Both Spock's Beard and the Flower Kings would have been in the running but they are listed as Symphonic rather than Neo.  Disapprove  Marillion is worth consideration but I am only interested in the early Fish years and there are only a few releases of that, not counting live albums.  The only other band that I have interest in that fits is IQ, a tremendous band who have done some of their best work on their more recent releases.

Airbag or Wobbler. Or Magenta. Definitely none of those on the list above.

Marillion, easy choice for me

this poll is missing some great neo-prog bands like

Arena
Satellite
Galahad
Jadis
Airbag
Sylvan

Echolyn, TFK and Spock's Beard are not neo-prog bands if you ask me, but anyway...

my two faves from this list are

Marillion & Echolyn

I don't think of Echolyn as neo, but whatever

I'll vote for Echolyn
Prog On!

IQ is the most consistent neo prog band from the list  , and Ever is my choice as best album from them together with The seventh house and The wake

IQ by a smidgeon over Marillion and Pendragon.

IQ have made several superb albums, but Ever, The Wake, Subterranea and the incredible Road of Bones are my favourites.
Marillion made four superb albums from Fugazi to Seasons End, which is my favourite of all.
Pendragon's three albums from The Window of Life to Not of this World are superb, but The Masquerade Overture is the best.

Truthfully, every band on that list has made good albums.
