oh, yeah, everyone has different inclinations
but i'd check out their 70s output get the right impressions though
especially the stuff with bill bruford in it cuz DAT GUY! drums!

this one, i love the loooooong crescendo from a slow depression to an frantic anxious end, seeming resolution, and a final return to the original motif in a great chaos. one of my favorite tracks by them. always have thought of it as a movie soundtrack for a prison break, a desperate fugitive being chased by german shepherds and nazi guards.
oh yeah the escape fails...

this is from an earlier album, besides bruford in drums they had jamie muir, an experimental percussionist who left the band for a monastery
