Eskaton's one of the very best in Zeuhl, whereas I don't rank UTO so highly (mind you, I like all of the bands to some extent in the Zeuhl category).

I thought UTO was Italian. Tongue I'm probably cobfusing them with someone else. Totem is a very popular thing in the ZART world.
 
I'm picking them as well.

No way I could go with anyone but Eskaton here, probably my favorite bassist of the classic Zeuhl era.  Even beats out a lot of Paga/Top's stuff of the same time period. Shocked

Eskaton for me too, only recently I listened to UTO's two albums and although it was good it was quite tiring.

Eskaton - even if I always associate the name with escargot and marathon. A marathon for snails?

Tough one! I gave both 4 Visions and Rituale Alieno 5 stars. Didn't care for both groups' other albums near as much.

Gonna give it to Eskaton because they are the more important band of the two in the Zeuhl world.

Or the End of the World, which is what Eskaton actually means. Tongue
End times for running snails? LOL

^It seems PA members don't think Dün is Zeuhl enough but It is to my ears. If all Zeuhl has to sound like a Magma side project (see Weidorje) to qualify it wouldn't be a very interesting genre imo.
