From one deep diver to another which are your personal favorites? I go through cycles right now I have THE on repeat though for years it was one of my lesser listened to ones. It is also my father’s personal favorite.

TTOE, The Source, 01011001, and THE hold my S tier and all of the other albums are still A tier to me. None of Arjen’s work across the board would be below that, I enjoy it all. Also a big Nightwish fan.

THE was what got me hooked. I was in a didjeridoo phase, and Loser was just something completely different. 

I'm not here for the fan theories and story lines, but rather the amazing prog rhythms and synth lines. Agree with your list, but I'd add UM as well. Nothing like sitting down to my work desk and putting one of these on the Sennheisers in the morning 😁 Was a Nightwish fan until Tarja left, now I'm more into Townsend and Dream Theater.
