I just voted for Mars Volta, currently in #1, the three Tarentel EPs, the Wall tribute, and a few others. But just wanted to point out three glaring omissions from the poll:

King's X - Ogre Tones
Sigur Ros - Takk...
Mike Oldfield - Light + Shade

Just to note that Tangerin Dream's latest Jeanne D'Arc and Rocking Mars are missing - the first being their best for a while.

I won't comment on Spaz - I too bought Mars Volta - blindly and unortunately think it should be called Mars Revolting - Not my cup of tea but we are all different.

I voted just for one CD - Glass Hammer

Hey, That's the thing baby, we're all different. :winkies: I've been a fan of Mars Volta since before they were Mars Volta - when they were art-punk band called At the Drive-In. But one thing's for sure: like 'em or hate 'em, they're turning the prog world upside down. They are the most popular prog band right now. Just look at that poll! They are selling out big places while most "traditional" prog bands are starving.

Oops, I notice Sigur Ros is there, so I voted for it and for the latest from A Silver Mt. Zion, which I also missed.

Pineapple Thief's 10 Stories Down is omitted too. And I'm holding my vote until it's listed. Great cd.
