Deadwing is top 3 Porcupine Tree easily and so gets my vote although Octavarium is my favourite DT album and although Frances The Mute is insanely brilliant, it scares the sh*t out of me!

The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute  >  Riverside - Second Life Syndrome
                      quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

Octavarium. I put my foot in the sock and all the photons fell out.

Tough one, but Opeth's best album takes the cake (for me).

And there's no Threshold this time around, which you thoroughly support on these poll series. Tongue

it's one of my favorite bands, very consistent, never released a weak album. 

I'll make a small list of 2005 albums, the 2000s had a ton of great progressive metal. Smile

Me too... as you know, Threshold and Vanden Plas are my fave PM bands.. Smile

I hope your list has the first Redemption on it... much prefer it to most of them on this list.

very hard to go against Deadwing there...

then, it's DT's last great album > Riverside

it's funny, because putting the Petrucci aside, I literally don't like any of the others at all!

Enter 2005! This one's coming shortly after the previous one, which has a clear favorite so far... I do have a feeling that there are three very clear favorites here as well but let's see how it turns out. Star
My vote goes to the incredible release from The Mars Volta.
