I couldn't disagree more with that. I didn't like The Turning as much because the lyrics are just there, it's like it doesn't really mean anything. The Accolade, Through the Looking Glass, Rediscovery, the epics or "mini-epics" in other words, are my favorites. The lyrics tell a story, it's great imagining the story happen in your head and stuff. If Sym X ever start writing lyrics that directly touch life issues I'm probably gonna get really pissed and purchase every DT album pre-6degrees and get a new favorite band..MetalMan57 said:Wow there are some borderlining ludicris requests...I'll try and keep mine realistic...
1. RELEASE THE NEW ALBUM
2. TOUR and come to Pittsburgh for an all ages show.
----ITd be cool to see them for an evening with DT style, but they still aren't big enough I think.
----IF they could do a Fall/Winter tour with DT thatd be AWESOME. Just those 2 and ONLY SX and DT. No Opening acts, 90 minutes each. However, DT is taking the summer off after a long tour which means next up for them is probably the studio, not another tour.
3. Somehow get on like atlantic records, epic, universal, capital, or some major label that could help them out.
4. Being anti power metal and such, I think they should stray away from another epic. They just did one. Take a break, make another twilight or damnation esque album with a 10 minute mini epic.
----Moreover, Less fantasy stuff. Or at least make it cryptic like The Turning. I know that is like something talked about on the website in FAQs or something, the fact that they don't touch life issues, but thats what strikes nerves with people and makes further networking and recognition. ...That and...
5. BALLS OUT TOURING. I know they are a bit further along with their lives and careers. But I think DT showed that if u want to be a prog band and be big, you better tour your balls off. And play big shows with big setlists.
Damnit, dude. It's enough I gotta hear this shit from you in real life all the time. Now you're coming to my favorite online hangouts and spreading your hate of all things epic.MetalMan57 said:4.
