Why do people contantly compare Symphony X and Dream Theater? They sound nothing alike. Someone, please explain.
I used to think so but as I became more familiar with SyX i realised that it didn't. The opening guitar riff is heavier than usual for Dream Theater, but the connection pretty much ends there.Manga-San said:The Mirror sounds a lot like a Symphony X style song...
Songwise, that's about it...
The Metal Chick said:There are a couple times when Romeo sounds a bit like Petrucci in some of his leads, but not really often.
MorphineChild205 said:Part of his solo in "Whispers" reminds me of John Petrucci. Other than that, I don't see any similarity between the two, either (except for the fact that they're both awesome guitarists).

2. With the whole Symph X, DT thing, doesnt there exist some sort of beef between the two bands? If there isn't, they should undoubtedly play a tour together, oh man, I could die after seeing that show.
