I once had an album of theirs, did not like it, do not think they are linked to prog, honestly. ------------- Follow me on twitter @memowakeman |

| Too me An Albatross are in the same vein as The Locust and Psyopus with a bit electronic leaning...... |

This is some... interesting stuff. Mostly just avant mathcore IMO, I'll alert the PMT and see what they say, but I agree with Alan that they're not all that prog but just rather crazy. ------------- http://ow.ly/8ymqg" rel="nofollow">

Psyopus and The Locust are already here into math and extreme tech. Time to give another try. |

If a re-evaluation is to be carried out, there needs to be released new material by the band in order for it to fly.....and that didn't happen. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

What flavor is it?  ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

| They definitely have a shot in Tech/Extreme. I thought their prog credentials had been established from the start--I hear lots of RPI in their song structures and sound, especially the keyboards. |

I don't think the one who denied An Albatross already checked the whole album called Blessphemy - hammond organ based extreme music, and very progressive, including a three pieces suite (of course made of 2-3 minutes each part, but it's 'powerviolence' music) and lot of prog rock influences and references, like the opening theme, In the Court of the Bear King. |
