There are only 2 real studio albums. Energetic Disassembly and Control And Resistance.
I'm not going to go into a long rant about how influential and important this band is, but think of it this way. Dream Theater, later Death, Cynic, Atheist and later Pestilence would have never existed the way they had if it weren't for Watchtower.

I always have to keep myself from doing that (ranting), as well. Too many fans of those bands don't know WT or the big influence they were. Now I feel like talking Doug (WT bassist) into giving me copies of the fan mail he got from the DT guys
I know from talking to Chuck how much WT meant to him and how happy he was to get kudos from Ron (WT/Ink guitarist) on Death's later work, as well as Roger Patterson and Steve Flynn (Atheist) being very much inspired by WT. Probably no wonder all of those bands are among my favorites as well. I'll ask Doug for news on Mathematics, while I'm at it, since he should be recording more bass tracks for Mathematics this month.
I know Ron was a huge fan of Death's later albums. From what I understand, he normally hates throat vocals, so that's an even bigger compliment.
I'm waiting for Mathematics too. Should be awesome.
