The only problem is, the only two artists I'm familiar with out of those you mentioned are Dream Theater and Porcupine Tree. Smile
Yes, well I'm not familiar with Thank You Scientist or Big Big Train yet - hope to get their stuff later - they're just what came to mind.

I might struggle to fill 25 slots in any single year from 1990 onwards. Smile

If you do have issues filling slots, I'd be willing to help out—I listen to quite a lot of modern prog as its how I was introduced to the genre as a whole.

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

^ Thanks. I think I'll leave it to someone else to organise a series of 1990's prog polls. Smile

Surprised that Rush are so far in front. Duke is a damn good album.
