Best prog album of 2007?

My vote goes for either KBB's "Proof of Concept", OUTER LIMITS' "Stromatolite", CANVAS SOLARIS' "Cortical Tectonics", SENOGUL's "Senogul", ACCORDO DEI CONTRARI's "Kinesis" or SGM's "In Glorious Times".

 

      Therefore...   NONE OF THE ABOVE!!!!! 

Do Make Say Think - You, You're a History in Rust

Thanks  In that thread, you ask for basics and there's more than enough people who can give you that here. It seems unrelated to recommend best of 2007 there (though Senogul's album is one hell of an album, regardless of year). Enjoy your discoveries

thanks

I never heard about 'em before Don't misunderstand me, I'm not a big proger, I'm almost new-proggie :)   I didn't say it's not a good album (I like it, but that's about it) but there are so many albums I find to be so much better than it released this year (and I keep finding more albums each week).   I'm having hard times deciding top favourites (I usually don't do it, but as we have a poll going on in the collab zone so I need to pick) but PT is not even in my top 20, there's so many other great albums which so far have only been named once in this thread if any at all. I understand that most people will go for the high profile bands, and I listen to those too, but there are many gems which are very much worth the bother (you can look for recommendations in specific threads and in thread I open as well if you're interested. You can also PM me if you wish ).

Chingado, que nadie habla español aquí?

Shels- Sea of Dhying Dhow, oh wait, not hear...

The Flower Kings

The Flower Kings - The Sum of No Evil

Ritual- The Hemulic Voluntary Band

Both the above are better than any up there in the voting options. Somewhere Else was a huge disappointment to me, and I cannot even believe I wasted my money on Systematic Chaos, which was Dream Theater repeating everything they had already done. Of those, options, Snakes and Arrows & Fear of a Blank Planet were two decent albums. 

I have to say, that I voted for BTBAM's Colors, because it is just amazing songwriting. But I am sad to see that Mind's Eye's "Gentleman's Hurricane" was not on the list...That release deserves some recognition IMHO.
