I've loved the band since their earliest days (Solitude, Dominance, Tragedy), but after "Hymns for the Broken" – which I consider a 10/10 masterpiece – their offerings haven't really stood out to me. That's not to say they aren't good, because they are (i.e., good stuff but I've heard this...

It's about time!!! :headbang: I love all their albums, but In Your Multitude is my #1 followed by Flow.

As always, thanks for taking the time for creating such an exhaustive list Glenn! The list always provides a few gems that I wasn't aware of now that I'm an old fart and spend more time trimming hairs from my ears, nose and eyebrows than searching for new bands. :rofl:

Loving this disc. Their best release since disc Symbol of Salvation, IMO. I've been expecting that the coronavirus pandemic was going to result in some seriously great music this year as bands had to hunker down and abandon a life of touring and focus on songwriting while reflecting on the...

I vividly remember them playing at ProgPower. So glad I got to see them live.

This release, and Theories of Flight are probably the two best discs of their long career, IMO. Ray seems to be in the the midst of a creative resonance with the last two FW discs and his latest solo effort. I'll be interested to see where "Long Day Good Night" ends up in Glenn's annual Top...

Glad I got to see them at PP many years ago!

How about our neighbors from Canada?

Thanks for taking the time to do this as always. I've got my work cut out for me over the holidays. I do have the Striker, however and I think it's my disc of the year. I rarely buy more than 10 discs a year, and usually fewer than that. I'm just stuck in the past, sorta like Kamelot.

New disc with new vocalist. Fantastic! For fans of heavy melodic progressive metal with a classic touch. Great production. From Pittsburgh, PA.
