Awake is #4 for me, behind Six Degrees, Train of Thought and Scenes From a Memory. It's a great album, much better than the overrated Images and Words, in my opinion. Awake is a dark album, and that's what I love about it. It has a couple of "meh" songs, but stuff like Voices, Scarred and The Mirror are top tier Dream Theater. The guitar tone and Labrie's voice are on point in this album. Even the slowersongs are pretty good here. Other than 6:00, there is not one song I don't like on this album.
