Au Dela du Delire is a prog gem! In my top 10 all-time.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I only have the first Art Zoyd LP, and it's an excellent listen (their vinyls are very difficult to obtain) but again have 12 albums from Ange. Who can deny Francis' alien sounding Viscount Organ ??
ANGE (even if I had more AZ....)

Art Zoyd have the highest number of albums in my top 200 and are still going strong after all the years. No match.

Same here I think (haven't really got a top 200). Early Ange is sublime as well though.

I remain loyal to my symphonic roots here. However, I like Art Zoyd as well. Quite near the centre of a triangle with fanfare, chamber music and Zeuhl as vertices.

Art Zoyd for me. Art Zoyd has managed to hold my interest for many years, and I do have more studio albums by Art Zoyd than any other band.   They have a large discography, and have continued to make challenging, interesting and immersive music through the years. There is always something by Art Zoyd that I'm in the mood for on any given day. Right now it's the stylings of "Faust", tomorrow it may be "Génération Sans Futur".

Regarding "In case anyone doesn't know what either sounds like...", one track from one album of course doesn't give an overview of a band's sounds (especially for one with a lengthy career and different phases). Right now I would not be into the Art Zoyd track posted as it doesn't fit my taste at this moment, on different days, that has been more the kind of Art Zoyd that I have been in the mood for. I hope people don't jump to conclusions about a band based on one arbitrarily chosen track. A band would have to be pretty one-dimensional and/or short-lived to be able to be fairly judged based on one track (or even on one album in the case of more diverse bands).

^Curious to know what you think of the post-Zaboitzeff albums.

People can hear some of their albums on Spotify:

I'm hardly ever in the mood for any of the post-Zaboitzeff albums, but certainly have enjoyed the ones I've heard when I was in the appropriate state of mind. The first few after he left are my favourites of those, probably Metropolis especially, and I have enjoyed Eyecatcher. I could actually do with some U.B.I.Q.U.E now, which is pretty different from the ones that came after it and retreads music, but most of them tend to test my patience (minimalism, ambience....). The first Experiences one I always like in part, but can almost be too academic, I find.

They're somehow more artsy and intellectual... even more... they're colder and less accessible (even less Wink), but I find them very rewarding still. They managed to find another direction where pretty much nobody had gone before, and where there's something to be found. I respect them big time for this. Compare this with what other bands do when they come of age...
