We arrive at the final poll of the series, this is going to be a busy one! We have nineteen entries, each one of which is a magnificent album in its own way so that should be a pretty hard choice...

Prog on and let's see what comes out of this. ![]() 1. 18 votes: Transatlantic - Bridge Across Forever (2001) 2. 12 votes: Spock's Beard - V (2000) 3-5. 11 votes: Transatlantic - SMPT:e (2000)/ 6-11. 10 votes: Yes - Magnification (2001)/Echolyn - Mei (2002)/ 12-17. 9 votes: Discipline - To Shatter All Accord (2011)/Echolyn - S/T (2012)/Transatlantic - Kaleidoscope (2014)/Wobbler - Dwellers of the Deep (2020)/ 18-24. 8 votes: Neal Morse - One

Southern Empire - Civilisation - mainly because no one else will vote for it.

Kotebel’s Omphalos is a fine album that gets my vote.

Minor nitpick: in English you normally use Arabic numerals to write the century, not Roman (21st century instead of XXI c.). I've yet to see a native speaker who casually writes it like so without intentional stylization.
PS: I'm sensitive to this phenomenon, because in my native language, Roman numerals are the norm. |

Tough one! I went old school with Spock's Beard. And thanks for doing these polls, that was fun.
Really I could have picked SB or five others on here, all very close for me. Wobbler, Discipline, Neal Morse, All Traps On Earth and La Maschera Di Cera. |

![]() So instead of writing "21st century" the Roman numerals alternative actually allowed me to have the full title of the poll series. Otherwise, I would not use Roman numerals for such a phrase. |

As I said on the thread for the previous poll, this is a very difficult one for me. I could have voted for any of the three Transatlantic or two Neal Morse albums, they are all amongst my favourite albums of all time.
Sola Scriptura is my final answer.
