Bad Salad - Certainly I'm not the only one who's seen them on youtube

While they played the Dream Theater tune well, it was more of a "copy" than a "cover" to me. They didn't really add anything to it. As such it paled in comparison to the original.

Their original tune, however, was good. I really enjoyed it. Hope to hear more from these guys in the future!
 
Wasn't one of the old drummers Paco Barillà? That kid slays. I need to check out this cd. Thanks for the bump.
 
Are they a digital only band? A buddy of mine turned me on to them via YouTube before they had a singer. The stuff I've heard with the singer sounds really good...may have to pony up for an iTunes card and buy my first official digital album if it's not on CD.

I am pretty sure you can buy a physical copy on cdbaby, here's the link.
 
With the festival now behind us, I now have a chnace to dig into a stack of new CDs that has been waiting on my attention. Bad Salad has produced a very good prog metal album with plenty of balls. Below is a preview video for Nemesis. There is certainly a nod to Rush but with more of a metal approach. Good stuff.

Ooooh, not sure how I missed this originally. Should've bought this years ago. There's more than a little bit of Images and Words/Awake era DT in there, which bothers me not one bit.
