Their entire (or almost entire) album is here on Myspace: Myspace says unsigned, but they have an album available for sale (digital probably). Happy hunting |

Really enjoyed this one! Neo should accept them with open arms imho! Album is called "Lights From The Deep", released on Musea, August 2011: http://musearecords.com/boutique/anglais/index.php?ficheprod=1&artiste=IGNATIUS&refp=37710. Band members: Ricardo Boya: (bass, keyboards and vocals); Toni Castarlenas:
(guitars); and Marcelo Ortiz: (drums).Fine band ideed! (They are already on proggnosis and progressiveworld sites).
The same track recrded live at Boca Nord Civic Centre, Barcelona, Spain - Saturday December 11, 2010. And a much earlier live performance from 2008 with a different line up (drummer and keyboard player) and playing a track not on the current album. Album review in Spanish here: http://juanegara.blogspot.com/2011/09/ignatius-lights-from-deep-2011.html Apparently they have enough material for a second album. They also did a 3-track demo EP in 2009: Fragment - Demo (2009) 1. Lights From the Deep 2. Morning Moon 3. Resurrection Edited by yam yam - November 05 2011 at 20:43 |

Thanks for your suggestion Marty, and always detailed infos Yammy.
Anyway, a good band indeed, but too heavy and too of mainstream for Neo. Hour Of The Shipwreck meets Haken ... my impression. Fitter for Crossover, methinks. Edited by DamoXt7942 - November 05 2011 at 22:27 |

This Ignatius, it's a tricky one. I couldn't make a head or tales of it at first. Crossover is of course possibility and we will try.

Somebody suggested Ignatius to Symphonic, and already replied:
That's my opinion. Iván

Well neo certainly don't want them: http://progfreak.com/Ignatius-151001.html?path=pa/recent: Lets all cross our fingers, toes, and anything else that we may have to hand, that eclectic will find them a slot.

Honestly David, never thought Neo would accept them, too heavy for them.
The problem is that they have a lot of mainstream Hard Rock and Metal, maybe Xove would be more adequate, but that's not my call. But at the end I believe they are Eclectic or Crossover, not sure which of the two.

I'm sure one or the other will take them. Marty suggested them in the first place, so that's one 'yes' vote pretty well guaranteed if they end up in Crossover. So many prog bands these days mix their styles around quite a bit, even within the same album, and it's a real headache trying to find the best sub genre for them. I totally agree that they aren't a symphonic band though - so at least I'm making a little bit of progress!!

Indeed Iván, while at least one member of Neo (Keishiro) think of them as Crossover possible candidate, we may take Ignatius. The heaviness worried me as well (not in a bad way, but rather if they will be Neo enough), but some elements in their music hinted me there. Next stop Eclectic and Crossover then. |

We all agree on that they should be here, that's at least something.

Heard them on Progstreaming. Great band.
Reminds me of Djam Karet under Eclectic only less eclectic. More like heavy space rock.

Thanks for bumping EARLYPROG, now I can ask around what state are they in now being ping-ponged ? Update please. |

I checked out the samples and this band rather makes me think of It Bites; I think Crossover would be suitable.

And they're cleared. I think I'll ask the Original Poster to make a biography for them. OK, Marty said he'll do it. Edited by Marty McFly - January 18 2012 at 15:55 |
