I'm not familiar with the band, Which category, or categories, might it fit well, do you think? Searching some info on the band: It's listed at http://progressive.homestead.com/baskprog.html - http://progressive.homestead.com/baskprog.html

I'm guessing by the emoticons that you're involved in those sites? Am I right? I'm absolutely terrible at reading emoticons. They say they're good to makes posts less ambiguous, but sometimes the use of them confuses the hell out of me (reading behind the smilies).  Love Itoiz, and I had figured it would probably be best in Prog Folk after reading stuff (note: by putting the proposed category in the title it better alerts team members. I'll pass along the suggestions, though). ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before.

I haven't heard Errobi yet (maybe a sample at some time), though I see it has very positive reviews at this site. One for me to check out.  EDIT:
Now that I remember, there have been some interesting discussions about Baske Prog here in the past, and when you suggested it as Baske Prog, I should have automatically thought of Prog Folk (actually, I think I did, but...). It has been suggested that we have an Ethnic Prog category that better describes music now in Prog Folk such as Baske Prog etc. ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before.

Okay, I finally got around to listening to three albums (including their debut); I have to say that none of them sound even remotely prog to me, and only the first one even sounds a little bit folk. The band may boast members of Errobi and Enbor, but they don't sound a bit like either of those bands IMHO. Would like to hear opinions from others who may be more familiar with the band (including some recommendations on representative tracks or albums). ------------- "Peace is the only battle worth waging."
