I promise I will do the survey in late November. :) I did see your list so far and it's pretty good. You cover a lot. Just a couple I think you can add for now that I saw were missing. :) IQ--Tales From The Lush Attic (remix/reissue 2013) Clive Nolan--Alchemy Fates Warning--A Darkness in A Different Light Arena--The Rapture. Ulver---Messe I.X--VI.X WinterSun--Time I And for the future.... I think the new Aryeon album: THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING will be great. :) Catch you later. :) |

Update
The Deafheaven album turned out to be a miss. A heavy carbon copy of Alcest The new Ulver though is downright amazing! Unique fresh take on the Berlin School of electronics entwined with some modern classical strings and creepy dark ambient whiffs. Fantastic release Still can't afford to buy the new Vespero and it bugs the hell out of me

I thought I would check the PA list of top symph albums for this year and I got this. Didn't know that Spocks Beard were even counted as 'symph'. In fact the the other album I mentioned as neo prog in my previous post is apparently' 'crossover'. . I like them nevertheless
Anyway the other albums on the list. Not a great year for Symph although I guess I have to check out that top album.

Fright Pig is good but not sure its should have that high a rating. Sounds like a prog metal band playing symphonic style music. Good fun. WIll go on my list for the year probably top five.

^^ looks like the year for symphonic Prog only.
I am really interested to see what the end poll results will be for this year. It's been an incredible year. My list is getting really long. I'll wait one more month then post the sucker and do progshine's incredible survey. |

Richard. What do you think of the Magenta: The 27 club album? Anyways I'd be very interested to hear your top 10 for this year seeing as how I feel 2013 has been the bees knees for me thus far. :) |

I generally buy top 100 stuff unless it is a favorite group, so everything in my collection is 4 or 5 star material. PA deserves some credit for making it easy to find music I would enjoy.

I need to give it more listens. I respect Rob Reed a lot , am slightly in love with Christina, think Chris Fry is a major talent who deserves more recognition then he gets (his solo album is wonderfull) while Andy Edwards is one the best drummers. This should be a cracking album really but I'm not getting it as yet.

An amazing album of 10's new prog revolution and for sure the best Psychedelic/Progressive Rock release this year : PSICOMAGIA's self-titled debut http://psicomagiamusic.bandcamp.com/album/psicomagia

It changes all the time these days.... Cool you dig that Hopkins album, I'm completely won over by it as well. Reminds me a lot of Orbital's 1996 release In Sides. May wanna check it out if you're on the look out for some more electronic music

The Mountain by Haken was good, but I didn't really like The Raven That Refused To Sing that much. I don't think it should be on the top of the Crossover Prog list above albums like Crime Of The Century, Iamthemorning's debut, and Procol Harum's Shine On Brightly
