I heard two of their albums before (Lightning and Dying Surfer), and saw them last year. It's a good Psych Rock band but I think it lacks the progressive element.

It lacks the progressive element? I don't agree.

My first example ("Charles William") is the fantastic progressive rock number, with its great bass intro to the brilliant classic keys solo that blasts through when it comes around.

"Lightning at the Door" album satisfies in its progressive sensibility and its atmosphere even as it sounds humble, raw and working directly in opposition to self-indulgent impulses.

Let's listen:

we are a team whose members have a different background, taste, and understanding, what prog music really is.
But I'm quite sure, this band, however prolific by all means, will not take the hurdle.
At a first glance this sounds close to heavy psych, desert resp. stoner rock, more akin to bands like Queens Of The Stone Age, Foo Fighters and similar.

Nevertheless I will take my time to explore their stuff ...
