So? I think this decade is better than the ´90...it has some new stuff, some excellent albums and some bands like Opeth, The Mars Volta among others are in their peak...
So, what year was better? To help you I put this link to the top 100, there you can see which albums where in every year... http://www.progarchives.com/top-prog-albums.asp
For me it´s between 2001 and 2003...although all years have some excellent stuff!

I agree that things have been getting better and better in prog these past few years. For me, 2005 was the best year, followed by 2003.

2001 - I've listened to MOSTLY AUTUMN music for the first time.
Didn't expect modern bands can be so good.

i cant decide between 2002(for mei-echolyn, remedy lane-PoS, and In Absentia-Porcupine Tree) or 2003(for The power to believe-King Crimson, Mei-Echolyn, skymind-Taal)

2002 was a good year
Mei - echolyn
Remedy Lane - PoS
In Absentia - PoS
 
but 2003 was better
The power to believe - King Crimson
Skymind - Taal
Damnation - Opeth
 
 
HELP!

Agreed.

Add Frances the Mute and Takk to that list, and you've got a damn good year.

2005 was great, but I have a feeling '06 will kick its ass, especially if Radiohead release their damn album soon!

Definately 2002, three progressive legends released doubled albums.
 
The Flower Kings- Unfold the Future
Dream Theater- Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
Spock's Beard- Snow
 
not to mention Pain of Salvation's Remedy Lane.  Coincidently all 4 of the mentioned releases are my favorite album from each band.  2002 was the best for sure.

Im also pretty optimistic about 06...I feel this year will see many great albums...well in fact it already has, right?
The Flower Kings, Tool, the Tangent, Devin Townsend, "Kayo do"...I put them in brackets cause...I dont like them, but I now many do...so...
and Im sure there will be more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I voted 2005, how can you deny deadwing, Good Apollo, etc. But 2006 looks like it'll be amazing. David Gilmours album was great, The Flaming Lips, etc. I think I heard something about a New Rush album, and a new Radiohead.
