Great work, as ever, so thanks Andy.

I tell you what strikes me as much as anything......just how much new music is still being released under the Prog banner.

We live in fine times, my friends

I would have put money on either Swans or IQ being #1...guess I didn't look at enough lists! Tongue
 
So close for Poil...and selfishly my list...Overall a decent year for prog IMO. Not many 'world shaking' albums for me but a fair helping of very very good to great.

I can appreciate Swans more than perhaps actually like them.  (I'm the one who added the album to the database!)  The songs are just too long and repetitious on these last two albums.  I much prefer their "reunion" album My Father Will Guide Me Up A Rope To The Sky.

Also a bit amazed the praise for the Kayo Dot album.  To me only one great song (Library Subterranean); and really the second half of the album is much better than the first.

Great work, Andy!

A bit disappointed Kayo Dot didn't go all the way, like I thought it perhaps would, and with Opeth on top, thought that one was pretty bland. But Seven Impale was a nice surprise, both their music and their placement in this list. And more than respectable placements for Motorpsycho and Knifeworld as well! Clap

My top 10 list, and how they fared in the overall ranking:

1. A Silver Mt. Zion - F**k Off Get Free We Pour Light on Everything (15)
2. Kayo Dot - Coffins on Io (8)
3. Motorpsycho - Behind the Sun (6)
4. Guillaume Perret & the Electric Epic - Open Me (28)
5. Fire! Orchestra - Enter (49)
6. Krokofant - s/t (186)
7. SOT - Redwings Nest (204)
8. Goat - Commune (70)
9. Knifeworld - The Unravelling (10)
10. Seven Impale - City of the Sun (3)

Got four albums in the top 10, not bad. About half of the albums in the top 10 list I like, the other half not so much, or haven't heard.

I agree. Discovered a lot of cool stuff, from both older and newer artists, and got myself a few new favourites in the process. All thanks to PA! Thumbs Up

Here's to a just as good 2015. Beer

Nice with the placement for Seven Impale. Saw them live yesterday, and they came across as an excellent and tight live unit well worth experiencing.
Ooohh! Ouch Missed this!

Well, I'll have a watch out for the next time they play in Oslo that's for sure!

Thanks for putting the list together. Knifeworld? Where are all the collabs reviews for this top ten album? Gryphon does RIO.

Grab a cold beer and enjoy the results of your excellent work, Andy Beer

The more new prog I hear, the less agreement there is between my top 10 and PA's. Only two off my list ended up on PA's Top of the 2014 Progs, Opeth (my 2) and Seven Impale (my 7), although Knifeworld only just missed my top 10.

Overall, an average or even less than average year for prog IMO. Pale Communion wasn't even that great in the greater picture but with the year's competition was 'great'.

Very good job Andy! 
 
I got a question.  If this is the 9th annual contest, where are the results for early contests?  And if you got them in the archives, can you pin the results from the 2011, 2010, 2009-2006 contests..?  
 
Edit...I searched for the contests and I found them all going back to 2005.  The 2005 contest was a top 5.  The contest has come a long way.   Congrats again Andy and The Collaborators!Star

Thank you! I think it's a good idea to maybe have an archive post of all the Collab's top lists... I'll do that right now! Big smile

Wow Andy!  I saw the archived multi year collaborator album of the year list.Clap
  I love the aesthetics of the way you posted it.  But most of all,  I like how I can click on an individual year and cruise thru albums the collaborators thought great and powerful. Shocked  What a Fort Knox of golden information! Enough to send me on a Beerdecade long prog rock shopping spree.   Thank you Andy!Cool

Cool, I was really digging that Goat album too Audun, didn't know they were on PA.

And of course, Kayo dot and Silver Mt Zion were sick

Seven Impale was the big discovery from this list for me. It takes a lot for a prog band with jazzy elements to impress me, and this does... big time. just hope the rest of the album is as good as the tracks available on YouTube.

Wish Corvus Stone II had placed higher though... gets better every listen, truly 5-star and my album of the year.

Good lord! I just came to PA to catch up and saw this. Thanks for that Stereo. Nobody will ever listen to it as many times as I did, so I know it sounds good after a lot of them. LOL
It's great to be on any list here. We are very proud!

^ Colin, you should be proud. The band have gotten there by votes cast by collaborators on the site, so absolutely no hint of anything other than a deserved recognition of a fine piece of work
