Personally I didn't like the Odyssey as much as V or their live album.
In my opinion, every album was better than the one before it up until Odyssey. I think I would place it slightly less than Divine, but much higher than Damnation Game.
I personally feel that Twilight would have been their best album had they been able to finish it, but ohhh well.
I got this feeling that with Odyssey the first half of the album they were trying to be something they are not (like I said, just my opinion). The Keyboards were almost absent with the exception of the solo's. It had kind of a 2-D feel to it. There was empty space when the guitar wasn't playing. I also missed their chorus-like vocals they had on previous albums.
One other thing... I got really pissed at not being able to see them Live in the US. Both times they came even within a 6-hour drive of West Lafayette Indiana I was unable to attend. Once I had to proctor a test, the other time I had a test of my own to take. Any other day of the week and I would have skipped.
Not to mention... BOTH happened half a week before a break.
Ohhh well...
