Finnish band with, from what I can tell, have their debut album out. Vintage prog, arguably with enough of a vintage keyboards presence to interest the symphonic crew.

Yeah this is certainly vintage sounding prog - and a very fine album too, but it has a variety of textures...some of which are fairly laid back and pastoral, and others remind me in many ways of bands like Uriah Heep (especially the prominent use of the Hammond Organ in several passages). Is there enough of a symphonic vibe to interest that team?...I'm not so sure myself - I actually find this a very difficult album to assign to any one sub genre due to the wide variation of the material it contains. There are four quite lengthy pieces - all extending to over seven minutes - and a couple of short ones. I've got a feeling that this suggestion might take quite a while to fully resolve. There is a quite detailed review of the album at http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2015/10/27/malady-self-titled-pieniin-saariin-premiere/" rel="nofollow - http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2015/10/27/malady-self-titled-pieniin-saariin-premiere/ , and the band's website is at http://maladyband.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow - https://maladyband.wordpress.com/ (it's pretty basic though to be honest). Released via Svart Records on black vinyl (500 copies made): http://svartrecords.com/shoppe/svart/3137-malady-lp.html" rel="nofollow - http://svartrecords.com/shoppe/svart/3137-malady-lp.html .
