Renaissance. And I won't even add a hint of cynicism. ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

I actually like the original line-up of Renaissance but Cynic are slightly more appealing to me than even it. ------------- Magma America Great Make Again |

| While I like the style of extreme metal-jazz blend that Cynic played, I don't like Cynic's own albums (prefer Atheist). Renaissance it is. |

I like what I am hearing from Cynic and is likely one thing I'll take from this silliness.. exploring them further. but Renaissance it is. Not exactly my preferred style of music, Cynic may well be more so, but some of what Renaissance did truly is some beautiful and amazing stuff. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

Cynic are pretty good, but I vastly prefer Athiest. As one of the few torch-bearing tech/extreme types that participate on this forum, I actually prefer Renaissance, mainly for Prologue & Ashes Are Burning. I'm just going to abstain from voting as it won't be needed I'm sure.

Cynic. Renaissance is too pretty for my tastes (may just be Annie's vocals). ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

Cynic as they could do with the vote but I really like both bands, which makes a nice change to pitching one band I like against one I dont or worse, two bands I hate (SR vs TD  )------------- Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

Renaissance.------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |
