Agalloch rips Dream Theater

[nailz]

Laughed until I cried.

Agalloch may have just become my favorite new band.

 

[OrbWeaver]

I think Agalloch are a terrible band. But the DT fanboy freak-out will probably be worth it.

 

[Prog_Please]

Thats hilarious. More comical than when Mikael Åkerfeldt took a cheap shot at Agalloch. You'd think amazing bands would have more respect for each other ! Can't wait to see Agalloch this Winter

[General Zod]

That's awesome.

 

[DuchessOfDork]

I've never heard of Agalloch, but, even if they're a shitty band (which I assume they aren't), that is a really good rip.

Brava.

 

[Mardoch]

Not only is it hilarious...but I tend to agree. I thought the last three were all pretty bad really.

Black Clouds and Silver Linings was an awesome fucking album.

that is a stretch, i may not like their new stuff but Agalloch will never record an album better than When Dream & Day Unite.

 

[The_Metal_Messiah]

that is a stretch, i may not like their new stuff but Agalloch will never record an album better than When Dream & Day Unite.

ha And that's DT's least amazing album, so yeah.... But NOBODY will ever record an album better than Awake.

WTF?????????????
That album blows dude.....
I could MAYBE put Images and Words or Scenes from a Memory up against Pale Folklore or Ashes Against the Grain..

Serious though?? WDADU?????????????

Oh well, different strokes for different folks....

WDADU is actually a pretty good album. The problem is the sound is incredibly dated. I have their official live bootleg where they play the album from front to back and it is MUCH, MUCH better than the studio version so much that I sold that copy off. I've never listened to Agalloch, so I can't really say, but I highly doubt they've put anything out there as good as a lot of DT's catalog.

Well, we know there is a date open at Reggie's (ZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Ok, and how would you like it if I said, "I never HEARD Dream Theater, but I bet they never released anything as good as the self-titled Angel Witch" Wouldn't your initial reaction be, "Umm.....how can you say that if you NEVER heard them??"

Seriously, if this isn't dark metal perfection, then...well.....I dunno:

Jason, Jason, Jason. You assumed that I didn't check them out. I actually did right after I posted that as I said at the time I hadn't heard them. Very excellent stuff. Dream Theater quality? Depends on the release probably.
