Which band released the 1992 album Images and Words, featuring “Pull Me Under”?

The story behind the answer

Dream Theater released the 1992 album Images and Words, which features “Pull Me Under.”

Images and Words was Dream Theater’s second studio album and their first to feature vocalist James LaBrie. It was released on July 7, 1992, and became the group’s commercial breakthrough. “Pull Me Under” was issued as a single and received significant radio and music-video exposure.

The album is a landmark of progressive metal because it combines extended compositions, shifting meters, virtuosic instrumental passages, and carefully developed arrangements. Other tracks include “Take the Time,” “Metropolis—Part I: ‘The Miracle and the Sleeper,’” and “Learning to Live.”

A frequent mistake is identifying Images and Words as Dream Theater’s debut. That album was When Dream and Day Unite, released in 1989, with Charlie Dominici as vocalist.
