That's perfectly fine. I only have four Neo Prog bands on my list, as Cristi correctly pointed out.

As it happens, I've been listening to Neo Prog - in the shape of Galahad - practically non-stop for the last three days. They're an amazing band!

I understand what neo-prog era means. It is not about the neo-prog genre. Why is this confusing?

I'm treating this as a Post-70's Pre-00's Prog Debut list. Paul uses Neo inaccurately for all prog that is not classic 70's era.

Paul, I must confess to being a little bemused... why do you start threads about genres you confess you know so little about? It would be a bit like me starting one on Krautrock...
 Why not just concentrate on the genres you love and know something about? If you are interested in Neo, just read the threads started by others who love the genre and listen to some of their recommendations? I'm not trying to be critical, I just don't understand your mode of operation...

To be honest, I wouldn't be able to name 12 favourite Neo Prog debuts, so I've included five Progressive Electronic artists in my list too.

Paul, you are probably best off, just including bands from the list at the bottom of our page... we will always have 'differences of opinion' about the inclusion or otherwise of certain bands, but it will give you a far more accurate picture of which bands are considered neo-prog...

I had to call it something and Neo Prog seemed to be the best choice. I couldn't call this thread "The Modern Era", as that's coming up next in Part 3 for the years 2000-2002. As you can see from my list, it doesn't necessarily have to be a list of Neo Prog debuts - just a list of 12 debut prog albums released between the years 1980 & 1999.

there is no neo-prog era, neo-prog is just a subgenre, a certain sound.
You say neo-prog and then have only 4 neo-prog albums in that list. I don't even know what to post here. |

Part 2 of 3. Coming up next:- Top 12 Prog Debuts from the Modern Era 2000-2022
My Top 12 in alphabetical order:- Abel Ganz - Gratuitous Flash (1984) Andy Pickford - Replicant (1993) Bekki Williams - Elysian Fields (1996) Code Indigo - For Whom the Bell (1996) Galahad - Nothing is Written (1991) Geoff Downes & New Dance Orchestra - The Light Program (1987) John Dyson - Evoluton (1989) Marillion - Script for a Jester's Tear (1983) Mostly Autumn - For All We Shared (1998) Pallas - The Sentinel (1984) Robert Fox - Asfafa: A Journey (1991) Underground Zero - Never Reach the Stars (1985) In light of some of the comments below, I should mention that you can choose ANY prog debuts between the years 1980 & 1999 - they don't necessarily have to be Neo Prog.
