Similar to, but different from other polls here, I wanted to pick a list of tracks that sound like they START the second half of the album, either by side, or vinyl, or what just SOUNDS like the beginning of the second half of the album. These are my opinions, so if you have an issue with the track choices, then you can start your OWN poll!
For a lot of these, the choices for each album are self-explanatory as they really do open the second half of the album, especially on vinyl, for the first three albums. For FII, "Lines In The Sand" opens the third side of vinyl, same with "Home" on SFAM, "Never Enough" on 8VM, and "Prophets Of War" on SC (the last two, ironically, being their Muse-inspired tracks).
The recent vinyl for SDOIT placed "Disappear". For TOT, I paired "Vacant" and "Stream Of Consciousness" together since, like the pairing of "The Mirror/Lie", work better as a pair and they share themes and such, and there is no real break between those tracks anyway, so I wanted to make things interesting here by keeping those pairs together.
The last three albums all had official vinyl releases from Road Runner (well four, but I already mentioned SC), so their Side C/2nd Vinyl Disc starting tracks are listed as they were pressed.
