My number three on this list. I have always had a really soft spot for this album. Swedish Zeuhl! Two of them play Fender Rhodes and I just really like this album from start to finish.
Man Kohntarkosz, Z=7L and Barndomens Stigar all in one poll, not fair really. Heck the other three sure are far from being chopped liver.

Are you sure? Well I've got one Magma album in each of these polls but the others won't be the albums you think should be here.

You really should check it out. Not as difficult or weird as a lot of Zeuhl, okay it is weird.

Magma first, then Bringolf. I prefer Zao II and III.

Well Osiris is coming up but you might like something else on the poll better. 
Oh I should mention Setna who has a couple of votes. Really classy stuff, even the pictures of the band all dressed up in the liner notes. Surprisingly chilled too, an impressive recording to say the least.

Oh man anything Zeuhl even the slightest is always so great... out of these I think I have the softest spot fro Kultivator. I loved them even before Magma had really clicked with me.

I did spin anything that was tagged Zeuhl by RYM to come up with a list but in the end I didn't include some real favourites simply because to my ears they weren't Zeuhl. I also included some of those though that I heard hints of it even though I think most wouldn't consider them Zeuhl. But yeah I think Zeuhl has my highest average ratings when it comes to reviews but I'll check that now.
No it's second to Canterbury but obviously I love this style of music.

Not familiar with the other choices and love Magma(and they seem to be the popular choice here) so yeah. If it was MDK would be a slam dunk choice every time.

I checked Rym Zeuhl Genres page - and I'd say there's a few doubtable entires there that I simply consider avant prog or jazz rock - I guess these contain a few of Jannik Top-like basslines I'd forgotten about. But I was surprised Rahmann (a personal favorite) wasn't listed...

Köhntärkösz is the easy winner here.

I notice a conspicuous lack of Japanese Zeuhl in your polls.

The closest were Amygdaly and Bondage Fruit's II

That's dissapointing. As much as i love Magma, BF II and Viva Koenji! are my favorite from the genre. I can understand not having a band like Happy Family here. I love their albums, but the Zeuhl link is loose.
