This is really a tough one. All bands are top-notch, and it's not easy to choose one over the other. However, I cannot help but choose the mighty Miriodor, whom I have had the privilege of seeing twice on stage. They are so perfect in their understated elegance.

Kinda tough yes. I like them all moderately... Jean Louis, Present, Miriodor in particular all have material I love and some I'm rather lukewarm towards. I guess nothing quite matches the experience of first hearing Jean Jouis' debut - but Le Poison Qui Rend Fou has had the longest lasting qualities.

After much thinking, I'll go with Miriodor, but four bands should really advance from this group of death.

Looks like Present & Miriodor will take this, which is dandy with me.

now that is a bitchin' top two... but a no doubt vote for Mirodor..  which was THE band that started my conversion, my change in altitude towards this music.  Avanti is my #2 rated best prog album of the 21st century so far. What an album... what a group.
