This wasn't meant as a criticism, Agi...Anyone who can combine the wonderful vocal qualities of Thijs van Leer and Bjork into their singing has to be someone rather special!!  ...Just not all that easy to place regarding a sub genre, but Frank probably isn't far off the mark with his Math Rock suggestion for this band.

^ They'd definitely stand a chance Chris...It's prog for sure, so they almost certainly belong here somewhere, and if the math boys don't want them, it would probably be a case of Crossover or 'bust'!

Yeah - would probably worth a try there before sending them down to the 'last chance saloon'!

Well, Christoffer - they aren't in the new combined Post/Math chart on progfreak, and Crossover certainly haven't evaluated them, so it doesn't look as though this was ever taken any further. Math Rock suggestions were all handled within the team thread in the collab zone back at the time this band was suggested, but you'd find more activity in the average graveyard than there was most of the time in that thread!  Don't know if JR/F ever had a look at them, and I can't access that part of the forum to check for you these days, so we need the assistance of someone with four or five stars just to confirm this one way or the other. My gut feeling is that this one has hit a dead end though, and needs adding to the Post/Math chart...to take its place alongside the other 42 'new' suggestions they currently have to deal with.   I'd go and borrow a copy of 'In Search Of Lost Time' by Marcel Proust from your local library...and grab yourself a coffee...You may be in for a bit of a wait!
