Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

Asgard - Imago Mundi (7 reviews) Great album, lot of emotion and power, Kiko Groso amazing vocalist
Ef - Give Me Beauty or Give Me Death   (3 reviews) perfect post rock made in sweden 
Eksi Ekso - I´Am Your b*****d Wings (4 reviews) one of my favorites, perfect album, post rock with fragile vocals and violins
Koi - In Tomorrow Hid Yesterday (1 review)  another hiden gem from Sweden, melancholic and autumnal, my fav album of 2010
Timothy Pure - Island Of The Misfit Toys (6 reviews) emotional prog rock, a mix between pink floyd and porcupine Tree
The Amber Light - Goodbye To Dusk Farewell To Dawn (7 reviews) prog related, if you like radiohead, talk talk and Sigur Ros, emotional and modern
Ines - Hunting The Fox (3 reviews) great bombastic neo from Germany, Ines its a great composer and keyboardist
The Church - Man Woman Life Death Infinity (No reviews) great and overlooked album by The Church, psychedelic and melodic, great!
Ezra Winston - Myth Of The Chrysavides (6 reviews) This album made by the Italians Ezra Winston its great, only edited in vynil format (1988) by Musea, a classic, if you like neo with acoustic parts, go for it!
Dagmahr - As Far As We Get (3 reviews) If you like VDGG (still life period) with a singer like Peter Gabriel give it a chance now!
Sense - Stone in The Sky (1 review) great crossover prog by this canadian band from Quebec, I enjoy it a lot
Hour Of The Shipwreck - The Hour Is Upon Us (1 review) my fav album of 2008, heavy, dramatic, delicate, sensitive, very personal and unique sound, highly recommend it

The two albums by Musica Urbana from Spain, rated 4.2 and 4.4 respectively. Really unique and jaw-dropping.

Said it before and will say it again...

Janison Edge: The Services Of Mary Goode 

(for neo fans who like sumptuous female vocals and swirly keys)

I struggled to think of any

IO Earth - Acoustic Vol 1
Davy O'List - Second Thoughts
John Hackett & Nick Fletcher - Beyond The Stars
Sergio Alvarez - Escenas De Ficcion

none of those are particularly exciting though

Tin Spirits ( a band including Dave Gregory of BBT) have a couple of albums . The debut has 10 ratings but by far the best is Scorch which has 12 ratings. That is an absolute gem so I didn't want to not mention it!

Tangerine Dream - Pilots Of Purple Twilight (The Virgin Recordings 1980-1983) has only 7 ratings but is my favourite era this group.

Rich, knowing we have fairly similar tastes, where would you suggest I start with IO Earth?

Afasia - "Nelle Vesti Del Mio Ego"  ...one review

Outstanding combo of classic Italian prog influenced by Dream Theater type metal.  Concept album doubles as extended metaphor.

Thanks To Jared for mentioning Janison Edge.......Magenta  ( Element sounds like Booth to me which is fine), IQ, Marillion, and even Phideaux imho all rolled into one. 
Sadly I don't have any 'less than 10 reviews' bands to mention ....
