These are the winners for each year of the 00's of course. I'm sure with three Porcupine Tree albums here that the votes for them will be split somewhat, same with IQ. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

No Frances the Mute or Deloused *sigh* I know i won't be voting for the PT crew. I think i'm going to stay loyal to The Tangent. ------------- Crushed like a rose in the riverflow. |

A tough one even though very few of my favorites from the Naughties are present. When thinking of "progressing" music forward, I have to choose Fear of a Blank Planet over Lateralus and Lift Your Skinny Hands. ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |

Yea, it's a real shame that the decade is so poorly represented here. ------------- Crushed like a rose in the riverflow. |

Uh, yeah, Godspeed, no doubt about that. Just a work of art. I think it really deserves the win here.

Dark Matter followed closely by Out of Myself and Frequency, but some great albums there.
And as usual nowadays, the album I like by far the least of all of them is winning. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

I'd love to go with something more obscure here but really, "in Absentia" remains one of my all time favorite albums and it's pretty hard for me to vote against it. ------------- -------someone please tell him to delete this line, he looks like a noob------- I don't have an unnatural obsession with Disney Princesses, I have a fourteen year old daughter and coping mechanisms. |

Lateralus I guess. Nothing particualrly special in this list though.

I have actually just listened to Lateratus right through and, whilst it's an album I've never previously really understood/liked, I actually began to enjoy it a lot. I also really saw for the first time why Tool are classed as progressive.

How odd; I really don't like King Crimson!!
But it now does leave only one album I dislike intensely on that list and, as normal, that's winning. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

I'm giving my vote to the only album of these I own, Insurgents. I've lived with it for just a week, but it's already favourite of mine. -------------

After some consideration and absence I went with In Absentia. The Tangent and IQ were the other two that I was giving the most consideration to. -------------

Fear of a blank planet, one of the best PT records and my fav of the bunch. It's a real mystery to me why Deadwing won the previous poll and earned its place here ... ------------- https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Infinite-Progability-Drive/141225469388975" rel="nofollow - The Infinite Progability Drive , feeding you daily progressive/weird music for just a like <3 |

Fear Of A Blank Planet is a bit overrated. I remember them debuting some of the material at The London Astoria including an early version of Anesthetize. Steven Wilson was a little amused to the reaction when he said it was their first long song since the nineties. I like it and its certainly a good album but it doesn't oust Deadwing in my affections as far as PT albums go. |
