Yeah but being a progressive band. Wouldnt that mean that you must continually progressing to remain progressive? And DT I feel are guilty of that.

From my prog adaptation of the 101 rules of black metal:

37. Insist that music should always progress, although as long as you write an album in the prog vein, you don't necessarily have to.
 
yeah well thats an inherent problem within the whole ethos of 'prog', ie it's become little more than just another genre, and doesnt actually live up to its name of being 'progressive'.

Still, I 'do' love me prog!
 
Neither progresses that much. Dark Tranquillity has progressed a thousand times more than both bands put togheter. Death progressed way more than either opeth or dream theater. By the terms most people defend their favorites they only portrait how lacking in "progressiveness" both bands are.
