http://www.myspace.com/friendlybears Great avant-gardish jazz-fusion band who have backed Kayo Dot on several occasions and done splits with Infidel?/Castro! and Ahleuchatistas. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Avantgardian |

A band I'm familiar with having come across it in myspace searches a few times (not sure why I didn't suggest it; an oversight no doubt). It's a band I really like. Good suggestion; good band! EDIT: have passed on the suggestion to the avant prog team. |

Indeed it is (must admit having known it already that I'm kicking myself for not having made such a good suggestion myself). I think it'll be great for avant prog. |

Their EP is available on emusic - I'll probably grab it sometime next week when my account refreshes. Band sounds very suitable for avant prog IMO. |

I started out thinking about them for jazz-rock, but after listening to their EP again I think their collective heart in definitely in avant-garde.

This is a no-brainer for me.
Björnar (BJ) voted yes on the chart.

GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!  Anyway, if the bio is a problem then I guess I try to help. I don't really know much about them, but if it gets them here!! ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Avantgardian |

I think there should be a statute of limitations on the approval of no-brainers.  Or should I say, clearing bands should not take so long (I'm more than guitly of not evaluating materials for Eclectic). It does have one positive vote from the team already, and no other votes, so that should be enough.If there are no objections, and you want to write the bio, I will add it for you giving you full credit for the addition. |

Now that I have a bit of power, revisiting some things...and these guys I really enjoyed, in fact I did grab their EP from emusic. So that said, Friendly Bears is approved. Avantgardehead, if you still want to contribute a bio, let me know. |

Seeing that most of my vetos to bands are ignored, I'll say NO! in the hope that they get in, because they deserve to be here.

Bump, So Avanthead, are you going to write the bio? If not, I can take care of it. ------------- http://hangingsounds.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow - Hanging Sounds http://www.progarchives.com/ProgRockShopping.asp" rel="nofollow - PA Index of prog music vendors |

No time to write the bio, plus I literally know nothing about them aside from the band name, the name of the album, and a few songs.
