I think maiden's gonna be heartbroken when he realizes that the members of DT *adore* PoS, and that Portnoy's invited Gildenlow to work on several projects with him.  |
I wonder what maiden thinks about Neal Morse, or the Flower Kings, or the Beatles, or Led Zeppelin
|
Led Zeppelin is great
Neal morse is ok
Flower kings i personally dont get
The beatles...i prefer rolling stones

The Odyssey is somewhat similar to ToT, but not to any other DT album. And V: The New Mythology Suite and The Divine Wings Of Tragedy, which are the Symphony X key albums, are not like any DT album.
Edit: Except in some short passages, as I explained earlier.

I hope you are using glasses. That would give your ears something useful to do...

Maiden: There already appears to be an underlying hate around this forum surrounding Dream Theater. By "bashing" POS predominantly because others bash DT just shows you up to be immature.
Maybe you should listen to more albums by POS rather than simply focusing your efforts on one. I'm not the biggest fan of POS either, but I still intend to get quite a few of their albums before making my mind up completely. It's possible to like both bands, you know.
And I see very little resemblences between Dream Theater and Symphony X.

He definitely has a point ... listen to The Looking Glass, and if you're a DT fan you'll have a deja vu during the intro. Honestly, you'll think "Is that Myung playing there?".

go listen to "handful of nothing" if you want complex.

That's on OHbtCL, isn't it? This is definitely the PoS album for polyrhythmic maniacs

The neoclassical ideas are executed similarly, but as somoene else said, there's a lot more of it - and much more power metal, and indeed metal in general, in Symphony X's sound (maybe that makes them less varied and more one-dimensional? ). There is quite a marked difference between the two - even if you took the vocals off, if I heard a whole song I'm pretty sure I'd know which it was.
Heaven's Cry? metal-archives is down so I can't find a link to their site... anyone got one?

Listened to a bit, it didn't really grab me. It's decently done, I guess, but not my cup of tea.

the only problem with POS is the rhythmic guitar sound!

It took as long to grow on me as did PoS ...
