I have to go with the flow on this one, just because 'Hybris' is an all-time favorite of mine! Is there really any competition here anymore? LOL

Dream Theater - I have fond memories of scenes from their Metropolis DVD.

It's a bit of a stop start album, even the live version on the Made Again album. It doesn't flow like a Pink Floyd album. However it has a brilliant concept with great lyrics and the highs are as good as any on any other Marillion album.

Lardspeed Dew Black Janitor for me. I remember back when every new release of theirs was hyped and even youngins fell over themselves to get to the pork. Them and The Lars Volvo truly catered experimental music to the masses at the time - ultimately making PA pretty...err..interesting to frequent.
‘That is not prog! It does not sound like Genesis or King Crimson!’
‘We know and that is exactly why we like it!’
To those of us who loved both sides of the fence though..it was hilariously fun to watch from afar.

Kinda reminds me of PA today

Anglagard, but I believe Thrak is one of the best King Crimson records. Anglagard was just so balsy for when it came out

My favorite 90s prog record has gotta be My Arms Your Hearse from Opeth, but Rajaz always gets a nod in my book as well

I agree; I only rank Marbles higher. But that one too I consider to be 2 albums - a pop one that I don't really listen to all that much, and a separate prog one that I listen to quite often (consisting only of Invisible Man, Neverland, and Ocean Cloud - which is the length of a typical album).

No competition for the mighty 'Hybris' here! Well deserved.

Dream Theater for me
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

THRAK.
A bit surprised that a retro-band is taking this one away...

The razamataz is a pain in the bum
