I can dig some songs, but mostly I think they do too much at the expense of losing the song in favor of showing off. Too many virtuosoes in one band maybe? While there was a lot of HOLY f**k moments... the show for me... was boring. I fell asleep. This doesn't prevent me from trying to "get" their appeal. I'm still listening. The last album is growing on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fledgehog Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 For those who don't appreciate this whole "wanking" buisness, Octavarium and Images & Words are probably the two best choices for starter albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good cd. Don't know it's name either. I will give Octavarium a try. I can't see how a band with such amazing players isn't gripping me, so I want to keep trying.

Dreamline Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I am one of those that doesn't get this whole "wank-fest" accusation - particularly from die-hard Rush fans. Have you listened to La Villa Strangiato recently? (LVS is my favourite Rush tune BTW so no criticism of them implied) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledgehog Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I now know what DVD I'm getting after score: That would be Images & Words live in Tokyo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-P2gDZjGeU ^^that just gave me chills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fledgehog Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 James LaBrie is the best vocalist ever I&W tour footage of Surrounded -- Why did he have to go rupture his vocal chords? Youtube is totally f***ing up the audio/video synch for me, so don't be surprised This is the same show as the Pull Me Under clip I posted earlier. James' voice on the I&W tour totally pwns his 8VM voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the masked drummer Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Howz the new DVD? My guitarist went to that show in NY & said it was incredible. I can't wait to buy and watch it, but I've had band practice every single night. Any reviews? I haven't had time to read the posts. Tick, I'm sure you've watched it, eh?

That's about the same show I saw them play a few times when they first started touring (like 4 shows in a year), when James joined. They started every show with Metropolis (my fav) and it was definately a spine-chilling show! I'd highly recommend that dvd. It has 5 years in a livetime on it, too. Great price as well!!!!

Tick Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 i viewed "score" last night and it was nothing short of incredible. i loved the band playing with the orchestra, it gave me goose bumps watching it. octavarium, 6 degrees and sacrificed sons blew me away. i also would say the one hour documentary was worth buying the dvd for that alone. im a huge fan of the band so my opinion is bias but i totally loved it !

the masked drummer Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Thanks Tick, I also saw the reviews on amazon, which concur with my guitarist's recollection of the show. Plus, the extras incld history will be nice. I talked to a girl on MySpace studying at Berklee and she said the core members' signatures are on the wall there on a plaque, which is kinda cool. Can't wait to see these discs!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rush! Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Just bought Images & Words today, but I also bought Cream - Disraeli Gears. I'm listening to DG now, I may listen to I&W either tonight or tomorrow. Don't know if I'll have a chance tonight. The artwork is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xredsectorx Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 kk. i don't think that the store had either one of those, but then again i wasn't really looking for dream theater stuff when i went in. i'm not a metal fan, but this stuff is really good. i guess it must be the progressive part of it.
