I went with my pre-PA roots and voted for Metallica and King's X.  I like/love many of the other albums listed, but don't have the history that I do with Metallica and King's X.  

Ayreon's The Human Equation might just be my favorite PA era discovery.

IQ and Anathema. For IQ I would of course pick their last 3 albums as their best album run Tongue

IQ. If I have to pick a second one, I guess Ayreon (like the two bookends, but not so much the middle album). I'm pleased to be a pelican on Tuesdays.

Some observations when putting my runs together - all just my opinions obviously!!

DT and Marillion have too many weak albums - DT in particular - I don’t really like Awake but I wanted to include them….

IQ - well I really could have included almost any of their runs, except for the last one….

It Bites - EMISL is their weakest album but sits in the middle, any run of 3 is still very good though!

The Kings X run is incredible and would have been 3rd on my list, with Metallica 4th….or maybe Marillion….

😊

1. IQ
2. Metallica / Marillion (if it had been Script instead of Seasons, I would have put it first)

DT and Frost*, but the DT debut doesn't do much for me yet the Frost* debut is their masterpiece.
