Nice thread idea. One that immediately comes to mind:
Dream Theater:
Images & Words
Awake
A Change of Seasons
Falling Into Infinity (subject to significant debate by fans of the band, but I think it's a very good album)
Scenes from a Memory
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (same as FII)

Styx is a good shout. Stronger than any four consecutive by Jrny. If it was only two in a row you couild argue Escape and Frontiers, but for 4 definitely Styx is a good shoult.
I'd go with Alice Cooper, Love it to death, Schools Out, Welcome to my Nightmare, Billion Dollar Babies
or
What about Rush 2112 Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres, Permament Waves ??

I'm of the opinion that October is the best one of the bunch. After that, the pop side started to take over.

Van Halen I
Van Halen II
Women And Children First
Fair Warning

Truth be told - the other 3 are the classics, and I had to include Cornerstone to make that block....
But songs like Lights, Babe, Boat on a River, Borrowed Time, First Time....are fucking grrrrrreat!

Powerage ain't that good. If it wasn't there, we could have had a six album block starting with T.N.T.
