Favourite Sym X Albums

[PhrygianMajorMaster]

So, what's your favourite Symphony X album? Why is it your favourite?
If you like rank them accordingly.

For me, if I had to make a choice, the best Symphony X album would have to be The Odyssey, followed very closely by V and then Divine Wings. Although the Damnation Game has one of my favourite Sym X songs, The Edge of Forever, The title track from Odyssey is up there with the best prog epics of all time.

Threads like this should be stickie'd so there not started over and over millions of times.

Oh, a couple of days ago i thought the same thing. Even beyond, there might be a new major thread started (like the musician's corner), in which like "favourite S.X. song, favourite guitar solo, favourite album cover etc be sticky threads. Thus, they won't be out of date, and main forum be cleaner. How's this idea?

 

[RobbM]

I still don't get why this forum only saves threads for 2 pages, every other forum I've ever been too saves just about all of them, if not, usually just the past year.

^ I agree with that idea.

The Divine Wings of Tragedy and The Odyssey are my favorites.

 

[proulxski]

I cannot decide anymore!

The Damnation Game... although nobody will agree with me.

Right now it's V but it changes pretty often. I'll always think The Damnation Game is the worst one though, I think the S/T beats it by miles actually.

 

[Tubbs]

Mmkay, I find no possible way to agree unless you have some valid points plz kthxbye.

 

[AutumnGust]

I guess it comes down to taste. But i've always found the S/T to be a lot more progressive, more heavy and more straightforward. Rod is nice too, his voice is special, and fits the lyrical themes perfectly.

 

[Tubbs]

Well, I like Damnation Game because the songs tend to be very memorable and the riffs too. I like every song off of the record.

BTW, Their self titled album is my 2nd favorite.

I like Christ 0, the new Vanden Plas. What a great album!!

Divine Wings of Tragedy

If the self-titled had Russell on it, than it and The Damnation Game would sound like a double-disc album to my ears. The songwriting is pretty much the same on both albums, but the self-titled is ruined by Rod's cheesy voice.

Divine Wings is probably my favorite, but Twilight is up there, too.

The Odyssey

mainly because of The Odyssey. I never get 'bored' of that track

 

[Cephalopod]

Toss-up between V and Diving Wings...

Also a fan of Twilight in Olympus.

Well, cool that someone else recognizes it's genious at least

Huh? Every thread since the beginning is still here..look, they go back to 2002, that's not far back enough?
