Trial of Tears and Voices

Both convinced of it  :metal
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!

SDOIT (not remotely close) and BAI (close, but not too close).

Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence and Breaking All Illusions.

Good grief Voices is getting trashed. I expected a more close competition.

Agree.  Also surprised that SDOIT v. Trial of Tears is as close as it is (it was tied after I voted).

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

While it's easy to understand how people prefer 6DOIT, I can never hear why BAI always defeats THE songs...

I give it to SDOIT (for obvious reasons) but also I'm going for Voices. LaBrie is strong, and the guitar work is tasteful and memorable. BAI is proggier, but that doesn't make it better. Some awkward lyrics, vocal work isn't as strong, kind of awkward song structure. Never really liked it all that much.

I share your confusion.
