I guess I should say "don't get me started" LOL.  Apart from "ignore Micky and his trolling Wink".

The shout out for Lifesigns is a good one, however for me the best relatively new Neo band out there is definitely Sanguine Hum.  They're not your typical Neo outfit, and the fragile vocals may put some off, however their fresh sound and amazing chord progressions certainly get my prog senses tingling.

Barock Project have the lead on Neo-Prog album chart 2105.
Who has released the best neo-prog album this year?

Not sure that you can call Barock Project , neo.

Why?

Because of all the bands mentioned here, it is the only one that doesn't SUCK.

You will have to convince me that they are indeed neo.

Recently stumbled across a Dutch band called Silhouette. Their last album Beyond The Seventh Wave is an absolute beauty and for me the best neo prog album since IQ's Road Of Bones.

Listen also to Paul Roland (albums Re-Animator and Pavane). He sings like Phideaux Xavier. Wink

Frost* is my personal favorite band of all time, and their album Milliontown is a true masterpiece of modern prog.


Also, Satellite is a band that I feel doesn't get nearly enough attention. Their album Evening Games is a rare gem that every Neo Prog fan needs to hear.


Finally, Galleon's magnum opus "The Ocean" is a perfect description of everything awesome about Neo Prog.

Falling Satellites by Frost* is the one of the biggest disappointments of 2016

Satellite? This is only the shadow of a great group Collage
