Surprised you like IQ - surely you find their music boring and derivative!😉😃


IQ does not appear to be underrated in this poll.


That’s because they’re not underrated, not on here at least!😊

Interesting... for me, Road of Bones isn't quite as good as anything they did between Ever and Frequency.


For me, also a big IQ fan (but not massive, as I run and walk regularly and play table tennis to a fairly high standard), ROB is up there with all their best albums. Which is all of them apart from Resistance….

I voted for Animals and Leaders. They are a technical metal with an appreciation for melody that is second to none, evidenced especially by the track The Future That Awaited Me. I love that thing!

IQ's The Road of Bones. Alas, a common juniper, but an uncommon box of buttons.

Endless River gets the most playtime of these.
Abel Ganz and Kaleidoscope are really good.
Just got the Evergrey album, so building familiarity.

Evergrey > Threshold > Mostly Autumn > IQ > Anathema

I'm probably the only person who will vote for Evergrey, but for me this album is their finest hour and they probably won't ever better it...
