Background information über 'Images And Words'

"Images and Words" is a monumental album that marked the turning point for Dream Theater, establishing them as pioneers of the progressive metal genre.

The opening track "Pull Me Under" became their breakout hit, setting the tone with its intricate guitar work and dynamic shifts. Each song is a testament to the band’s dedication to musical intricacy without sacrificing emotional depth. "Metropolis [Part I]: 'The Miracle and the Sleeper'" stands out as an epic journey through tempo changes and thematic storytelling.
