No Wobbler or Deluge Grander? Your list is incomplete!

These should be excellent additions indeed (they candidate for #2 and #3 on my list).

Grimspound for me. I have also bought 4 of these and heard all the others. You need to get Wobbler.

From these I only have Grimspound, and it's just OK... or even good, but I don't really love it. I think I heard some Lonely Robot checking out songs, and they didn't impress me much... at least not enough to make me want check them out better. And To the Bone is yet among the albums I have yet to get (it isn't available yet here, and I have been waiting for it to arrive at the store instead of ordering it). I'm also waiting for Ayreon's album to arrive. However, out of the albums I have heard this year, the one I have really liked a lot are Oldfiel's "Return to Ommadawn", Soup's "Remedies", and Unreal City's "Frammenti Notturni".

The Second Brightest Star is BBT's best album since English Electric Part One (imo) so I am a little surprised that Grimspound is leading the way. Magenta - We Are Legend is my album of the year but obviously not on this list.

This is exactly the sort of response I hoped for. Fantastic to see every album on this list has at least one vote.

I also think Magenta's - We Are Legend, is a really great album! Nad Sylvan, Anathema, Wobbler and Threshold are also up there in addition to the poll list - I think I'll have a bit of a personal retrospective myself on what I got this year during the festive break - a strong year for prog IMHO - thanks for getting me thinking!

I've heard 4 of these. The two BBT albums, Mostly Autumn and the Wilson one I own myself. Sadly none of them resonates with me. No vote.
