I don't want to decide on that just yet, but I get having a preference here. They're quite distinct from one another

Original is a snooze-fest with horrible production, this on the other hand has some delicious melodies

This is a statement that I would not agree with.

Oh, probably true! I like the original a tiny bit better, because it's just more menacing, but that's splitting hairs. This is the kind of stuff I could use to help people get into DM

Highly overrated. Many of the riffs here, other than the ones recycled from the first Crimson LP, simply do not sound like Edge of Sanity. This drastically impacts the tone and feel of the LP - to my ears this is clearly a Dan Swano work, and much less of an Edge of Sanity album (aside from the aforementioned riffs that appeared on the first. Crimson LP). It is not a bad record and is definitely worth a listen, but the classic EOS melodies and slightly neoclassical riffs are rarely present. The brutal death metal has been toned down as well, and the record feels just as disconnected from classic EOS as Cryptic is. That being said, Dan without the rest of the band yields better results than Cryptic did. Everything from Unorthodox - Crimson is far more essential listening.

Let me try. This one is very good. The original is one of the best metal albums ever made.
