I have recently listened to PIG FARM ON THE MOON only album, Orbital, and I am very impressed, it sounds great.

It is funny to notice the different influences, for instance, that "I Lost My Wings" track sounds a bit like DREAM THEATER, some other tracks sound more like classic 70ies prog, although heavier, like "Awaken from Reality". I see http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive_rock_discography_BAND.asp?band_id=722 - here it is considered symphonic, but it sounds quite progressive metal sometimes. Really recommended!

Overrated? Lets see: a single praise (mine) in "Recomendations/Listening To", a single praise in "Prog Music Lounge" and only 20 people listened to it in Last.fm. I don't think this album is overrated at all, quite the contrary actually.

do you think the name Pig Farm on the Moon is drawn from somewhere else?

Somewhere like in PREMIATA FORNERIA MARCONI? I thought that might be a coincidence...
