Always a toss-up between "Duel With The Devil" and "Stranger In Your Soul". I went with Duel.

Although it is epic by Procol Harum, I had to vote for "In held..." - love it! ------------- carefulwiththataxe |

All of the Above
I like every movement in that epic,I think it just has a great sense of flow.For a song that clocks in at over 30 minutes it never gets boring. -------------  |

Man, I'm the first to choose Suite Charlotte Pike? I know it's shorter than the others, but that just means there's less overblown pomposity! Just kidding. I like mostly all of what they've done, but Suite Charlotte is just so new-great-beatles that i love it. I know some might say it's too much of a rip-off in that regard, but that aspect doesn't bother me. |

You should have added the possibibility "all of the above" below the list of epics. Because they're all great and it's really hard to choose. Oh well, voted "duel with the devil". ------------- BDTF - Belgian Dream Theater Fan |

I really like them all, so I am going to vote for "Suite Charlotte Pike." That little jam at the beginning is great. The rest is like an homage-fest. Fun stuff all around. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |

I really enjoy Transatlantic's brand of retro prog, and don't think they made a bad song. (out of the what, 9 songs they've released?) "Stranger in Your Soul" remains my favourite, reminds me of the heavier Spock's Beard tracks. |

Duel with the Devil.
This despite the fact that I'm not a fan of neo-prog in general, or any of the 'parent' bands in particular (aside from Fish era Marillion). ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |

| I say duel with the Devil, but to be fair, I will admit that there is some bias. That was the first thing I heard from them. |
