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.

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).

I went with Duel with the Devil, but Suite Charlotte Pike was close.

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.

    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.

[QUOTE=E-Dub]Always a toss-up between "Duel With The Devil" and "Stranger In Your Soul". I went with Duel.

Agree, except I went with StrangerWink

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".

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.

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