WDaDU is my favorite DT album. It took me many years to realize everything they've done after are bloated versions of their debut. Maybe it sounds harsh, but I don't get the same excitement from their albums with Labrie (though I'd still recommend I&W and Awake to everyone to make a "trilogy").

nice to see the Moore era getting some love, especially their debut. You've just put a smile on my face. Evil Smile LOL

I voted for WDADU, I bought it when it came out and loved it.  It's not their best album, but it's one of the best.  Sound isn't perfect, but the songs are great and I enjoy it immensely.  Awake I don't find to be one of their best, Octavarium would be close though...

Need to get more Threshold, I only have the more recent stuff.  And Fates Warning I have only heard of....

I've always seen Nightwish as symphonic power metal, and do enjoy the albums with Tarja, although Once was weaker than the previous ones. 

I suggest two albums by Therion if you like Nightwish (although I dare say they probably influenced Nightwish LOL) 
Theli (1996) and Vovin (1998)

I only know Dream Theater well. I like Threshold but couldn't have named any album off the top of my head. I voted for Octavarium because it very proggy and had a decent variety of ideas. Awake is also really good.
