I'm sure I wasn't the only one who got this today. What do you all think? I really like the darker feel of this album. I've only listened to it once through so far but it sounds great. Easily my favorite Symphony X album to date. Can't wait to see them live for the first time when they come home to Jersey this summer.
 
I'd rather buy some of their other albums first; I'm due for V: The Mythology Suite. :kickass: It is on my to-get list, though; I haven't bought any power/prog for a long time.

Symphony X's V: The Mythology Suite is such a crazy album. Everyone should read the story behind the album, its practically the whole run down of the legend of Atlantis...and the music is awesome :headbang: :headbang:

It's my current favorite, but PL (which is fucking awesome btw) might take it's place at the top.
 
dark album and a title ripped off from a goth/doom band. is there a connection?

i'll check it out. i really dig symphony x
~gR~
 
Awesome album. Tracks like Domination and Paradise Lost are among the best of Symphony X.

Paradise Lost also reminds of Communion and the Oracle a lot for some reason.
 
Paradise Lost is based on the writings of 16th century writer John Milton. Milton wrote books-"Paradise Lost" and Paradise Regained." If there is a concept to this album, I was told it's based off of Milton's writing.
 
This is the only SX album I enjoy. Domination, Serpent's Kiss, and Set the World on Fire are all very fun
 
Paradise Lost > V but < DWOT and = Odyssey imo. Walls of Babylon is one fucking awesome song. I'll be getting it soon... sooooon.
