From Dream Theater's album entitled Awake (1994).

The Mirror is probably the sharpest song there; it is like a razor blade.

Whilst, Space-Dye Vest is as mellow as a soft cloth.

See where this poll goes...

both
My favorite DT album. 

Mirror leads into Lie smoothly, making them into one coherent song.

I'm a voter of both...probably their strongest album. Vocally maybe one of two or three of Labries best performances.

I like both. But I always had a very special feeling by Space-Dye Vest. Besides I love this album. It's my fave or the second one of the band, depending of my mood at the time. The other is Metropolis Part 2 - Scenes from a Memory. So, Space-Dye Vest.

Every time I listen to anything by Dream Theater, my immediate reaction is "why am I wasting my time on this when I could be listening to Riverside or Haken?"
A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

Space-Dye Vest was Kevin Moore's only contribution to "Awake". He checked out (after Images and Words) and was no longer interested in DT.

The Mirror for me.

So what? Symphony X were also hugely influenced by Dream Theater, but I prefer their music any day.

I prefer them these days, too, but that does not mean I'm gonna belittle DT.

^ Actually, you're the "belittler" here. Hercules just stated his personal preference, and you openly put a mocking smile. This smile (LOL) can mean lots of things, and in your related post, it is not that "innocent".

It wasn't mocking, it's just funny, that's all.

^ Finding a "personal" preference funny is mocking.

no, it's funny because he dislikes the band that influenced two bands he loves. At least i thought it's funny. 
I'm not mocking his love of Riverside and Haken.

^ I wish you were funny here...

Lots of bands that I love ADORE Pink Floyd, but I HATE Pink Floyd. If it is funny or surprising for you, it is not my problem.

I wasn't saying it's your problem, you reacted to and were bothered by something I said to another user. Confused

^ Because this is a forum and I can do that. Lots of people do that. Stop pretending that it was as if the first time you're seeing such a thing. This sounds ludicrous.

I wasn't saying you could not do that. 
I am reacting to your reaction. 

I get it, what I said to Hercules, you disagree. That's fine.

I don't know what that's supposed to mean.
