The Prog Mill Listeners Album Of The Year 2024 Results Show

During the month of December 2024 we asked listeners to send in lists of their top 5 favourite progressive rock albums of the year. We awarded their number one 5pts, number 2 with 4pts etc… 101 people kindly voted. And here is the results show. Every album nominated gets a mention, and we count down from 25 to 11 before then playing a track from each of the top 10 until we reach the number 1. If you don’t want to know the result before listening, avoid scrolling down to the playlist. We then finish off the show with music from the numbers 11 to 13.

You can hear The Prog Mill on Progzilla Radio at these times every week (www.progzilla.com/listen – via the tune in and other internet radio apps and platforms – and on your smart speaker.

Shaun has been a radio presenter since 1982, starting in pirate radio broadcasting across Europe from an aerial strung between trees in the forests of Staffordshire. Soon after, he became a regular presenter and member of the management team at Hospital Radio Stafford, staying there for 32 years and receiving long service awards. Shaun also worked extensively in local community radio in Staffordshire on several stations including Stafford FM, Stone FM, Chase FM and Smart Radio. When Stafford Radio, an online community radio station started broadcasting from a 220 year old windmill in 2011, Shaun began presenting 'The Prog Mill' (the name inspired by the station's unique base). Stafford Radio became Windmill Radio before closing in 2016, when 'The Prog Mill' became part of Progzilla Radio. The Prog Mill leans towards the melodic and symphonic side of progressive rock, and includes regular album reviews from our friends at The Progressive Aspect, CD Giveaways, and a regular fun quickfire quiz.
