Seconded for inclusion. One of my favourite albums of all time. Proto prog category ?

I hear influences in the likes of Nektar, and other hard rock/prog bands, but isanity and psychedlia in the likes of Floyd's Atom Heart Mother, or the Hatfield & the North oriented Canterbury sound.
Trendsetter win!

The search for nonexistent perfection.

Thanks Joćo.
I've not heard this band's rare elements and now very amazed at very locomotive psychedelia...an interesting stuff.
At least for me, feel a bit psych flavour is around them...how?

Since all topics where this band is mentioned (by members Slatibartfast and Jimboo) are now closed, thought I could make an official submission.
 
Plenty of reading material here:
 
 
 
Weird YouTube clip for the song Mr. Armageddon - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-T5zwGqjns
 
Not sure about the genre. Reminds me a lot of Spirit.
Bigger on the inside.
