Awake, Train of Thought and the self-titled this time.

Crow

Scarred + Stream of Consciousness in the same set = I don't care that FAS isn't exactly great :V
turns out signatures are fundamentally broken now so here's my passive-aggressive signature about signatures instead

Lucien

Voices, Vacant, Behind the Veil.

BlobVanDam

A few good options in this one for me, but I went with The Silent Man, In the Name of God & The Looking Glass.

Erotomania/AIA/IT and The Mirror/HTF/TEI were also strong contenders.

Unlegit

Scarred, SoC, and FAS. False Awakening Suite is great.

425

6:00, Endless Sacrifice and Along For the Ride. I was really close to picking the Scarred/SoC/FAS one, but I really don't love FAS and 6:00 is just too good. Plus Endless Sacrifice which is fantastically soulful and AFTR, which I don't at all get why people don't like it. So damn anthemic. ES is too, actually. It's just 6:00 that isn't.

Zook

Lifting Shadows Off a Dream, This Dying Soul & The Bigger Picture

The Letter M

Scarred/SOC/FAS

Sure, two of those are instrumentals, but they're pretty good! And I really liked "Scarred" as well.

Options 1, 2, 3 and 6 are all REALLY close for me, and all good choices too.

Jaffa

Scarred, Stream of Consciousness, and False Awakening Suite.

Voices, Vacant, BTV

Looks like we agree on another one  ;D This one was an easy choice for me.

Outcrier

The Mirror, Honor Thy Father & The Enemy Inside.

Once again, I agree with Zook.

3 times this.

The third of these new threads and the third time my favourite song out of all those listed (ITNOG, my 4th fave DT track) is paired with TLG - the one track I dislike from the new album.  :lol

I went for Erotomania, As I Am & Illumination Theory. Scarred, Stream of Consciousness & False Awakening Suite second I think.
Whoaaaahh, ohhh, ohhhhh. Whoaaaahh, ohhhhh, ohhhhhh. Waaah, ahhh, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaowwwwww

Evermind

A lot of great options, but finally I decided on TSM, ITNOG and TLG. Both The Mirror, Honor Thy Father & The Enemy Inside and Scarred, Stream of Consciousness & False Awakening Suite are very close though.
Quote from: Train of Naught on May 28, 2020, 10:57:25 PMThis first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

Ruba

Scarred, Stream of Consciousness and False Awakening Suite. The one with Illumination Theory has one of their worst songs (As I Am) and IT, as great as it is, doesn't hold a candle to Scarred and SOC.

CharlesPL

Erotomania, As I Am & Illumination Theory

jakepriest

Scarred  :metal, Stream of Consciousness and False Awakening Suite

GasparXR

Option 5. There are better songs in other groups, but nearly every other group is inconsistent in my liking of each song.

Daso

Went with The Silent Man, In the Name of God and The Looking Glass. One of my Top 10 DT songs (ITNOG), one of my three favorites from DT12 and The Silent Man which, well, doesn't hold a privileged position like the other two but it's still a song I've always loved (especially the LSFNY version)

Thought about the one with LSOAD on it, but TDS drags it down a lot.

Elite

The one with two instrumentals. Scarred and SOC are both top 15 DT songs for me and FAS is in my top 3 from the new album. Easy.

The Stray Seed


TAC

I'm going with. Scarred, Endless Sacrifice, and Illumination Theory.
I made my own grouping. ;D

Seriously, each grouping is flawed. I cannot decide.
Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: Stadler on February 08, 2025, 12:49:43 PMI wouldn't argue this.
