Two trippy, jazzy, and avant-rock prog rock songs, whom i like very much, becouse they both are insane in a concentrated and technical way. 

They both olay around on the same themes, repetition but also dissonance, and blues-jazz-avant garde elements, 

I would also love to cover them one time.

i find them both good, and creepy in a way, or haunting (dissonance) also lvoe the use of Moog on Alucard but also use of dissonance use of bass chords on Snails (Slians)

Dracula is Alucard backwards and Snails is almost slain when said backwards -- those fearless carapaced vampire killers slay Alucard.

Yes, Dracula due to allergies, and Snails because it makes them tastier to most  --but not to vampires, of course.  Dracula does not eat snails in a garlic sauce, that's for sure.

thats what Blade should do in the next installment of Blade franchise, make some french delicate snails to kill vampires :D

Wreck (by Gentle Giant) is similar in form to both these songs also)

I thought that Alucard had some relationship with Héloise, but I may be mistaken.
 
I vote tomorrow...

Haven't listened to much Gnidrolog (need to), but I'd have to agree that Snails is better.

Wow nice pairing! Voted both...

I look up, I'm almost blinded

by the warmth of what's inside me

and the taste that's in my soul,

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone...

Yep Snails for me too although I think they should have shortened it a bit.
BTW Kerry Minnear is running a company named Alucard, I don't think his business associates realized it's Dracula spelled backwards.

I'll be the first vote to Alucard.

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

I may like Snails a bit more, but it's very close. I vote for both.
