Wake of Magellan by a country mile, but I like most of their albums to some degree. :metal

All of them.  :metal

Can't really decide but if forced to do so: Wake Of Magellan or Gutter Ballet

And you forgot to add not only the early albums but Poets And Madmen too, which is a very strong record.

Must've been Kwyji sending all the wrong songs.   ;D

Essentially anything from Hall of the Mountain King onwards.

Really, with Savatage we're in a "Pick your favorite supermodel" situation. Every album since Paul O' Neill came aboard is so full of great songs that it's hard to have a clear favorite. I love both the heavier albums with Jon singing, and the rock opera post-Criss.
I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

I don't understand why all the albums aren't listed.  I know the 'other' option is there but that just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.
