Wow, i really didn't expect TMV - Amputechture to be up there! Still, the album does have two of the best songs ever on it (Tetragrammaton and Day of the Baphomets), so they outway the mediocre efforts on the album.

Next year the poll should be even broader... Let's include forum members too!!!!Big%20smile
Its not that it's better than this year, its just that last year's list was more "ear friendly" than this year.

I disagree Ruben. Kayo Dot was not very friendly to my ears.

Very sneaky H.T. LOL

My top 2006 album would be Zaar as well, Logan.

My choice now would be Yugen's Labirinto d'Acqua (with ZePTO and Zaar close on the heels).  Maybe if I had October Equus things would be different.

I can't believe how much the rating have dropped for the following because of Sean Trane's review (that was the top-rated Avant Prog album of 2006 for a long time):
2006 2.70
Good,%20but%20non-essential
(7 ratings) 		The Public Execution of Mr. Personality/Quasi Day Room
HAMSTER THEATRE 		RIO/Avant-Prog
(Studio Album)

No problem, this search engine could do with some improvement.  And the "search in body" function has been disabled which makes it harder to find... contraband! Wink  Search in body, that presents a nasty image (unless you're really into, for instance, forensics).  Truth be told, it took me a few failed attempts before I got lucky (I've spent way too much time searching for half-remembered posts by half-remembered people at this site).

EDIT: Embarrassed Chamberry got in faster (too slow I'm having difficulty typing as I'm carrying a baby on one arm).  At least I got the link (using a 2005 search query).
 
Smashing, thank you!
I honestly tried to find it by making a search myself, but I never found the answer. I suppose I'll have to learn how to search in this forum!

In 2005 the winner was Porcupine Tree's - Deadwing
I recall Opeth, The Mars Volta, Wobbler and Van Der Graaf Generator being in the top 5 list as well.

I only know Tool´s album and TMV's, but find interesting the fact that PFM are still showing the new musicians, that they really are one of the best european group ever! I gotta have that album! My favourite singer Peter Hammil seems to be in great shape too for what I´ve heard!

If I could find any of the top 5 albums where I live, then I would let you know what I think.
