Oh jeez - and I just mentioned how Simon Steensland was my first RIO/AP album in another thread. Really hard not to vote for him but ultimately that one album is the only one that I really love. Poil, I love everything they do and eagerly await more. 

Hard not to vote for Shining or Yugen though, jeez, this is the toughest one yet. I'm probably an odd man out here, but the only one of these not in the running for me is Zappa...

Here it is, the proverbial group of death. These are all fantastic and wish they had been spread out a little bit. I'm going to go with Poil just because of the newness Factor and I'm fairly sure that Zappa is going to run away with it.

But damm...Yugen.

Oh, dear.  I seem to be voting mostly for bands from France in these groups.  In the next stage, I'll have some tough decisions to make.

appreciate Zappa.. but never really was a fan.. and always saw him more as modern classical than rio-avant

Yugen the best of the bunch for Rio-Avant
