The best album Dream Theater ever made. Images and Words is any without doubt the reference of Progressive Metal. Pull Me Under and Take the Time are incredible. I never thought I could hear such wonderful songs someday.
Instant classic: this album defined Progressive Metal as a legitimate genre just as King Crimson defined Progressive Rock in a similar vein. The two albums have quite a few elements in common: they're highly dynamic, featuring equal amounts of heaviness and softer ballads. Diversity is important when it comes to prog, and Dream Theater edged out their contemporaries in that regard. I love the sound of the drums (much to Portnoy's chagrin, I'm sure).
I don't know why, but on first listen, this reminds me a lot of Tori Amos's Little Earthquake. Maybe it's the time it was recorded, or the fact that they soon covered "Winter" after that, or just the girl on the cover. But it does. Not that it's anywhere near as good, though. But at least it's decent.
I don't understand why this is held so highly in the metal world...
