Ah, Swilson didn't get #1. There is justice in the world!
And many more thanks to you, Andy.

Thanks to Andy and all the others for the hard work. I haven't heard much stuff from last year due to a complete lack of free time but I'll get to listening to all of that right away.

Yea that was a bit strange. Especially because their debut is under Unreal City.

I have 2 in the top 10 and 4 in the top 20. Makes me kind of sad that I spent so much time listening to 2015 albums over the last couple of months in order to prepare my list and it had zero impact on the top 10, which would have been the exact same without my list.  Oh well, I guess given that the downside meant that I got to listen to whole lot of great music doesn't make it such a bad thing. The only album I haven't heard in the top 10 is the one from Unreal City, which I wasn't able to find streaming on-line. The other 9 albums are solid releases and although none of them made my personal top 10, no complaints from me. Thanks for compiling it Andy. I am curious to see what the list looks like if you only include the collaborators top 10 votes, instead of 20. I wonder if it makes any difference.

I am also happy about Reve General, whose debut is superb. Personally, I would have liked William D. Drake to rank higher (as it did, surprisingly, in the DPRP Collabs list), though I understand it's an album that will not necessarily appeal to everyone.

Hi Karl - good to see you again. If you're planning on a little jootoobing then check out Finnish band Circle's Pharaoh Overlord;-) Krautrock a la Navajo with basstrombone in copious amounts. Somewhat repetitive yet wonderfully hypnotic. I actually stumbled back n forth between it and Silver Mountain for my AOTY.

Way to go Andy Four of mine made the top10 with another two in the top20. Really surprised Guapo made the final 10...hopefully more people will check out that album.

Another thing I'd like to add is that I found it excrusiatingly hard producing this list. Looking down the final result now and I find so many albums I would have liked to include. I count at least 15 that are just as great as 2/3rds of my list.
Wonderful year for progressive music!
