This is probably as close to my preferred genre as anyone's ever posted to 
LAU, and it's very nicely done.  Once again it makes me rethink whether 
it's practical to try to record prog rock using only free software, since 
it's so dependent upon a certain palette of sounds that's amply covered 
under Windows but not as easy to come by under Linux.  I have some crunchy 
Mellotron samples I like, but certainly nothing like M-tron.  But what 
struck me most after the Mellotrons was how good the organ sounded, so 
maybe there's hope.

I know you think it sounds unpolished, but I actually find glossy, 
overproduced stuff to be kind of wearing, especially when it has a big, 
symphonic arrangement.  Hope to hear the rest of it someday.

And while I haven't listened to that much Scandinavian prog, I like 
Anglagard better than Flower Kings too.
