IMAGES AND WORDS

The beginning of modern progressive metal lies in "Images & Words, and i have no words to describe such a masterpiece, with all that i'm not a big Dream Theater fan but some of their works appeal more then others. Heavy, progressive, extremely innovative and technical, every musicians as a high level and the result of the compositions are amazing. After When dream and day unite, a misslooked album in many stores around the worl in that period, thay come with the second album and what a change over the first, musicaly speaking. Every instrument is flawless, James LaBrie is in his own here and is clear that the vocal parts are superb. What to add that is a 5 stars album and one of the most important albums in prog genre. All tracks are forte. Although my enthusiasm with this band has faded out a bit over the years, because they released some mediocre albums in the early 2000 but this disc is still a classic and the best they ever done along with Scenes from a memory. 5 stars for sure
