This is some of the most shredding, progressive power metal I've ever heard...phenomenal!

Really didn't care for this album when I first heard it, but it grew on me a lot! It has some weak tracks, and I feel like too much of the lyrical content is awfully trite and cliche... but if you don't think "Electric Messiah" is amazingly intense, or that "When All is Lost" is intricate and beautiful, then I don't think I want to know you!

An amazing album, but I prefer Paradise Lost and The Divine Wings of Tragedy.

The riffs actually remind me a fair bit of Omega Wave by Forbidden although Symphony X has much better songwriting than that album!

Nevermore meets Evergrey :D NOT LOL @ the thrash metal tag, as at least 2 of the songs can be considered for [tag]progressive thrash metal[/tag]!

"No. Metallica sucks and always have. Symphony X surpassed them just with Divine Wings." - LOL

I find this one takes a few listens to grow on you - I think I prefer it over Paradise Lost. (Paradise Lost has some really good individual tracks, but Iconoclast flows better as an album, IMHO.)

Let compare everything to Metallica. Because it is a well known fact that Metallica are metal gods and so every heavy metal band, be it heavy or soft, must be compared to Metallica, since Metallica are also the most inspirational, fundamental, important and innovative band ever to play. Every album by Metallica is deemed Mega Platinum with the exception of Master of Puppets which is above any characterization, be it the absolutely and truly most metal album of all time. Also the whole term "heavy metal" is created by and for Metallica, all other bands are unworthy to be called heavy metal.

This here is a brilliant piece of Symphony X. It's definitely heavier and darker than their previous successors, but for this theme, it works great! Well done, gentlemen.
