This may help: Link: http://www.progarchives.com/top-prog-albums.asp?syears=2021" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/top-prog-albums.asp?syears=2021 Just pick a year (see the image below). You can also change the parameters on the right.  Welcome, by the way.

^ I don't think that's what the OP is asking. ^^ No, I'm not aware of any way to browse the archives by year. ------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man. |

I presume he is asking to filter by year, the same way you can by PA genre or country. It’s something I’ve wanted to do, too, at times - but I have no idea if it can be done (and if it can be, how it can be done). You can use the top 100 list, but that certainly doesn’t give a full picture. ------------- https://tinyurl.com/nickhnz-tpa" rel="nofollow - Reviewer for The Progressive Aspect |

I think what the OP is looking for is a way to find the albums that were released in a chosen year (or years). ------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands.

How do you filter by country? ------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man. |

it's amazing how the site looked back then, I'm gonna go to 2005-2006 and see what it looked like, that's when I discovered it. July 2005, top 100 looked different than now.

Because there's Art Rock which was later split into Eclectic, Crossover and Heavy Prog. Same goes for Prog Metal. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

I know, I was around, my early days on PA. I didn't explain it right.
 I wanted to see if people notice "art-rock". |

If I remember right, I did some lurking for a while, so I think I discovered PA in 2005.
