Really, it's "Paradise Lost" for me, but I've gone with the ultimate fanboy vote ;-)

Better than option 4  Must admit, it took ome time for me, to really appreciate Paradise Lost. So I'm hoping this goes for Iconoclast too.

I need to give Paradise Lost another spin before calling this one, though it'll probably be option 3 for me, I've given them both 4.5 stars on here, so as good as each other is most appropriate. ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

Paradise Lost. I love Iconoclast, but just not quite the same level! Also I deplore that final option and rage in your general direction  ------------- Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal! Listen to doom metal, worship Satan |

I was expecting more from Iconoclast due a certain review by a certain infamous member around here ( ) but I was slightly disappointed. Paradise Lost never really got me either. Or The Odyssey for that matter. For me, Symphony X's last great album was V:The New Mythology Suite. -------------

Hahaha, Ok I'll admit option 4 is a bit lame
 But sometimes the whole metalcircus is taken way to serious, so I was only trying to lighten the mood a bit. |

I'm sure that there are people out there who haven't heard about Sym X.

To be fair, I'm sure that certain member would note: The review did say this was less "old" Symph X and more new He may have said on FB as well if you didn't really care for Paradise Lost/the band be a bit cautious Not that I know who the person could be or anything! Just kidding Cotton Joe!  Of course I knew you were playing! Though still seeing Symph X and Jersey Shore together makes me  ------------- Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament.

Nah I can't rage if you havn't heard them. And CJ some lightheartedness in metal is always good! We need it, just can't have my favorite band and those wastes of life in the same sentence  Iconoclast is probably my 5th favorite out of their discog but I still love it so that says something! ------------- Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament.

| Seems like PL is the winner so far, although Iconoclast is getting better and better with each spin. |

It's interesting that Iconoclast is rated higher but doesn't have any votes. I think they're pretty equal, but Paradise Lost by a little bit. By far their best is The New Mythology Suite. |
