Notice that in both lists classic era prog bands secured the #2 spots with VDGG and PFM for 2005 and 2006 respectively.

France the Mute is top of my list.

its the most organic album ive heard since animals, better yet close to the edge. seriously.
 
everything inbetween is heavy on the electronics synths (which is not bad dont get me wrong).
 
if i just had a copy in vinyl i would be so flippin happy.

It seems that most people don't have access to the album and simply never heard of it. At least I don't have any idea where to get a copy.

 

I lloked over the net and found it either on their official wbsite or at SynPhonic (where I bought it).

Let's just hope that in the best of 2006 there will be more overshadowed genres on the list

OK...The Dreams of Mean has eclipsed Believe for me.  It's far too good, creative, inspired and different from Pallas's past albums.

Indeed it is, a much overlooked band and album, it's a shame it wasn't discovered earlier, otherwise it may have got some votes.

That album is excellent

Just found this on Wobbler's website:

News!

Lars, March 11 2006

Merry christmas and a happy new year! And have a nice summer vacation in case we forget to update in time.. Some news is that we made top 5 (or was it top 3 or 6 in some places?) in several polls for album of the year, like at www.progarchives.com, gagliarchives.com and the Norwegian Scream magazine (www.screammagazine.com). The new songs we are rehearsing are very cool by the way. And in case we will forget; happy birthday, Sven Eriksen and Geir Larzen.



Nice to see we're appreciated!
