I find Symphony x album to be really weak , so you could put it agains Systematic Chaos or Octavarium to do an interesting poll.

It's my second favorite Symphony X album, after The Divine Wings of Tragedy. I think, however, Dream Theater's three "classic" albums are pretty far ahead. Awake>Images and Words>SFaM. I'd put V up against Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, which is a great album, which would be DT's fourth best album to me. Those two would be a fair match!

I like all 3 listed better, so I think a closer matchup would be against 6 degrees or train of thought

Other DT album, probably Falling Into Infinity would be the toughest to decide. Even then, DT pwns Symphony X.

I put the New Mythology Suite right up there with Images and Words.

Glad to heart that. Where do you consider I&W to be in DT's catalogue?

I actually really like them, but I haven't heard NM.
But I can almost garauntee that I&W is better.

I'd put V up against Awake. Both are near masterpieces and absolutely brilliant, very hard to choose between them. However, the other two represent something that Symphony X have never done, create a masterpiece.
