^ Well, it's always good to return to it. The uploader also agrees about their eclectic sound: "I recommend to any fan of Gong, Soft Machine, Nucleus or Magma, but anyone will not be disappointed if is not allergic to woman's vocal and a bit of zeuhlish prog style.".
It reminds me a bit of Cos, now that I think about it.

Oh man, the album that keeps coming back to haunt us, but GOOD haunting!
Seriously needs a home on the Archives somewhere.

Bump! If the problem was lack of samples, someone recently posted the full album on Youtube:

By the way, did the Eclectic team ever look into them?

Would evaluating it again with proper samples (the album) be a good way to go?
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Michael's right. They were rejected for fusion back in april 2012.

Infocat, pretty sure the band were already proposed quite a while back for jazz/rock/fusion and were voted `No', which I cannot for the life of me understand why.
I think at the time the album was limited to a few stray clips on Youtube, so access to the whole album was not available. It's a damn shame, because it's a real knockout, I'm a very proud owner of the recent CD reissue.

That's great news! I was just wondering about that, actually.
Meanwhile, someone posted the album on Youtube. Here's the first track, "Giant Babies".
