Yes, they're avant-jazz. Not avant-prog. We don't have an avant-jazz section though. And they sound amazing. That's the problem, Alex, you're saying a band is better than a band you barely can remember. So listen to Led Bib some more and get back to me.

Yes and I've said this numerous times but the Eclectic team don't agree.

Well, I WAS just trolling you It's true though that I don't think I'll ever like Led Bib more than I like The xx. So why were Led Bib added to PA if they're not avant-prog?

Kayo Dot aren't overrated, but motW is roughly 40 times better (it would be a lot more if it weren't for Choirs)

The only thing I remotely like about The XX is their slight math/post-rock sound. They're really quite boring though.

Led Bib are just okay, but we've already done this.
If they rock hard enough to be here, and I think they do, then they're avant-prog as far as I'm concerned. If you start calling them avant-jazz we're going to have to start adding Cecil Taylor and all those people and that will be a massive headache.

if you own a sodastream i hate you

Avant-jazz on PA? Hopefully not, the prog purists would go mad, and I can barely stand them any more

Precisely. That's why they're here. They rock hard enough. Jean Louis though more than rock. They absolutely destroy most metal bands.
