EB - I like it for being more proggy and almost hard psych in places.
Eskaton - The only one I know (one off?) and great meld of psych, symphonic, and jazzy.
ELP - Most consistent and whole of side 2 is amazing!
Egg - Not big on Boilk, but the rest is second to none! 
Eno - I wish he wasn't so keen on the singing, but the playing on Green World is amazing! Ambient 3 diverges a bit from 'pure soundscapes' and I like it for that; his work with Cluster and M & R is much better! 
Enid - Yes, Aerie Faerie is good, but this one is better. Call them too lush/symphonic, but that is their charm for me! 
Eloy - Yes, I'm one who likes their 'own take on Floyd' era more than any other. 
ELO - Livin Thing is my fav song of theirs and the rest sure doesn't hurt the album! 
Embryo - Great German fusion band, and the African funk adds a unique touch to an already pulsating high end and groove-laden low.

Eskaton released 3 albums, Ardeur & Fiction are the other 2, 4 Visions is their masterpiece, the other two are worthy.

There also is So Good from 2017 which I hear is more like So Bad, and not of the so bad it's so good quality, but of the so bad it's ready bad variety. I have not heard it.   Agree that 4 Visions is the masterpiece, but I think Ardeur is great too, and I also really love Fiction.

Dagon off Ardeur is one of my farourite songs period:



As for Fiction, I really love this:

Le Dance De Feux



4 Visions, Ardeur and Fiction have all been essential albums in my collection. It's one of my very favourite bands and one of the very first I got into included in the Zeuhl "genre" -- before I got into Magma.

How about the band Eden from Quebec, Canada? They only had one album, and it was a super rare private pressing but holy heck, is it marvellous! The pirate "label" Tachika re-issued it on CD and apparently somehow got hold of the master tapes (stole them?) cause it doesn't sound like a needle drop!
