I love this album. 'The Glass Prison' is an amazing powerhouse and has yet to get old. 'Blind Faith' is beautiful - many goosebumps per listen. 'Misunderstood' seems experimental but it is very playful and heavy at the same time. 'The Great Debate' is, for me, one of the greatest songs ever written. Period. Go ahead, just listen to it. Even the last track, 'Disappear', I would argue, is a small masterpiece - packed full of little, subtle, sweet details of artsy musical genius.
The 2nd disc will go down in history for having the longest, yet still tasteful song (as the entire disc is considered to be one song).
Overall, an amazing double-disc album.

A largely ambitious album, that although not quite as concise as 'Metropolis II', still manages to keep the listener from skipping any tracks at all. Some songs I think do fail slightly with unnecessary repetition, but when such marvellous songs as 'The Glass Prison' and 'War inside my Head' are so memorable, it's easy to ignore that.

I probably should check out this album someday. I think it's the only one I haven't along with the debut.

I had to give it a 10 out of 10. This sound fits me. My favorite DT album. Very unique sound, great atmosphere, performance is just outstanding and I believe this album was a bit of an experiment.

Perfect Progressive Metal experience. If I had to pick one Dream Theater album which contains almost everything that this band have ever done, it would be this album. Essential.

Yeah, it's definitely one of their greatest albums. Their most ambitious and experimental release.
Nothing they've done since has come close to this.
