Kevin Moore's keyboard overture in Part I is instantly memorable, though sounds a little derivative of eighties horror film themes ('A Nightmare on Elm Street' in particular). This song is perhaps the best here, as it works excellently as an introduction to set up what would ultimately fail to be achieved thereafter, concluding with Ray Adler's haunting oration.

If 'Perfect Symmetry' was a little dull and repetitive, 'A Pleasant Shade of Gray' is among the most tedious progressive metal albums I've heard, though still one that has its moments. What sets out to be the band's magnum opus ends up failing in many respects, the twelve songs that listeners are invited to view as sequential movements of a single fifty-three-minute song actually being more truthfully revealed as separate and largely unrelated tracks containing very few ideas, that might as well have been given individual titles.

Generally good album 
Not as good as their other stuff The best metal/hard rock album in time? maybe Allegedly ''the sell out album'' Pioneering progressive metal with a distinctive approach. Too many slow songs try my patience. Pioneering progressive metal. Rather samey. More songs, nice dual guitars, continues established sound. Pretty much the same thing again and again.Nostradamus - Judas Priest
Long, intriguing, different. Bulked out by too many interludes and slow songs.
Point Of Entry - Judas Priest
Mellow, for those who found 'British Steel' too oppressive. Mellow, which is boring.
Ram It Down - Judas Priest
Heavy, fun and stupid. Still hasn't shaken off the synthetic drums and tendency to write cheap pop songs.
Reroute To Remain - In Flames
Continuing to evolve the melodic death metal genre (for better or worse). Repetitive, generic and stilted sound.
Screaming For Vengeance - Judas Priest
Commits itself to a heavier and more intense sound, and succeeds admirably. Weaker attempts at pop-metal remain.
Silver Spoons And Broken Bones - Stone Gods
Some stomping 1980s style pop-rock tunes Some really awful lyrics.
The Black Halo - Kamelot
Consistent, good atmosphere. Dull and samey.
The Fourth Legacy - Kamelot
More confident and focused release, boasting great variety. Inconsistent, and ballads are quite dull.
Tribute To The Gods - Iced Earth
Many rock and metal favourites. Disappointingly obvious selections, and no attempt to make the sound their own.
