Yeah beacause Åkerfeldt and Wilson are known for their boring music... *facepalm*

 

[MadTinus]

This should be very interesting indeed.

Steve sure is.

Sounds like it's going to be about experimenting mostly, which is likely to make it something überpretentious.

 

[Lisra]

Hm.. always open to the possibility that it may kick ass.

 

[Katatonic89]

Steve sure is.

On what fucking planet do you live?

 

[isolation_years]

nice, im glad its not going to be prog death, ifi wanted that id listen to opeth


i like their taste in experimental music haha, so im hoping this will be excellent too

 

[Morfeind]

I'm interested. Will buy for sure.

 

[Coma323]

It will be anything BUT that, I'm sure.

I do see Stefan86's point in that if it's going to be experimental, it is very likely to be pretentious. However, Opeth and PTs music is already pretentious to an extent. Funny thing is, they're pretentious because they take music extremely seriously, and write serious songs about serious stuff mostly. Is that pretentious?

Maybe we should all just listen to The White Stripes for REAL music



Edit: Glad to hear Mike Portnoy isn't going to be a part of it. He'd ruin it imo.

Edit again: never mind, apparently he is, according to the article

This could turn out super fucking excellent, or super fucking boring.

Let us pray.

This sounds promising, lets hope it pans out well.

Really wish they'd go with Gavin Harrison instead of Portnoy...not really interested to hear any of his vocals or mechanical drumming on the album.

Yeah, I doubt he'll try the whole vocal thing for this or at least I really hope he doesn't.

awww man dreamtheatre suck (not live though)



even though i dont really like DT, mike portnoy is easily the greatest drummer of all time, just watch him, the only person who can challange his skill is himself

all of DT members are skilled, no doubt. But it's the most boring band i ever heard. I'd choose Gavin in a blink of an eye. As far the project goes, must agree that will be something pretentious, i'm not having high hopes about it.

There are plenty of rock drummers that can play just as good as Mike if not better (a bunch you, and I have never even heard of). Besides there are drummers who are better at different styles like Jazz or whatever. Don't get me wrong he's a talent guy, but just not the bestest evarr.
