^I appreciate that.
 
I should also have mentioned that the album has been remixed as well. We think it sounds much better.
 
I added the rest of "Sparta" and the song "To Trust Is Sometimes to Surrender" as well.
 
Now, despite several requests for The Definitive Tongues of Flame, an electronic/dance/techno remix of the album, we're moving on to new material. It's more of a fusion of post-rock/metal and tech-rock/metal and we're really excited for it. We're an instrumental band now, and we should be debuting this new material at some shows in the upcoming months, maybe getting a demo put together as well.

In the case that anyone is interested, we have made an instrumental version of our album, and I've posted Sparta movements II and V on our MySpace page for the time being.

It ultimately has nothing to do with your influences list, M., I hope that, in the end, you can understand my rejection was based on music. The influence note I've made was simply an appreciating one, but we're not making judgments over influences when it comes to finding the prog qualities in a band and its music.

I have been listening to Tongues of Flame quite a bit this week and really dig it.

It's almost prog metal if you ask me.

I listened to the songs and I think eclectic is the best fit for them. I think the music is undeniably progressive first of all, and thus does belong here. Being that I think it belongs here, it's then a matter of finding out where, so as to help anyone looking for them or similar artists to them.
Looking at the list of influences and listening to the music and arrangement of instruments, I think eclectic is a perfect fit. They have a wide variety of music and compose songs using many different instruments and blending several styles, the very definition of eclectic.
anyway, good music nonetheless, and i think in some form Centaur Rodeo surely belongs on this site.

I'm not trying to go against the members of the Eclectic Team, but they definitely are Art Rock material and there isn't a better place for them in the Art Rock categories than Eclectic.

Here's my thoughts one them:
- They aren't really crossover since there isn't really much "popular" music in them to be considered as crossover.
- They aren't really Post-Rock since they clearly don't have the qualities of a post-rock band like minimalism, crescendos, the simple instrumentation. Instead they have all the qualities I see in modern prog bands like epics, technicality, odd times, "multi-movement songs".

I wouldn't really recommend them to the Heavy Prog team since the heaviness isn't really the main attraction in their music and they use it sparingly like many modern prog bands. But if all else fails they may have a shot in there.

So I politely ask the Eclectic team to reconsider their decision and to listen to their music again without paying much attention to their influences or that improvisation track.

I left your name at the Post-Rock team as well now - given your latest comments about the way your music is developing.
