I agree with you. All the albums have good songs. I kinda enjoyed the new one, though I found the shorter songs forgettable. Like, really forgettable. Lost Not Forgotten, Bridges in the Sky and on the Backs of Angels are my favourites. Then Illusions and Outcry next. Rest were meh.
And I loved Black Clouds, though Shattered Fortress was kinda repetitive and boring(sure, its quite god and finishes off the saga, but meh). The intro to Nightmare is probably my favourite intro ever. It's so epic, dramatic.. and just wow. I wish I got to see that live. Also, the drumming on that track is intense.
