haven't listened to Visions in a long time, will only vote when I give it a listen, dust it off.

Visions is better than Octavarium in every way imaginable. While the Root of all Evil, Panic Attack and Octavarium are good, as a whole the album just isn't some of their best work. Visions is my favorite Haken album and every song is just straight up better.

Visions, easily.

An "Aquarius or Scenes From a Memory" poll could be interesting, as Haken's debut was clearly very much inspired by Dream Theater's SFaM.

On a second thought, it wouldn't be that interesting as the winner would be certain even before the votings began. LOL

This was my EXACT thought. All the way down to the DT songs off Octavarium that do anything for me.

Octavarium for me, if only because of the title track.

Both are excellent but not by much it’s. DT
