 Topic: Arjen Lucassen 2020 Poll
Posted: 16 May 2024 at 12:38am |
Looks like this poll is out of date already. The man sure has been especially busy lately with several new releases since 2020.
We don't get a great many votes on these things but I guess I'll put a new 2024 version up, future-proofed with his upcoming releases.

It´s been so many years since I last listened to an Arjen Lucassen related release, that I can´t vote here. I own the first many Ayreon releases, but it´s not really my poison.

I went with THE (my favourite album of all time), TTOE and ITEC.
Arjen is one of my prog heroes😎

Into the Electric Castle and The Human Equation are the two most obvious choices for me. Third place is a toss up between 01011001 and The Source, which are albums that play well together back to back (and I often do) but I've gone for the former since it's older and proven to stand the test of time. He's got more than those four that are deserving of being voted for though. I also really like The Theory of Everything, Lost in the New Real and Victims of the Modern Age.

There's half a dozen I could vote for here but I've gone for Into The Electric Castle, 01011001 and The Human Equation. I've got Electric Castle on now - brilliant album,

Guess I'll go with the introductory albums The Human Equation and Dream Sequencer. I'm torn between Actual Fantasy and 0101101 but going with the latter due to its wider collection of songs and guests.

Arjen works have always been a hit and miss with me, to put it gently.
Ayreon - Into the Electric Castle out of these I guess.

I'm going for 01011001, The Human Equation and Star One - Victims Of The Modern Age.
The new ones not hitting me yet.

I voted for The Human Equation (obviously, since it's my favorite album of all time), The Source and I actually went with a bit of a curveball for my third pick and chose Victims of the Modern Age. I could have gone with either The Theory of Everything or Into the Electric Castle, but decided to make one non Ayreon selection, and I really do like that particular Star One album about as much as any non THE Ayreon album, anyway.

With the recent release of the latest Ayreon album Transitus, here's an updated poll for all of Arjen Lucassen's projects from his first solo album under the name Anthony right up to the present day. I'm asking for you to pick your top three but the way the polls have to be set up it does mean that you are able to vote more than three times, so I'd kindly ask everyone to not cheat.
