02.05.25 | new album hypeeeeeee |
KjSwantko
02.05.25 | Respectable effort. A Change of Seasons remains maybe my favorite. Innocence caresses meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee |
AlexKzillion
02.05.25 | getting to this final 25 was surprisingly easy but this is a rather loose ranking overall |
KjSwantko
02.05.25 | I don’t care for Scenes the way you do, but I can understand the appeal. I’ve just lost interest in the wankery DT over the years. Conversely, I look at songs like “Another Day” as brilliant. One of my favorite all time solos too. |
SomeCallMeTim
02.05.25 | many Awake songs need to be much higher =[ |
Zakusz
02.05.25 | Agreed that Another Day is a genius song full heartedly, but when I spin DT it is not for that reason in the least. I am there for the wank... and then I move on |
SomeCallMeTim
02.05.25 | you dirty dog |
Zakusz
02.05.25 | Also A Change of Seasons is easily my favorite. And In the Name of God |
Hawks
02.05.25 | God awful band agreed everyone. |
Zakusz
02.05.25 | IDK man, music can be fun |

02.05.25 | hmm I think I would have a lot of differences if I made this list!
e.g. I'd choose Take the Time and Surrounded before Pull Me Under, Voices and Scarred instead of Lie, Endless Sacrifice over This Dying Soul (though 4 tracks from ToT may already be too many LOL), and I'd have to rep WDADU with The Killing Hand
I like the inclusion of Peruvian Skies though and of course they have many agreed upon classics like Learning to Live |
chemicalmarriage
02.05.25 | Great list |
AlexKzillion
02.05.25 | gotta take things with a large grain of salt but the pre order vinyls have shipped already and the dt subreddit seems head over heels for the new one |
Titan
02.05.25 | Alex bro wtf where is surrounded? And space dye at 25?????? Pffttt
Lots of great choices though |
Veldin
02.05.25 | Been to a deep discog dive this past year, because I love prog and have never listened to this band before. Currently on Systematic Chaos, but I have heard various songs on successive albums. Very good list of songs imo. New album is awesome. Cheers!
@Hawks- super fun band and great group of dudes! ;) |

22 meh sure
23 really?
24 corn
25 of course
verdict 5-6/10? |
AlexKzillion
02.06.25 | erotomania / voices / the silent man probably make it in as one piece of music but did not want to attempt ranking that against regular tracks. same with six degrees.
overall awake is probably my third fave dt album but its more so because of consistency than any huge highlights |
DamnVanne
02.06.25 | I listen to Take Away My Pain about twice as much as every other DT track combined. Great song |
Meborphus
02.06.25 | I'd shuffle this list a bit, but lots of good choices. I'd switch most ToT songs with more Six Degrees tracks, and would dare to offer up a Bridges in the Sky or Breaking All Illusions into the mix! |
el_newg
02.06.25 | yep Breaking All Illusions gotta be the best from the Mangini era and could have a spot in the list |
KjSwantko
02.06.25 | Hell’s Kitchen and Misunderstood are probably my favorite underrated songs. Interestingly, I don’t like that era of DT too much but always loved those songs. |
Beardog
02.06.25 | Nice list |

AlexKzillion
02.07.25 | @parellels way too many six degrees and octavarium duds on that list brother
