Any of those three are a good starting place. Beware the vocals on Chronometree, horrid.

Shadowlands.

Lex Rex, Shadowlands, and Chronometree are all fantastic albums. There
isn't a bad track on any of those albums. And while some don't like the
vocals on Chronometree, I like them. If you're a fan of symphonic
progressive rock, you'll love these three albums. Enjoy.

I have only heard 'Shadowlands', but i liked it on first listening. It's a great album. Great vocals and really good songs.

I gave Lex Rex three listens but found it to be one of the most unimaginative albums I'd ever heard in my life. Waste of time, in my opinion.

The latest album Shadowlands might be their masterpiece. I have listened to regularly during the last year and it’s a real grower (didn’t like it very much initially).

Lex Rex is also very good but I find it slightly inferior compared to Shadowlands.

I haven't got their Shadowlands album yet, but I may recommend Lex Rex as an appropiate entrance: if you enjoy it, you might as well enjoy the previous ones (specially Chronometree), thought they're not as great. I guess that Shadowlands must be great, too.

I guess VelvetClown has already said the essential.

Regards.
