No, I'm still here. Wink

Been a bit busier with school this week, have an Accounting midterm tomorrow, and I also needed to take a bit of a break from the computer... but now I'm back.

I'm glad to see the Ayreon/Le Orme poll was as close as it turned out to be! Shocked

I didn't say there was similarities, but they do share fans. Just like most people who's into Univers Zero also likes Henry Cow. Most people who like Residents also likes Frank Zappa.

A lot of us had a hard time choosing between Soft Machine and Magma too. Not because they have so much in common, but simply because we love both.

Recap:
Round 1
A1:  Mahavishnu Orchestra v. Marillion      (24-28)
A2:  Gong v. Area    (18-19)
A3:  Emerson, Lake and Palmer v. The Flower Kings      (22-14)
A4:  The Residents v. Tangerine Dream    (12-15)
A5:  Can v. Dream Theater    (42-37)
A6:  Echolyn v. Opeth    (11-18)
A7:  Van der Graaf Generator v. The Mars Volta    (54-18)
A8:  Samla Mammas Manna v. Radiohead      (27-26)
A9:  Rush v. Tool    (55-21)
A10: Meshuggah v. Kayo Dot     (15-21)
A11: Henry Cow v. Amon Duul II      (17-12)
A12: Soft Machine v. Magma      (23-25)
A13: Ayreon v. Le Orme      (26-29)

Gong lost against Area? and Mahavishnu against Marillion? I am beginning to lose my faith in prog archives Confused


Most people who loves Gong also love Area. I know I do, and I ended up voting Area. What's wrong with that?

I voted Hawkwind here, but that was almost as easy as voting for Can.

I honestly don't see any similarity between Gong and Area
Bald Jean,  in this kind of polls we start to repetaing ourselves again LOLLOLLOLLOL

That may be True , but the Ozrics grew out of the Free festival scene  forming i believe at Stonehenge festival
which of course Hawkwind being one the main Organizers (the Stage was Nick Turners) i also know the Ozrics themselves to be Big Hawkwind Fans,  they themselves would probably Vote HAWKWIND to
Much as i love the Ozrics this really is no contest , With the Hawk History etc etc and there Recorded output
is Miles ahead anything the Ozrics do, the Ozrics are basicaly instrumental jam band, where as Hawkwind 
have written some top Tunes over years, Both Robet Calvert and Dave Brock are realy fine song Writers,
So it HAWKWIND all the way, but still love the Ozrics hell got to love them after all they are from my Kneck woods  good ole Somerset

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

Hawkwind by a narrow margin...

Well, Area only won by a single vote, it's not like Gong has no fans around here, and Area is awesome.
