Younique is the second full-length Superior studio album, released in May 1998.
The music of the album is characterized by heavy guitar riffing, diverse keyboard arrangements and sounds, very complex and individual instrumentation, acoustic guitars, sitar-sounds, brass arrangements and saxophone solos. The influences can be tracked from Latin music, Funk, Classical music and Jazz.
Many worldwide magazines celebrated “Younique” as a milestone in progressive music, but the album divided fans into two camps, one being fascinated and the other one shocked.

Confusion with Train of Thought
Around 2003, in many file sharing networks, Younique was released as Dream Theater's album Train of Thought, causing many confusions between Dream Theater fans. "Younique"'s music is very similar to Dream Theater's, and this fact helped the confusion to get bigger. And because Train of Thought has only seven tracks, Younique was cut between tracks 7 and 8, resulting in a release with 7 tracks. Unfortunately, many Dream Theater fans that have downloaded "wrongful Train of Thought" album think to this day that Younique is actually Train of Thought.
