Dream Theater

[ingenkommentar]

Get Awake, and maybe I&W.

 

[derbeder]

I agree. Awake is the best DT album overall, followed by Images and Words. I am now listening to 'The Mirror' I haven't listened to this album forever, but whenever I do, I love it.

 

[waz416c]

cant believe no ones mentioned..."THE SPIRIT CARIES ON"...!!!!.......its got teh best melody adn teh best Petrucci SOLO EVER...!!!!........u must listen to that song...also Through her eyes, Silent man, erotomania, hollow years, overture 1928 , PEAC EOUT

 

[HazeM*]

apc are nice and melow, DT are wangers

 

[Sean Casey]

get the song "This Dying Soul"

 

[derbeder]

apc have some good songs. but they seem to be a little too pretentious at times, trying to be highbrow but not quite making it either. dt are way too pretentious nowadays, too, but in a different way. now it's all about showing off with solos at the speed of light and not on composing songs that make sense. songs on the earlier albums tend to be better.

 

[Nobiss]

Not sure what it was about DT but I just couldn't get into them. Maybe I'll try again. :Smug:

 

[MixGrafix]

but I am going to check them out on Monday Night at the State Theater in Detroit should be a good show. I will form my opinion after.
I wish Tubbs was going with me.

Probably their shitty singer.
If they had a decent vocalist this band would kick major arse. Right now they just kick slightly above mediocre arse.

Their singer is good. He can stay in key.

 

[Don Corleone]

scenes from a memory is my fave dt album. i highly suggest that one and advise you skip anything released afterwards

 

[Necromantic-Hiko]

Their singer is good. He can stay in key.

the problem is he goes way too high sometimes, and can get really, really annoying.


It doesnt happen all the time, but it happens a pretty good deal.

 

[OpethNZ]

yeah labries voice is irritating to the extreme in parts, though SFAM is a decent album, everything else is pretty crap

 

[Gunt Piddlesworth]

yeah the singer is bad. plus they write bad songs. bad band

 

[Tubbs]

I'm trying to get into them because people seem to worship them, so i though i'd make the effort and ask their self confessed, biggest fanboy. Tubbs, (or anyone), recommend me their 5 best songs, or 10 if you can't narrow it down.

And, you know...have a general DT discussion if you want, it's out of my hands now.

Hmm...

Metropolis Part 1
Misunderstood
Caught In A Web (Definitely)
The Mirror
Pull Me Under
Only A Matter Of Time
A Change Of Seasons
Octavarium
In The Name Of God
Hell's Kitchen
Erotomania
Beyond This Life
One Last Time
The Spirit Carries On
Lines In The Sand

I had to pick 15, 10 is not enough.

But why did you have to make this thread? You know I'm probably going to complain about someone's remark and then start another stupid flame war.

 

[Kenneth R.]

I effing hate Caught in a Web. actually Tubbs, I think you've covered (save maybe 5) my least favorite DT songs.

 

[Tubbs]

Haha! Kenneth. Caught In A Web is actually my #1 favorite DT song, period. That just gives me a giggle that you don't like it.

 

[Khayman666]

Pull Me Under
Caught In A Web
A Change Of Seasons
Home
The Glass Prison (though I think it only needs to be half as long as it is)
And maybe Voices, The Mirror and Lie.

 

[Kenneth R.]

Metropolis Part 1
Misunderstood
A Change Of Seasons
Beyond This Life
One Last Time
Lines In The Sand

there's my purple list

 

[derbeder]

does anyone else like dt's cover of perfect strangers? it blows my socks off.
