Three of the greatest albums of the past 15 years were released in 2009:

Miriodor - Avanti!
Cheer-Accident - Fear Draws Misfortune
Forgas Band Phenomena - L'Axe du Fou

All three released on Cuneiform Records, one of our local glories. Out of the original list, I'd choose The Underfall Yard, the only BBT album I consider worthy of all the accolades. Drew's second list is more to my taste, with the sublime GBS and Delirium's best album to date (their latest was a huge disappointment).

These two literally changed the way I think about music and reinvigorated my interest in music generally and 'difficult' music in particular. I adore both.

I know the Miriodor and Forgas Band Phenomena albums very well but not the Cheer-Accident. The former are just not enough of my 'cup of tea' to make my Top 20. (Remember: 2009 was a very good year for prog!)

Awesome list, Ian! Full of stuff I've never even heard of. Unfortunately, Present, Aranis, miRthikon, Simon, Diablo, Kotebel, Future Kings, and Sunn O))) were not favored enough to make my Top 20. As I said to Raff:  2009 was a very good year....

Jono El Grande - Neo Dada 
Vektor - Black Future 
Umberto - From the Grave 
Hills - Hills
Traditionalists (aka Secret Chiefs 3) - Le Mani Destre Recise Degli Ultimi Uomini
Maudlin of the Well - Part the Second 
Sula Bassana - The Night 
Aranis - Songs From Mirage 
Magma - Ëmëhntëhtt-Ré 
Gösta Berlings Saga - Detta Har Hänt

That good eh? I better relocate my digital version and pay it a revisit. Its my favorite Maudlin-album no doubt but its always been all about Kayo Dot for me 


Edit: found it on bandcamp instead and listening right now - glad I did. More of a chamber prog gem than I remembered.

OK - reveal here, didn't realize until a minute ago we were talking about 2009 only.  OK, then it's got to be BBT Underfall Yard, ADRIAN BELEW's "e", or  Crack the Skye by MASTODON.

[Previous text of post: I can't vote for some reason ... but Big Big Train's Folklore is definitely growing on me. (It's my first, I was a BBT virgin until a couple of weeks ago! Big smile)

I am more a fan of classic prog than the newfangled stuff, generally.
But here are some entries I would suggest for the prize of "Best of 'aughties" --

  KING CRIMSON: The Power To Believe
  OMAR RODRIGUEZ-LOPEZ: The Apocalypse Inside Of An Orange
  PORCUPINE TREE: Deadwing
  MARILLION: Marbles
  MAGENTA: Seven
