I was wondering looking at this list why it hasn't got a thumbs up from me, probably because of too much Ayreon

A lot of great albums in there so

Not into Ayreon..? For me it's as though you have to take the good with the bad. But I have no idea why people fall in love with The Electric Castle.. It is full of boring slow tracks it's not even metal but the few albums after that have some surprisingly impressive tracks.
