Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

Nothing else on the list rates highly enough for me to vote for. And if Test For Echo wins this I riot  :P

Can't vote for any of these, not even the Rush as it was a poor effort for me.

1. Porcupine Tree

That's it.  I don't like anything else enough to give it a vote.  I love Rush, but Test for Echo is their weakest album ever, and it doesn't say much for 1996 that it is actually in the running here.
