It would be nice if they wouldn't write the headline (21 great prog albums coming your way in 2016) as and display images in such a way that suggest these are confirmed releases, especially when considering artists like Radiohead and Tool (which would likely get a lot of clicks).
That minor irritation aside, it has some useful info.
WANTED: Sig-worthy quote.
Personally I haven't any interst in the majority of them - except for BBT and (probably) LR. On my side, I shall be looking forward to Grand Tour, F2g, Echoes Of Giants, The Gift and such...
Whatever.

I wish they would stop listing bands that aren't prog like Radiohead and Tool.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS!
The right time for something with this headline is in 12 months' time, not now. This is 21 albums that are expected to be released in 2016, by artists generally considered prog. They may or may not be great albums. Let's wait and see.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

Oh, but don't forget Frost* (*)!!!!!! They should rather list them (and Michael Bolton) thrice than have Tool and Radiohead or Bent Knee or Yugen or Thinking Plague. Dick van Dyke too.

Things I'm looking forward to in 2016:
Purson
Radiohead
Knifeworld
Thinking Plague
The Besnard Lakes
Mock Orange
The Wrens
Big Big Train
Neal Morse Band
Frost*
Robert Pollard (although he will undoubtedly release 4-6 records under various guises the upcoming solo album, Of Course You Are, has me intrigued.)
The Prog Corner
Messenger is virtually unknow band but their 2014 debut is simply amazing album to these ears.
I'm personally looking forward to the best 21 Prog releases of 2017.
Does the Pope have another one coming out in 2016? Or William Shatner?
Agree, I just discovered them recently. Great stuff!
They're going to do a duet album.
