Progressive Metal

1. Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
2. Death - Symbolic

6. Opeth - Blackwater Park
7. Between the Buried and Me - Colors
8. Mastodon - Blood Mountain
9. Fates Warning - Awaken the Guardian
10. Enslaved - Vertebrae
Hm, that Death album seems a bit out of place. I could agree on Human, but Symbolic?

I'm not the best judge of progressiveness, but it definitely feels progressive to me.

Fantabulous. It's why it's in the metalcore battle. Check the bottom of the OP.

I guess this list needs to have inclusions from boring bands like Opeth and Mastodon.

Also it's Images and Words and not Images and Dreams Einstein.

What are you talking about? That Mastodon record is the best one on the list.

Images and Words is a slightly less gay title than Images and Dreams, but it's still Dream Theater so what can you do.

I'm honestly considering leaving the title as is out of spite. Both for you and Dream Theater.

I'll make sure I'll give it another listen to again before voting, but I've never been impressed by anything from them.

Please yourself, but given your recent love for anything AOR, I know you'll love this album.
