Yup. All the names, including the answer to the final anagram, are all listed on PA.

Some people find joy in knowledge. Some people find joy in ignorance. Some people just enjoy music.

How did I miss that. LOL  That part does sound kind of Metamorfosi-esque (who, in turn, sound an awful lot like Banco). Wink

There IS some Italian prog in there but no one seems to be homing in on the right band yet...





Damn, I own that album! LOL

Attahk is indeed fantastic! One of my favourite Magma albums, for sure.

Boy, I really should listen to Attahk more!  Would have never picked that up from a 2 second clip.


What can I say?

I'm a Magma fanboy. Big smile

I listened again, and heard some Neu!, I believe Hallogallo.  And that is all I know, I believe, although a few of them sound awful familiar.


No on the Banco front, I'm afraid.

You're spot-on with Neu!, mind you.

Thus:

I think I know the clip that put you in mind of GG. It's one of the seakier additions 'cause it's a well-known band but from one of their more atypical albums.

Anyway:

We're making progress, people!

I listened to it a while ago, so not only is my recently (and unfortunately) neglected progressive-dog against me, but also my whimsically forgetful mind-cat.

I definitely heard some Hoyry-Kone (maybe it was Alamaailman Vasarat, but I didn't think so), Egg (as mentioned), Metamorfosi (or Banco, perhaps), and I think something that reminded me of Gentle Giant, but I couldn't pinpoint the song.

I sure don't mind.  The clip I recognized was "Contrasong" by Egg.


Clap

I'll help things along by pointing out that that was the penultimate clip, so so far our anagram looks like this:

*********E*


HTH!

(I should also point out that HTH isn't part of the anagram).
