I promise I will do the survey in late November. :)
I did see your list so far and it's pretty good. You cover a lot.
Just a couple I think you can add for now that I saw were missing. :)

IQ--Tales From The Lush Attic (remix/reissue 2013)
Clive Nolan--Alchemy
Fates Warning--A Darkness in A Different Light
Arena--The Rapture.
Ulver---Messe I.X--VI.X
WinterSun--Time I

And for the future....

I think the new Aryeon album: THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING will be great. :)

Catch you later. :)

Anyway, I bought music with it, which is always better than me using it on parties and booze I've acquired a fair few releases from 13, but most of em aren't featured on PA. Anyway these are: Deafheaven - Sunbather Steven Wilson - The Bird Djam Karet - The Trip Jaga Jazzist - Live with the Britten Sinfonia Henry Fool - Men Singing All of which are pretty good Looking very much forward to getting my hands on the new Guapo, Vespero, Ukandanz, Rhün, Sigur Ros, Setna, Mogwai and some others that I forget right now(probably for the best too!)  Not on PA: Jon Hopkins - Immunity Boards Of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest The Knife - Shaking The Habitual Primal Scream - More Light Autechre - Exai Unknown Mortal Orchestra - ll

A heavy carbon copy of Alcest The new Ulver though is downright amazing! Unique fresh take on the Berlin School of electronics entwined with some modern classical strings and creepy dark ambient whiffs. Fantastic release Still can't afford to buy the new Vespero and it bugs the hell out of me

Fright Pig is good but not sure its should have that high a rating. Sounds like a prog metal band playing symphonic style music. Good fun. WIll go on my list for the year probably top five.

Richard. What do you think of the Magenta: The 27 club album? Anyways I'd be very interested to hear your top 10 for this year seeing as how I feel 2013 has been the bees knees for me thus far. :)
