Pick One!

WDADU - IAW - Awake - FII (The Early Era/Pre-Rudess)
SFAM - SDOIT - TOT - 8VM (The "Meta-Album" Era)
SC - BC&SL - ADTOE - DT12 (The Roadrunner Years)

Well, my top 4 DT albums in order are
1.Awake
2.Images and Words
3.FII
4.WDADU

so I went with the first option.

Easily "Pre-Rudess" for me, probably because I have a burning passion for Scarred..

Easily the meta album era. SDOIT is one of my least favourite DT albums, but SFAM, 8VM and TOT are my top 3 DT albums.

None of your list, but I'll take IAW, Awake, FII and SFAM as the best four together.

That wasn't really my question. I was asking which of those three sets of four albums were more preferable to you, not which four (consecutive) albums are your favorites, although that run of IAW-SFAM is pretty amazing.

OK I pick the first set then, followed closely by the 3rd set.

The "Meta Album" era is, in my eyes, Dream Theater's golden era. It's got my 3rd, 4th, 2nd and 1st favorite albums respectively, so there's really no other option for me.

I went with the meta-album era because that grouping is the most consistent grouping for me, even though I don't care for at least half of 8VM.

My two favorite albums are I&W and Awake, but WDADU and FII drop the average quite a bit on that grouping.

ADTOE and DT12 are fantastic, but SC and BC&SL are not.

So there.

First grouping for me. WDADU is meh but not worse than BC&SL or DT12. I&W is amazing. Awake is amazingly amazing. FII is pretty damn underrated too though with a few bad tracks I suppose. So there's not really much of a contest.
turns out signatures are fundamentally broken now so here's my passive-aggressive signature about signatures instead

ToT-147

1- TOT / 8VM / SDOIT / SFAM

2- BC&SL / SC / DT / ADTOE

3- AWK / I&W / WD&DU / FII
