Happy Independance Day everyone! Unfortunately there's not much American content on this poll other than the two New York based bands Naked City and The Psychedelic Ensemble, and Ga'an based in Chicago.
There's five on here including Ga'an that I rate really high. The keyboard whisperer Lars Fredrik Froislie, Katatonia, L'Alebero Del Veleno and Zyma. I have to think about this one.

Zyma's album is a very close second.

That's a good album, although it's been a while since i listened to it.
They've just released a new album, quite good IMO.

I guess I should know, but what is SUB 56. A subwoofer? Like like a handful of these, but I love Tale Of A Dark Fate.

I really need to spin Planets, it's been too long. Love your second pick and I'm still debating about voting for it or Lars or Ga'an. Down to those three.

Nice! The first great Katatonia album in my opinion, and best of their earlier styles before going more prog metal on The Great Cold Distance.

Discouraged Ones is my favorite from them.

Eloy > Naked City, I only know three of these.

Oops, my bad for even posting this album.
I have fond memories of private messaging with the man behind this project who was anonymous at the time. I think I called him mister. Kidding. But a very impressive concept album this one, with very detailed liner notes. I have the cd in front of me now which I believe he sent me back then. He called it a progressive-rock drama.

Nice! An organ driven album that featured a 17 year old drummer named Curt Cress who would go on to play with Passport and Triumvirat. 1970 was the year for this release.

You would have to read the intro of the SUB 60 poll. But I just did a search on here in the top rated albums section and based on that modified search I got a top 100 from 15 sub genres(SUB). I'm going 60 to 1 with the connection in each poll being that these albums all finished in the same position based on my original search. So here, all of these15 albums finished in 56th place in their respective sub-genres.
