I'm only judging from the song I heard on their site, but it sounds more like crossover than neo.
Maybe they need to see this, too.

I proposed them a while ago for prog folk but nothing happened. Maybe this will be more successful.

I found them 2 months earlier and add them in Progfreak  (above link). I decided to suggest them in PA but I doubt about them! Xover or Related?! IMO Prog Related is their fit sub genre but I (as a normal forum member) didn't allow to suggest Prog Related in this section.
Their music have many "Known and Listened!" elements. For example from they have many elements from FleetWood Mac ! I like Mantra Vega music so much but I'm not sure about "To Be Prog or Not to Be! Prog".
