This has been done before many times...but since the boards changed I'll start a new one.

1. Yes - Close to The Edge
2. Dream Theater - Images and Words
3. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
4. Porcupine Tree - Deadwing
5. Pain of Salvation - The Perfect Element
6. Pain of Salvation - Remedy Lane
7. Unexpect - In A Flesh Aquarium
8. Porcupine Tree - Lightbulb Sun
9. Death - Symbolic
10. Opeth - Blackwater Park

Besides the Top 6, this list can change very, very often. A top 50 is really the only way to show my taste. Way to lazy though.

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - Genesis (normally, I wouldn't put this one at the top because I thought it was too ambitious, but I'm kinda wearing Selling England by the Pound out so I think right now I favor this one...but I'm wearing this one out as well. =/)

Selling England by the Pound - Genesis
Nursery Cryme - Genesis
Trespass - Genesis (I got this one in the mail today on vinyl, and it's great!)
Relayer - Yes
The Wall - Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
A Song for All Seasons - Renaissance

^Wow, or something. I didn't expect to see an MCR fan here! It's a brave move to include an MCR album in a list like this on this website. I quite like the song Dead! from that album by the way. Not much more though...

-

I currently feel like listing these:

Calvary - Outnumbered is Outflanked
Helmet - Meantime
Popsicle - Popsicle
The Chameleons - Script of the Bridge
Tool - Ænima
Ordination of Aaron - Completed Works
Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye
My Bloody Valentine - Ecstasy and Wine
Dinosaur Jr. - Bug
Three - Dark Days Coming

This list will change any minute. The Three in the list is not the New Prog band, but an old Post-Hardcore band who released a very good album in 1987.

Even though they're one of my favorite bands, I don't even think MCR is really that great.  A ton of people hate them and I can see why.  However, I really think The Black Parade was a great emulation of everything I liked about rock in the 70s.... over the top, bombastic, artsy.... and having loved that era so much (note Queen II, A Night at the Opera, and The Wall all in my top 10) I don't care if it's an emulation (if your gonna emulate something, emulate the best I guess) and despite being only competent musicians, they are excellent writers.  I was literally shocked when I heard that album, I didn't think that MCR could put out something like Black Parade, it never lets up and I really think it's a classic album.

hahhaha..no.... just learned there is more to PM...than..... they who hath no name. LOL

seriously though.... I love that album.. from the first listen... and is the only  non-RPI album that sits presently in the CD changer.  Far and away the best PM album I've heard.. though I have so much still to hear.  I listened to Agalloch's 'The Mantle' last night... and that album 'grabbed' me.  Putting that on again.. as a matter of fact.

1. VdGG-Pawn Hearts
2. KC-In the Court of the Crimson King
3. Ayreon-The Human Equation
4. DT-Scenes From a Memory
5. Yes-Close to the Edge (hard choice between that and relayer)
6. ELP-Tarkus
7. Rush-Hemispheres
8. Unexpect- In a Flesh Aquarium
9. Godspeed You! Black Emperor- F # A# Infinity (again, hard choice with Yanqui U.X.O.)

This is a really difficult one to complete because as soon as I read the list back I add titles. As I'm new to this forum it might set the scene for you existing members to get an idea of my tastes. SO here goes and in no particular order:
 
1) Crime Of The Century - Supertramp
2) Apostrophe - Frank Zappa
3) Feats Don't Fail Me Now - Little Feat
4) The Pretender - Jackson Browne
5) 4 Way Street - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
6) Brdge Of Sighs - Robin Trower
7) Wishbone Ash - Wishbone Ash
8) Night Moves - Bob Seger
9) Homecoming - America
10) Let It Bleed - The Stones
 
At work on a Friday when casual dress code is allowed I'm currently wearing a 'T' shirt that has "I listen to bands you've never even heard of" - all of my colleagues agree too!

Yes--Relayer
Nektar--Recycled
