I'd really struggle thinking of 10, so here's 5:

1. Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun
2. Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt. 2
3. Opeth - Still Life
4. Mr Bungle - California
5. Camel - Rajaz

And a shout out to Gorky's Zygotic Mynci's Spanish Dance Troupe, even though it's not quite prog but I discovered recently and loved.

One of the cool things about 1999 was the release of some really good seventies music for the first time.
These four would be at the top of my list if they counted.

Eiliff- Close Encounters With Their Third One
Gila- Night Works
Placebo/Marc Moulin- Sessions 71-74

In no particular order:
Kada- Kada
Porcupine Tree- Stupid Dream
Sinkadus- Cirkus
Vesania- Vesania
Anathema- Judgment
Present- No 6
In The Woods...- Strange In Stereo
Godspeed You! Black Emperor- Slow Riot For Zero Kanada
Anekdoten- From Within
Nebelnest- Nebelnest

"The wind is slowly tearing her apart"

"Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

That's a lot tougher than 1998. It really hurts to leave out Primus, Mr. Bungle, Opeth, and Anekdoten, who, based on my mood, could be in the top 10 on another day. The Godspeed You Black Emperor 1999 EP is pretty great, and Ui have a nice one, too (I realise that Ui are now on PA but their albums are not listed).

Tarentel - From Bone to Satellite
Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream
Kong - FreakControl
Salaryman - Karoshi
Asmus Tietchens & Vidna Obmana - Motives for Recycling
Sigur Ros - Ágćtis Byrjun
Cardiacs - Guns
David Sylvian - Dead Bees on a Cake
Labradford - E Luxo So
Camel - Rajaz
