it, and seems somewhat redundant to these ears following the five majestic pieces that precede it) tend to make me think that the Symphonic Prog boys should have a listen to it in the first instance. Other than that, we really only have the Neo Prog and Crossover Prog sub genres on the site where this music might fit (it's not Eclectic Prog in my book, and none of the other subs that have been created here over the years would be anywhere close).

I'd be tempted to edit your topic title to include the phrase 'Symphonic/Neo Prog' rather than 'Art/Classic Prog Rock', and seeing these words should draw the members of those two sub genre teams over to the thread to hopefully add their comments, and maybe take things forward. Embarrassed

This is a really good album by the way - and one of which you should be extremely proud. Wonderful musicianship, superb vocals, and great production. This is gonna win some lavish praise indeed once it gets some airplay, and becomes more widely integrated into 'the loop' of the prog community. Thumbs Up

Edit: The YouTube playlist doesn't work at all over here in the UK (all six videos unavailable), and this seems to be a recurrent thing with all these 'Various Artists' topics that are stated to be 'Provided to YouTube by CDBaby' and 'Auto-generated by YouTube'. Ermm

Yes David, I just googled the subject having been denied access to these type of auto-generated video channels countless times on YouTube this year, and apparently since 12/12/2015 YouTube blocked access to these types of videos to ALL countries but the USA. I read that it has to do with licensing rights and local copyright laws. The CD Baby/Orchard Enterprises/etc. agreements that allow YouTube to auto-generate videos often don't extend to countries outside the US.

Too bad... :(

Uwe (special collaborator Rivertree) added Evership to progfreak.com about three weeks ago: http://progfreak.com/Evership-166874.html

This is the site that the Neo Prog team usually (but these days not always, it seems) use to track their evaluations. So far the band has not been added to the team's 'new' chart on that site, so I've no idea if an evaluation is in progress yet. 

Of course, Uwe may have dropped a link to this thread in the Neo Prog team thread in the collab zone of this forum when he added the band to progfreak, and they may be carrying out an evaluation outside of progfreak solely within that thread... but until someone with access to the collab zone has a look and reports back here, were all in the dark as to what's actually going on. Ermm

Thanks for the responses Olav and Keishiro both. Thumbs Up Approve

I am personally undecided whether this would be best filed in Symphonic Prog or Neo Prog on this site...but it certainly belongs here! The original topic title was edited a fortnight or so ago to include the words 'Neo' and 'Symphonic', but the Symphonic team haven't took the bait thus far - and Iván usually responds quite promptly whenever he sees a new suggestion with the word 'Symphonic' in it, so he probably hasn't seen it yet (quite possible, since editing the topic doesn't move it back to the top of the front page of this forum, and the editing most likely happened after the thread had disappeared from prominence on page one).

@DamoXt7942 - I'd be tempted to give Iván a day or two of extra time to spot the topic now that it's back in full view with the word 'Symphonic' visible in the title, and see what he thinks. If he doesn't respond between now and Sunday evening, or if he confirms that Neo is indeed the preferable sub for an evaluation to occur, then go for it my friend!!

There is an extensive bio available at: http://www.evership.com/bio.html (check with Michelle if it's ok to use some or all of it if approved for addition - you might need to contact her anyway for a band pic of some sort, since I didn't see anything suitable on either the band's official site or their facebook). Embarrassed

Edit: The track 'Ultima Thule' was played tonight on Emma Chrysoprasia Roebuck's 'Northern Star' show on Progzilla radio. It will be repeated on Saturday at 3.00pm GMT + 1  and again on Sunday at midnight GMT + 1...or in a few days time you can listen to it as a podcast via the 'Northern Star' link given above, or at http://www.progzilla.com/podcasts/ (look for the entry: Podcast 74: Northern Star 4th August 2016).

The full playlist can be seen here: https://www.facebook.com/NorthernstarChrysoprasia/posts/1222971114401925 - a little under 3 hours of some very fine music indeed! Big smile

Noting these are on Spotify is good news.  I will give these a good listen over the weekend.

Just to clarify, of the 4 members of the Neo Team only 2 (Keishiro and I) are able to access Progfreak.

There must surely be a solution to whatever the problem is Roj. From what I can see, neither Hercules or Cristi_D have ever logged in to progfreak since they joined the site 6/7 months ago. That only needs for them to enter their username and password, and is no more difficult to do on progfreak than on any other Internet site in my experience.

As far as being able to carry out team duties is concerned, then as long as either you or Keishiro (whoever is the current leader) has correctly added them to the team (which seems to have happened just fine, since both of them show up on there as current team members) then as long as they can log in to the site, they should see the relevant links to vote, add artists etc by clicking on the Neo link that should be present somewhere (at the top right of their 'home' page if I remember correctly from my Crossover team days).

I initially couldn't do this when I joined the Crossover team because Chris had added me with a capital 'Y' for the first 'yam', and there was no 'Crossover' link visible to me on my homepage until he had corrected the spelling.

Whatever the issue, Mike will sort it for you if you, Keishiro (or Hercules or Cristi_D themselves) contact him via the 'Write a message to Mike' button on the right hand side of the About/Contact page. He may take a few days to respond, but he has always helped me out in the past whenever I have had a problem on the site.  Hercules and Cristi_D will still be able to contact Mike themselves even if they can't actually log in to progfreak at all - they can give him an email address or even a phone number for him to reply to using this messaging facility.


It's worth a try...  Embarrassed

Thanks Iván. Thumbs Up

Its all yours then Neo team... Big smile

Already added to Neo chart on progfreak by Keishiro on 4th August, and you can follow the evaluation here: http://progfreak.com/Evership-166874.html?path=pa/recent...assuming that the progfreak problems with Cristi_D and Hercules can be resolved, that is. Ermm
