Indeed, they've mastered what I loved about DT so much -wedding between melody and complexity. Discipline ? I don't get the fuss. I've tried several times their new album and can see why people like it, but me personally ? Nope, doesn't ring a bell. There must be someone like me out there, right ? Not everybody has fallen under enchantment of them :-D

Haken pushes all the right buttons, but for me there is not much substance behind it. The dreaded prog by numbers moniker, I'm afraid, as far as I see it. Maybe with more exposure they will click with me.
Discipline is passion, great hooks, tremendous vision. They produced (along with Anglagard) one of the enduring prog albums from the 1990s.
But to each his own!

"prog by numbers"
Hit the nail on the head there! Though I don't think much better of Discipline, I'd have to pick them in this poll.
