Can we add this French prog band to the Archive? Not sure about the actual style, but I got their album and it sounds like a Symphonic Prog to me.

Thanks!

Now checking.

Reminds me of something like a French symphonic progressive rock gem Ange or Atoll. A good stuff.

Will alert the Team. Thanks.

Would be more comfortable if Neo Prog checks them first.

I find them clearly Neo, but checked other sites

Very good French http://www.gepr.net/genre2.html#SYMPHO" rel="nofollow - symphonic band close to http://www.gepr.net/ma.html#MARILLION" rel="nofollow - Marillion in style yet less commercial and earlier chronologically.

Was first voted 'move' by Team Neo (presumably to Symphonic) but has since been returned to their chart, with two 'yes' votes.

One team member still to vote, but I would imagine the outcome will be positive for eventual inclusion in Neo Prog.
