Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

John Petrucci is an amazingly good guitarist, and I can only hope that someday I will be as good as him. That being said, Dream Theater makes me sleep.

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

Dream Theater is one of the most amazing bands to have ever existed. Petrucci is amazing; their songs have so much meaning. They aren't a bunch of crap piled together. They have more meaning that you could understand. Screaming has no meaning on the other hand. It's just screaming. Wanna hear screaming? Go scream yourself. It's impossible to replicate DT.

However in reality you know nothing, for MANY bands replicate Dream Theater the majority of Progressive metal is DT rip offs.

Quoted for truth. But still, I like prog metal : )

Pagan's Mind is another one of my favourite picks, but I can hear quite a few DT riffs. Not that's a bad thing really

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

I used to like their music a bit, but now I just like the keyboard guy. He's cool. But overall the vocals of the group aren't the best, but they're not too bad either. Not really in my favorites list.

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

If you like their keyboardist, Jordan Rudess, I reccomend you check out his solo stuff or stuff from Liquid Tension Experiment. 100% instrumental right there, and no whiny James La Brie : D

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

I like them, although they're nowhere near my favorite. The singers voice sounds like that of Insane Clown Posse's singer.

Pain of Salvation, The Devin Townsend Band, Tiamat (Wildhoney and A Deeper Kind Of Slumber), Sculptured, and Scholomance is all you really need.

I find it a little odd that you claim to hate a genre that you know very little about. There's actually few bands I listen to that are purely progressive metal, but there are tons I listen to that contain progressive elements - Opeth, Strapping Young Lad, Arcturus, Enslaved, Into Eternity, etc..

Well I guess I can shut up about hating all progressive metal if those bands truly include elements of it. Into Eternity and Enslaved are bad ass.

Opeth are essentially progressive metal with some death metal influences, not the other way around like it seems you are saying.

They tend to shift between album to album, and even song to song. Whereas Still Life, Deliverance and My Arms, Your Hearse tend to lean towards death metal, Blackwater Park and Ghost Reveries are more in the vein of progressive metal.

I really do dislike Opeth, talented musicians but the choppy song writing ruins it for me.

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

hmm i kinda like Opeth actually, dont have that much of them, but still they sound okay to me, and as for Dream Theater...theatre, whatever i care not, havent heard enough of them to actually have an opinion about them, friend of mine likes em, and we do have some similarities in musical taste so i might like em, dunno

as for bands i dislike? well mostly **** like linkin park, or Panic! at the disco, or similar, it just makes my ears bleed, on a non good way

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

Progressive Metal? Queensr˙che has it covered (When Chris DeGarmo was with the group). The Warning, Operation: Mindcrime, and Empire should keep most people happy for a while.

Re: I HATE DREAM THEATRE

Mindcrime II isn't half bad either, if you're going with some Queensr˙che.

Grab some Yes and Rush while you're on that prog train.
