I must confess I gave up. I made a "pick-one-from-some-of-my-faves"poll! 
Neither the populars(with some exceptions...) nor the rarest things(I'd like to include some REALLY rare CDs,but then turned my head on - who'd vote for them except me?  )
A rational selection - "10 000 Days" is my fave from 2006 OPETH's second is my fave from them GYBE's masterpiece is a Post-Rock fave TMV's debut brought me to Modern Prog DISCIPLINE's album is a New Symphonic fave THE WATCH's is a best album GENESIS never did LDF's one is an Italian Prog fave Gabriel's LP is a surprising present from a Prog veteran COLLAGE's amazing CD is my fave Neo album while SCRIPT is the favouritest and the most important album in my entire life 
vote.I refuse to!

Nearly impossible to pick. Despite my obsession with Opeth, GYBE's Lift Your Skinny Fists is the defining album of post rock, and definitely will go down as an essential milestone for prog.
My top 3 of this list
1. GY!BE
2. Opeth
3. Marillion ------------- When the world is sick Can't no one be well But I dreamt we were all beautiful and strong

In this case I'll have to go first with Peter Gabriel's UP (almost fantastic), and then with Tool's 10.000 (very very good) -------------

From this company I had only 2 choices...
I´ve decided for Gabriel´s UP altough Marillion is great, too. UP is for me one of the best album I´ve ever heard !! It´s a complete music art and the music of the highest quality !! |

| Morningrise, closely followed by Lift Your SKinny Fists... and perhaps Unfollded Like Staircase on 3 |

Marillion, Script ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

| From the albums I´ve heard and given a real listen Í easily pick Script as the winner. Gabriel, Collage and Opeth arge good albums too. |

no apologies allowed! This is a POLL!!!
I'll take it as a sign of respect to my taste
Funny how it goes - only 1 vote for stunning COLLAGE's album and 4 for DISCIPLINE. I've NOT been including MARILLION - an obvious favourite here - but that's my fave,so I'm honest... Nice to see so many votes for LOCANDA. Excellent album!

| Script. Have been getting into Up lately, I think it is a stunning effort. Kind of commercial suicide, too. 10000 days and Deloused are also pretty good. |

Would somebody vote for THE WATCH? Nope? I wish I would but it won't be honest |

I like The Watch very much, actually, but that LDF album is so good. Thanks for your recommendations last year. I only have The Vacuum of the Watch anyway. Good album, but due to the title it must get the odd wag saying, "It sucks!" ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before.

GY!BE gets my vote, but I actually like about two thirds of your choices (and there are a couple I'm not familiar enough with to comment on).
