Kashmir?

I hadn't known them before seeing your post, so I checked out the band's myspace page ( http://www.myspace.com/kashmiryeah ) official website ( http://www.kashmir.dk/ ) wikipedia listing and reviews.  Listening to it, I wouldn't have thought of it as Prog, though kind of progressive, more moody alternative rock.  I have seen it mentioned as a band that makes progressive music, and read that it's been compared to Radiohead and Pink Floyd.  I do hear a Radiohead similarity (not that I know Radiohead that well) as well as bands like the Cure and various alt. rock bands, and one person describes it as Radiohead meets Jars of Clay.  David Bowie and Lou Reed have both done work for the band.  Must be a big band, not just in Denmark, that I'd never heard of.  Anyway, they are kind of related to some Progressive rock, just not sure how how distant or close the relation is (Radiohead related, I guess).  As you say, definitely alt rock.  In on review, I did read that "Their sound is a unique blend of progressive and pop rock..."  They've toured with Foofighters. 

Anyway, based on what I listened to, I don't really think so, but then of course I don't know the band well, and am not that up on alt. rock..  It doesn't sound right for Crossover to me, nor particularly related to Prog, but that's just my ignorant two cents simply intended to get the ball rolling more on this possibility.
