This is my personal list (unortunately no masterpiece for 2007, from what I've heard):

  1. New Trolls - Concerto Grosso the Seven Seasons (4,50)
  2. Conqueror - 74 Giorni (the appeal of this record has improved with more listenings)  (4,25)
  3. La Torre dell'Alchimista - Neo (4,00)
  4. Porcupine Tree - Fear of a Blank Planet (3,75)
  5. The Watch - Primitive (3,50)
  6. Notabene - Sei Lacrime d'Ambra (3,50)
  7. Anekdoten - A Time of Day (3,25)
  8. Kaipa - Angling Feelings (2,50)
  9. Ainur - s/t (2,50)

Although I'm sure most of you could guess my number 1, I think 2007 was a very good year for prog! Lots of great music!

Some major disappointments too though Angry Riverside and Radiohead to name a couple.

Porcupine Tree - Fear of a Blank Planet
Grayceon - Grayceon
Battles - Mirrored

Yup thats about it. A top 3.

Hi friends, this is César Inca. I'm still to listen to the Oblivion Sun album, which has a special meaning for me as an avid Happy the Man fan, but here's my Top 10 list.-
 
1. OUTER LIMITS - Stormatolite
2. KBB - Proof of Concept
3. ACCORDO DEI CONTRARI - Kinesis
4. CANVAS SOLARIS - Cortical Tectonics
5. SENOGUL - Senogul
6. MAR DE ROBLES - Indígena
7. SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM - In Glorious Times
8. AMAROK - Sol de Medianoche
9. XANG - The Last of the Lasts
10. OMNI - Sólo Fue un Sueño
 
As you can see, two Japanese acts top my list, and there are three from spain in this Top 10, plus a Latin American one - I honestly believe that Senogul's debut album is pure progressive genius, and so is Mar de Robles' sophomore effort "Indígena".
 
         Kind regards.
