Both have some stellar albums, some weaker albums and have come back stronger on the last couple of releases.

It's always good to have the more unpopular options in a poll for people to choose!

Dream Theater... if only for Metropolis Part 2 they should win. Although they are a little repetitious and boring today.

I like some Metallica, but DT leave me completely cold. Great musicians, but they make prog by numbers and it's terribly boring.
For me, Riverside wipe the floor with them.

Dream Theater. Of course they will. Besides, I'm not a great fan of Metallica and the last 4 options above are unacceptable.

I like Master of Puppets but no DT albums, so I guess, Metallica.

None. I'm not much of a fan of either band. I just like a few of their songs, here and there. They are both good bands, but don't really fit to my taste in music.

^ Even most of the people with virtually zero knowledge about rock and metal music have at least heard of Metallica; for instance my parents. There is even a funny thing here that people say, "Metalikacı mısın?", which literally means, "Are you a Metallica head?" (They mean, metal head but think that Metallica is a type of music, lol.)

And now, there is the series The Stranger Things, and Metallica have released a brand new album. Add these to that.

If you really think that Black Sabbath is more popular than Metallica, you are dead wrong. Wink

What metal band do you think is the most popular? Though, I have to say that you'll be wrong with your prospective answer to that. Wink

I would've voted for Black Sabbath in preference over Dream Theater, even though that's "the wrong answer." Wink
