Both of these bands have played at least three times at Rosfest (MS was actually booked based on my suggestion). Both are very good and in the modern symphonic vein.

Not familiar enough with either band to express a clear preference. Of what I've heard I tend to go with Moon Safari, but neither would be really high on my lists anyway.

Magic Pie for me. Even though, quite interestingly, Moon Safari's latest album (Himlabacken II) is sonically the closest to Magic Pie in their discography.

I'm in the both group too.  I've not listened to Magic Pie much in awhile, but I just finished a whirl through the Moon Safari discography fairly recently.  Nothing earth shattering from a break new group standpoint, but highly enjoyable music in a mostly positive and uplifting manner.

It's very, very close for me, but Moon Safari takes my vote.

I guess Moon Safari. Uh oh, it's Mickey Mantle and his vintage vacuum cleaner collection!

That's not an option. A band can use a million mellotrons on their records but that by itself won't make them prog.Tongue

I like them both a lot.
The first two Magic Pie albums are stellar, and Blomlijud is the happiest album ever made.
