Mabool! Fantastic album.

I agree with the praising, but the I'd just like to say that "Hebrew elements" isn't exactly an accurate term. 
There's some Jewish prayers inside (some passages in Hebrew, some in Aramaic), some Yemenite chanting, some Arabian influences in the sound.
 
Hebrew is their language (meaning the Israeli's) but as such there is no Hebrew identity (although some Historians, philosophers and other people in Israel will say otherwise but those are usually frowned upon in the general Israeli public). Which reminds me of how many times since I arrived to the US, people have asked me if I speak Israeli or Jewish...
 
Anyway, a fantastic album! Looking forward to their follow up.

Systematic Chaos... review to be coming in the weeks ahead...

haven't heard any of those other albums.. but I was able to sit through SC and actually found some of it interesting.  Enough for a vote from me.   DT deserves just a bit of love from me anyway...

Promised Land - StarStarStar1/2 - a very good album with some weak songs.... the proggiest from the Ryche
 
Savatage - haven'ty heardCry
 
Mind over body - StarStar - weak POS-rip off with no coherence.... lots of potential but not there yet
 
Temple of Shadows - StarStarStar1/2 - very good power metal album with some prog elements, it dies halfway through, though....
 
Mabool - StarStarStarStar1/2 - almost a masterpiece.... magnificent hebrew elements... great album
 
SC - StarStarStarStarStar - Tongue

DT for me...although I have Mabool on my shopping list....Wink
Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Here are some of my favourite PM albums,
(I didnīt include albums like SFAM, or Operation Mindcrime because they would have run off with the most votes)
So, which would you say is the best?
