This poll is comprised of three main sections, plus an "other" option to be used if none of the listed options hold much appeal or are known to you.

- The first set of eight is the eight top eight albums in the PA chart for 2019 (with no filters set except for the year).
- The second section of eight is from the top nine of the PA Collab AOTY Event. The album of the year (IQ's Resistance) is the top ranked album in the PA chart and so not duplicated.
- The Third section are my top eight as listed at Awesome Prog.
- Then "other" as said if none of the choice hold much appeal.

Please vote for your favourite in the poll if there is one you like and mention any favourites not listed. For instance, one might vote for Big Big Train's Grand Tour but then state that your actual favourite is The Flower Kings' Waiting for Miracles.

Again, no multiple-choice, but mention all your faves in a post if you want to share. Sharing is caring! :)

Swans from the list, followed by The Comet is Coming, Vanishing Twin, Lingua Ignota.

(Non prog) albums of the year: 
Matmos - Plastic Anniversary,  Elbejee - Homeopathic Waft of Signal
In prog I was very positively surprised by Banco's Transiberiana. Chances are I'll love the Cisnienie album, but I haven't heard it yet.

I think I'll go for ni's Pantophobie. I've been trapped all day inside a container of pistachio pudding.

Flip a coin between Stephan Thelen's Fractal Guitar and Motorpsycho's The Crucible. Yes I voted "other".
And there are others on here I like a lot like Opeth, Jordsjo, Melting Clock, Monkey3 and IQ.
How about Le Grand Sbam? Love the vocals on that one.
