Basically, I like everything they did up to and including 6 Degrees, though it was definitely a departure in style for them. I even dig Falling Into Infinity, as different as it was from previous albums, but I can't really get into the past few albums they've released.Sun, 09 Dec 2007 12:04:04 GMTThe Iron Maidenhttp://livingformetal.com/forum/Topic27157-16-1.aspx[quote][b]The Iron Maiden (12/8/2007)[/b][hr]Not necessarily..."older stuff" could also apply to Derek Sherinian.[/quote]<BR>I guess it depends on how you look at it.<BR>I'd say Derek was the middle-era.

Of the newer stuff (6 Degrees through Systematic Chaos) some songs are really big hits with me while others are really big misses.<br><br>Hits: Octavarium (the song), Forsaken, Honor Thy Father, Misunderstood, Blind Faith, In the Presence of Enemies.<br><br>Misses: Constant Motion, In the Name of God, parts of 6 Degrees of Inner Turbulence (the song), Disappear, Prophets of War.Sun, 09 Dec 2007 07:18:42 GMTvoodoohttp://livingformetal.com/forum/Topic27157-16-1.aspxAwake is my favorite album by them. But I really enjoy Train of Thought and Systematic Chaos.Sun, 09 Dec 2007 06:47:09 GMT9erhttp://livingformetal.com/forum/Topic27157-16-1.aspxNot necessarily..."older stuff" could also apply to Derek Sherinian.Sat, 08 Dec 2007 21:44:29 GMTThe Iron Maidenhttp://livingformetal.com/forum/Topic27157-16-1.aspxShouldn't "older stuff" just be the Kevin Moore era?Sat, 08 Dec 2007 19:59:27 GMTJeremyhttp://livingformetal.com/forum/Topic27157-16-1.aspxI personally like the Images & Words through Scenes from a Memory "era" the best. The newer stuff just hasn't done it for me. How about you guys (and gals)?Sat, 08 Dec 2007 19:02:24 GMTThe Iron Maiden
