Disco Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 People who like DT tend not to be able to dance. People who like DT do go to parties, but are rarely remembered as having been there by anyone else who attended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kubla Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I'm a new DT fan....because of what has been said on here. I recently got 'Images' and 'Scenes' and I keep playing them both...and indication to myself that I like what I'm hearing. If I don't the album gets dumped. Is 'Scenes' supposed to be DT's answer to PF's 'The Wall'? It does seem to be in the same ilk. I notice lots of PF related sounds and I even wondered whether one track was a tribute to Roger Waters, as it sounds just like him - forget the name of the track now [PS I am aware of their remake of DSOTM] I even hear some Hawkwind overtones (esp HW from the mid '90s). Is this deliberate? Some parts of Images sound like Guns'n'Roses, and sometimes sounding like Genesis, Supertramp, Journey and even Camel from the early '70s. I understand it when peeps say that some of the guitar work is a bit OTT and seems to weedle on a bit, out of context with the song, but in general I really like what I've heard. Any recommendations for my next album??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for the new DVD-Score Or if you really like the music ( and not all that crazy about the singing, like me) try the Liquid Tension Experiment discs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 What I don't get about the people who don't like DT, is why they waste so much time talking about them. If I don't like some band thread someone posts on here, I mostly don't even look in there at all...And if I do, once I've made my point I never go in there again...

Rush fans are just big babies!!! DT is the best band that ever lived. I've seen them seventy five times. Almost as many times as there are strings on the bass player's bass. Peart couldn't polish Portnoy's sticks. And it only takes three of them to do what Geddy does all by himself. And they almost do it as good as he does. Oh wait... that's not really a compliment is it? Sorry Tick. Dream Theater RULES... FOOLS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tri.ad Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I like Dream Theater. They're not my favourite band and I'm not a fan who defends them at all costs, but I'd be lying if I said that I don't like them. Dream Theater was the link through which I got into Rush and some other progressive rock and metal bands and I'm glad that I didn't miss their music. However, there are some things about DT I don't like: - Jordan Rudess' style of playing. His permanent urge to show off his skills without caring for the song is getting on my nerves. - Mike Portnoy's need to do really everything concerning the band's business. - Shredding fests that lead to nowhere and destroy some songs. But still, I enjoy most of their music and I hope that this won't change fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
