The Flower King is an incredible record.

I thought of that one in this top 3 sh*ttiest years of music as well. Either strong dislike or lukewarm to every album I've heard in the poll so here's a few actual favorites instead. One of them on PA or two including Blade Runner.
Tortoise - Tortoise Attacca Percussion Ensemble - Giacinto Scelsi - Music for Wind Instruments and Percussion Uakti - I Ching Combustible Edison - I, Swinger Burzum - Hvis lyset tar oss & London Symphony Orchestra orchestra Polish Radio National Symphony Orchestra orchestra Wanda Wiłkomirska violin Krakow Philharmonic Chorus - Krzysztof Penderecki - Matrix 5

A very good call indeed . There are many other fine albums on the list but my favourite is The Flower King. It's a bit twee in places but there are so many great moments, a real indication of what was to come.

I really don't get h-Marillion. Collage's "Moonshine" has one of the worst production jobs I've ever heard.
I'll go with The Flower King, one of the most solid albums from Stolt and co. Other than that, Par Lindh Project and Anglagard are pretty good. Sweden kind of took over in the 90's.

My favorite prog album of 1994 is Vangelis' Blade Runner. (The film came out around '81, but he didn't release the soundtrack till '94.) Other favorite albums not on the list: the Page and Plant MTV reunion album (Unledded), - which is probably prog related(?) - and Aphex Twins's Selected Ambient Works, Vol. 2, which isn't on PA, but is his most electronic prog/ambient/Eno-ish album...
Anyway, I went for Marillion's Brave.

Queensr˙che, Promised Land.

When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.

Would've voted for Motorpsycho's "Timothy's Monster" had it been on the list, but since it's not I'll go with

Not a big Hogarth era - Marillion fan, but in this poll I voted for them nevertheless.

Moonshine. Collage's best album and a great representation of high quality neo-prog.

Push & Profit for me. If Discipline had broken up after this and not recorded Unfolded or Shattered, it probably would be viewed as a classic.

Yep that's a great album so I feel a bit guilty about voting for Oldfield's Songs Of Distant Earth which is also a bit special. I have a nagging feeling that Par Lindh made a couple of albums that were even better though ( Veni Vidi Vici and Mundus Incompertus) while Oldfield never achieved another gem like Songs Of Distant Earth.
I also like Awake and Epilog on the list but not as much as the 2 above.

Brave is when my love for Marillion started to die, Division Bells has High Hopes inside and to me this qualifies it as best album of 1994
