Yes, Fly from Here (2011) and Heaven & Earth (2014) are two of my favourite Yes albums, and besides which, I barely know any other prog albums from this past decade, so I'm with NotaProghead. Embarrassed

Me neither. My idea of a modern prog band is the Flower Kings. Confused

Fortunately, no matter how old farts like me are stuck in the 70s, the show will never end.
Hope one long-hair new band or another will be a discovery for me.

Have you heard Wobbler yet? They all have long hair. Wink

I thought The Flower Kings were a modern prog band. I've heard of Wobbler, but I haven't heard any of their albums. I listen to as many as eight prog albums a day, but that's mainly old-school prog. Smile

I'd have to say that Big Big Train are my favorite band of the 2010's but there have been a lot of great prog releases in the last 10 years.

Well, many of my favorite albums of the 2010s come from bands who didn't release music in any sort of consistent stream. As far as the artist that I think best represented the prog sound in the 2010s, it would have to be a toss up between Haken, Steven Wilson and Thank You Scientist

My personal favorites would be Wobbler, Opeth and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

A debut in '95 makes them a modern prog band, a band who debuted in '69 and last good album was '77 is not a modern prog band.

Drama and 90125 are good albums, the 2010s have certainly not been the decade of Yes though

Two bands qualify: Big Big Train and The Tangent. Both are great, but based on personal tastes BBT pulls it off.

Not a fan personally but I tend to agree on BBT.

Big Big Train, The Psychedelic Ensemble, Bent Knee, Corde Oblique, Steven Wilson, Motorpsycho, Magma, iamthemorning, Thieves' Kitchen, Arnaud Bukwald, and Wobbler are all worthy choices for best band of the 20teens, but I'd have to go with one of the bands that have most occupied my listening time:
Homunculus Res 
Alio Die
Battlestations 
Cicada (neo-classical Post Rock from Taiwan that has been rejected for submission by PA)
Faun
Ulver
Unaka Prong 

These are the artists I have listened to and continue to listen to the most (from that decade). It's a tough choice, but my single favorite band has to be either Homunculus Res or Unaka Prong. The music of both bands makes me so feel so good!

To you maybe. It's all relative. If we're talking "modern history," then Bach is modern.

Probably Homunculus Res (very subject to change as I'm still busy catching up with stuff from the last decade)
