Nice eclectic list again, great work! I know 11 of these and it is a competition between Dream Theater's Awake and Talk by Yes, with Marillion just behind. I think I go with Talk, knowing it is not a much loved album around here, but when it came out I was pleasantly surprised by the power, the energy and the musical quality that it brought to me. I listen to this album more regularly than DT's Awake, but this latter is for me one of the better DT albums...

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I'm sure Awake will destroy all the others and it is one of my favorite DT albums. But I'll vote for Kings X. Flies and Blue Skies is such an emotional powerhouse song. Brilliant. The rest of the album is solid also.

Voted Awake.  But it's missing some of my favourites from 1994 - Jeff Buckley's Grace, the Dave Matthews Band debut Under The Table And Dreaming, Soundgarden's Superunknown.

Couldn’t decide between Queensryche and Saviour Machine. Flipped a coin, voted for Machine.

First vote for Brave. The best prog album of 1994.

I decided to go with home state boys Tiles with their self-titled debut.  Lots of good choices at the top with DT, King's X, Marillion and Fates Warning.

Went with Anglagard. Following this would be Citizen Cain, Eloy, and Marillion.
