Best technical metal band?

[Mammoth]

Which band has the most technical, fastest with the most gruesome licks and mindblowing solos in the business?

Obviously other bands that COB, looking to widen my CD collections!

I really like:
Sonata Arctica
Adagio
Marcel Coenen

Any really cool proggy stuff would be great!

Graci!

I think that even though rhapsody gets a back rap, theyre fuckin talented as hell. I am still a fan of older inflames (colony, whoracle,) along with a local band (whos starting to make it) beyond the embrace. shadows fall and killswitch engage are also really good (originally local as well.)

theres also many more, i just cant think of any at the moment

Uhh??


@Dilema "although i wouldnt call them grusome and mindblowing... " I know I was just setting the tone for the type of music..

edit#2 Actually Adagio pretty much shoots anything else I've heard out of the fishpond...

Check out Decapitated's "Nihility".

[Janina]

-Evergrey
-DGM
-Ayreon (and every project made by Arjen Lucassen)

 

[Tut Ankh Amon]

@janina: finally i have to agree with you on a prog metal band
i listened to an ayreon and indeed some of the songs kicked ass

I'm a big fan of Dream Theater, Spastik Ink kicks ass, Bumblefoot too
Sun Caged, Andromeda (the first album, the second one blows )
And although i don't know too much of their stuff, Adagio also looks like a good technical one

 

[Janina]

Holy shit! I thought that this day will never come....

Yanko actually agrees with me when it comes to prog

But I still think that Symphony X is better than DT

 

[Aecliptica]

dream theater by a long shot

 

[A Fire Inside]

Dragonforce and Rage.


Their solos kick your ass.


NP: Sentenced - Guilt And Regret

 

[Missiles]

Have you ever listened to Twilightning? Give them a try.

 

[xOrdinary_Storyx]

ill have to go with sonata artica...they play the most technical music that i still find interesting to listen to. take DT for instance...fantastic musicians that write unbelievably complicated music, yet i find their stuff kinda boring after a while.
