I love Plat du Jour as well -- one of my favourite bands that we accepted for the Eclectic category while I was still an active member of that team.  A jazz band similar sounding to Magma that was recommended to me that has been one of my favourites over the last few years is Gonda Sextet (I know I've mentioned it before -- got vocals that remind me of Magma and Area too).

Hah no problem my friendSmile 
I do think most Magma fans would find lots to love on that Plat du Jour album, I certainly did and do.

Maybe there should be poll with bands that sound like Magma? These guys would fit right in then http://www.myspace.com/platuujourprog/music/songs

Yeah, the other two might have got some anti Vander's Magma votes, but of course  the other two aren't well-known, not many people check vids out, and probably not that many would check the poll who aren't into Vander's Magma.  All three bands are good, but in regards to the first two, I do find that Krautrockers commonly appreciate Zeuhl and Zeuhlists commonly appreciate Krautrock.  For that matter, most people I know who like Zeuhl and Krautrock are also into Prog Folk (but especially of the acid folk variety). Interesting, though, that the Argentinian Magma has zero votes, since that would appeal more to those into softer symphonic Prog as well as rather more typical Folk-Rock as my ears hear it.

By the way, about six  years ago when I was looking up Magma on youtube I came across this Polish Magma.  The title of the song I found was Ainu and I thought that sounded like a very Kobaian title, so was surprised when I heard the music and was not the Magma I was expecting.



That said, I guess generically it's not absolutely world's apart (interstellar pun intended) from some of the Vander Magma.

I figured the other two would get more votes as not everyone likes the French band.

I like the German Magma a lot, but the Kobaian Magma iss de hundin. 

For me, not many bands would make for good sport when pitted against the mighty Magma (the mighty Magma being the one with Christian Vander if it needs stating).

I've heard bits of the "other" two, but the French Magma takes this one easily
