Zeuhl???
"
Defining zeuhl music can be tricky. “It’s sort of like what the Supreme Court said about pornography,” ventures Steve Feigenbaum, “I know it when I hear it."" (source will follow)
Another way of looking at it is: "
It's prog, but not as we know it".
The first zeuhl band is without doubt the French band Magma. After all they invented the word. In their artificial language "Kobaiian", it means "celestial".
Here's "Hortz Fur Dëhn Štekëhn Ẁešt" from their third album: "
Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh"
The whole album, can be found here (live performance in 2000):

But after Magma, several bands have adopted the style. Here's an article from bandcamp:
There is No Prog, Only Zeuhl: A Guide to One of Rock’s Most Imaginative Subgenres (
https://daily.bandcamp.com/lists/zeuhl-list). Yes, I got the first paragraph from there.
a pibbur who regrettably AFAHK has only 15 albums with zeuhl music (13 by Magma)
PS. According to this list: (
https://www.last.fm/tag/zeuhl/artists?page=1) more bands in my collection are considered zeuhl artists, so maybe I have more zeuhl albums. OTOH, the site considers Kim Kardashian and Hulk Hogan zeuhl, so I am a bit in doubt. DS.
PS2. I have no music by said Kardashian or Hogan. DS.
