Bowie out of these

Polygondwanaland is amazing!

Blackstar is similarly great.

The Miraculous is very cool, too.

David Bowie, Cisnienie, William D. Drake, that's three votes already spent in the first five. Let's look further down, OK, I a Moon and Glowing Man have to be voted for, which leaves no vote for Squid, Sprain, Motorpsycho, Electric Orange and many others. Sorry!

David Bowie - Blackstar

Radiohead - A Moon Shaped Pool

Swans - The Glowing Man

Squid - O Monolith

Black Midi - Hellfire

These are 25 of my usual kinds of suspects included in Prog Archives (ergo, this would be boring to many). By the way, David Bowie's Blackstar turns 9 years old from date of release today. and I still consider it be a masterpiece and a hugely remarkable achievement.

Vote for up to five of these if you can, and mention in a post. Or more if you really want. :)

	I can certainly go for the 'big hitters' Bowie, Black Midi and Radiohead but there is a lot I don't know tbh.

	For those of you who use AP polls, the decade polls can be convenient to build your favorites list: https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/ap/aotd-2010/vote I haven't listened to most of these properly (meaning: more than one or two times), but for the time being my vote goes to Black Midi and Squid ...
