Regarding best songs I would drop some from The X Factor and would add Futureal and The Clansman from Virtual XI and Judgement Day from MOTE single. I believe that Futureal and The Clansman are not on pair with the top material from The X Factor but then again are better than the middle class songs. But regarding the dire ambiance of The X Factor, those 2 songs wouldn't mingle with the other ones and that wouldn't work as an album.

That being said:

Best 8 songs from Blaze era:
  1. Sign Of The Cross
  2. Lord Of The Flies
  3. Man On The Edge
  4. Fortunes Of War
  5. Look For The Truth
  6. Judgement Day
  7. Futureal
  8. The Clansman
But to make it work as a solid album I would go for:
  1. Sign Of The Cross
  2. Lord Of The Flies
  3. Man On The Edge
  4. Fortunes Of War
  5. Look For The Truth
  6. Judgement Of Heaven
  7. Edge Of Darkness
  8. Judgement Day
