Good stuff!  I like them. Notified the Prog Folk and Post Rock teams.

You mustn't notify two teams at a time, Bartek   I'll look into this.

Anyway, good band but hard to classify I feel ... fit for Folk?  ------------- http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow">

I'm not so sure that just because there is an accordion it fits into folk... I was thinking more, perhaps xover |

| by the way, if you didn't do so, check out them demoing their "new gear" at the end of the 2nd video |

I wasn't so sure too. And they sounded post-rock-ish to me. Didn't think about xover... ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

And why is that? I wasn't sure where to put them so I notified two teams which might want to take them IMO. So, let 'em fight for 'em. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."

Teams are not supposed to evaluate the same artist in the same time. You tryin' to steal my job, Bartek?  |

Yep, that's what I want to do. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

Nice try Colin Yeah, they don't fit in with progressive rock... Sounds like a chanson-based indie band. Reminds me of Yann Tiersen and Jay Jay Johanson (who's also Swedish, I don't think it's a coincidence). Nice stuff!

Is that what the evaluating teams said, or just what you say? |

They're not evaluating for the moment. Only a day has passed, most normal people prefer to hang out and do stuff on weekends My own evaluation (as the sole member of the New Bands team ) is that the band isn't progressive rock, my envolvement with this suggestion being therefore done now. |

This is not a band appreciation thread but, wow, these guys rock! (3:25 minute mark of the first video of the first forum post). I´m pretty jealous of the nice home studio they got there. But anyways, I like the vibe that comes from them and this guy´s 70´s style haircut.

The prog-folk team listened to the band, liked it, and voted "move" to the post-home-depot genre  (no kiddin')
