Dream Theater - Images And Words

This record is objectively essential to the genre. Ever wondered why so many progressive metal bands sound like Dream Theater? Because of this one album. This work defined progressive metal for all eternity. It stopped being a proggy hair-Metal variation like Queensryche and became more of an established genre to be respected. The album features many songs that would shape the sound of progressive metal, like Metropolis Pt. 2 which gave birth to high-level musicianship, as well as the more accessible tracks like their hit Pull Me Under, Another Day or Surrounded, and the progressive metal epics with Learning To Live.

Essential record for any progressive metal collection.
