liquid tension experiment

[Nexis]

anyone heard this stuff? it's fucking great. instrumental stuff with practically everything in it. there's a predominant rock/metal bit to it, but it includes everything from jazz to classical to flamenco type stuff, and it's so good. check out the track "acid rain"...or anything else I guess. it's all good.

 

[Oriion]

yup.
i have their first album. it's gOOd!

 

[usefulidiot]

it sounds like they are ripping off dream theater sometimes though

 

[GhostOfPerdition]

..they ARE Dream Theater.. pretty much

I think its just mike portnoy and some other guys, isn't it?

Portnoy (DT)
Petrucci (DT)
Rudess (DT)
Tony Levin (omgz.)

Tony Levin is the best part about it, and LTE > DT.

 

[Nexis]

many things > DT.

I don't agree with that in the least, he himself hated playing on those albums cause he was stuck playing the crap those guys wrote. He almost never does anything very interesting, either, he basically just follows the other instruments (besides the short songs on the first cd). Stick is fun though.

 

[opeth_353]

i like LTE .. but parts of it are just plain crap.

 

[ashes_against_the_grain]

I have both albums. Great stuff from great guys! And no James LaBrie (sometimes he annoys me).



now playing : Liquid Tension Experiment - Liquid Tension Experiment 2 - 01 - Acid Rain.mp3


P.S. BTW I am going to DT show at Radio City Music Hall on Saturday \m/ They are going to kick ass i know!

 

[The Human Equation]

L.T.E.

Total agreement.

 

[Black Paragon]

They are awesome.

 

[Braighs]

Dream theater without vocals > DT with 'em

 

[WeepingMoon]

I love LTE sometimes it can get crazy...like, no feeling what so ever going on, but other times it's quite emotive.

either way, it's a good group of musicians having fun with music. the 22 minute improv song is quite nice when u think about it.

haha yea James Labire is their weakest link in my opinion.
God knows why ayreon got him to be the main character in the human equation.
