based on you def. of new as being after 1979 (quite absurd in 2020): 

Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium

Why not:  

Best Neo-Prog Debut Album after 79

Some of the Neo Prog debut albums that you've missed that, in my humble opinion, far exceed all the above poll-listed albums include:
ANYONE'S DAUGHTER's Adonis from 1979
BABYLON's self-titled debut from 1978 
GALADRIEL's Muttered Promises from An Ageless Pond (1988)
PAZZO FANFANO DI MUSICA's self-titled debut from 1989
NEUSCHWANSTEIN's Battlement from 1978
IVORY's Sad Cypress from 1980
TRILOGY's Here it Is from 1979
COLLAGE's Baznie from 1990
SATELLITE's A Street Between Sunrise and Sunset from 2003
MOTH VELLUM's self-titled debut from 2007
I AND THOU's Speak from 2012
QUIDAM's self-titled debut from 1996
SANHEDRIN's Ever After from 2011
JOHN HOLDEN's Capture Light from 2018
LIFESIGN's self-titled debut from 2013



Thanks for the recommendations. Thumbs Up I've never heard of any of those bands before. You have enough bands there to run your own Neo-Prog poll. Smile

I'm not a Neo-Prog fan at all, so I was quite delighted to see bands that I've heard and like which aren't really Neo-Prog. So between them, I voted for Frost*

You'll be pleased to hear Frost* are now included in the poll in Slot No. 11. Smile They replaced Jadis.
 
Marilliion are romping well-ahead in the poll at the moment. Smile


Not sure why you felt the need to replace Jadis, who are much more "neo-prog" than Frost*!

And Marillion and IQ are romping away with it between them, with Marillion still catchable....Tongue
I replaced Jadis with Frost* after GrumpyProgFan suggested I add them so he could vote for their "Milliontown" debut. I didn't think anyone would miss Jadis because no one voted for them in my last Neo-Prog Poll. Smile

IQ's debut has some remarkably strong tracks.

With Marillion romping away, I can safely give my vote to the wonderful Milliontown by Frost*

I voted for Le Grand Sbam - Vaisseau Monde. You can't get anymore neo prog than that!

Spock's Loaf have just about earned their crust in this poll with one vote so far, although they're not on a roll like Marillion. Smile

you should really not lump in all of these bands under neo prog

you could just as easily  call this   a  New Jazz list

it makes just as much sense
Prog On!

Marillion  - don't seem to be allowed to vote maybe I'm too new

Rather partial to a bit of Aragon but they aren't an option  - thought they'd be neo prog
