First of all there was some Andy Ward playing in this band (that's why I have discovered them), even if no longer in the lineup.
 
The video below reminds to the "light shows", but this is where they are from. Not the best track to start with them as it's almost rock, but youtube doesn't contain everything.
 
This is a bit more pertinent:
 
 
but I suggest searching for older things.
My favourite Bevis Frond album is New River Head

Unfortunately I can't find stuff old enough. During the Andy Ward's period they were psychedelic with some blues. Reference: Arzachel

Sure I've taken them to Psych/Space subgenre Team ... they'll be evaluated so please let us take time. Smile

Sorry but Bevis Frond has been rejected by Psych/Space Team for the reason that we can find less progressive essence in them through their YouTube samples.

Unfortunately their samples on youtube as exactly how you say. 
 
Should you find it, they recorded an album with Twink (Bevis and Twink - Magic Eyes) or the incredibly badly recorded Tryptich that contains the 20 minutes epic "Tangerine Infringement Beak".
I can mention also "The Auntie Winnie Album with the Floydian (Barrett style) "City of the Sun". 
 
The problem is that I can't upload them and this stuff is not on youtube.

I think i have their first album, called Miasma but i think it would not help much.

 
if you want i can upload to evaluation purposes.

Alberto, Thanks for your kind offer.

It's not that I absolutely want them on PA, but I didn't make them a favour by providing the links to youtube.
I think Miasma is psychedelic enough, at least in the sound, even if a bit too rock-oriented.
"Wild Mind", "Confusion days", "The Newgate wind" are good samples, maybe.
 
Then if they'll be rejected, no problems for me.
