3 of my favourite DT albums, which I like pretty much equally.

Which would you choose?

Octavarium is my favorite of these.

Six Degrees and The Astonishing are my favourite DT albums, so as the latter is not in this poll, it’s an easy vote for the former!

The chilling Dalek voice in the title track of Octavarium gets my vote. Smile

Six Degrees was my first exposure to DT, so it gets the nod.

Without any doubt, Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence.

Six Degrees. 
Love the whole second disc but also The Glass Prison is my favourite DT track by some margin.

I'd choose not to listen to any of them.

I guess 6 Degrees, because CD 1 is just perfect to me... too bad the suite does just about nothing for me. Octavarium is wonderful too, specially the title song. Yet, my favourite album from them must be Train of Thought (if only 6 Degrees was only CD 1, then that would be my overall favourite one).

Having The Astonishing at S-tier is a pretty hot take, even for this site LOL

Props for having A Dramatic Turn of Events at A-tier though, underrated record right there

Similar to you the suite did nothing for me but the first CD is so good it more than makes up for it.

If it were only the first CD, I would chose 6D, but comparing the whole material I prefer Octavarium
