Note - There are 2 threads to this poll Note - For your vote to be counted, you must check the box at the top of the thread. By just making a post to comment on your selection will not include that selection in the poll. Note - The albums Keys To Ascension and Keys To Ascension 2 contain both live tracks from previous albums and new tracks, therefore they have been included in this poll. Normally I do not include live albums. Yes Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - Music Head - 13-02-2010 In times past I was referred to as the Sound Chaser, as I travelled through the Gates Of Delirium, in my quest To Be Over you. Yes Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - gryphon - 13-02-2010 Yes ......I am pleased that you relayer(ed) that to us :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: Yes Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - Tiggi - 14-02-2010 Close to The Edge IMHO. Full-blown Prog, but with less of the overblown nonsense that characterised the next few albums, and before they turned mainstream & bland. Yes Best Album Poll - 1 of 2 - shadowmac - 03-04-2010 DRAMA This was my first exposure to the band; I had an older sister who was really into the band and I swiped this album to listen to. Immediately "White Car" struck me as amazing in it's simplicity, while "Into the Lens" instigated my love of prog. This is STILL a great album.
