Symphony X. I'm genuinely surprised said band isn't more popular around here!

Symphony X
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

I'll give it to Queensryche, but they really don't stand a chance.

My thoughts exactly.

I am very mad that Riverside beat Dream Theater. In my honest opinion even though Riverside is good they are aren't or ever was as original as Dream Theater was at several points in there career. Images and Words, Awake, and yes even Train of Thought( I know a lot of people will disagree with me there) were all more progressive, pushing the boundaries then Riverside ever was. Yes I think Second Life Syndrome and Anno Domini High Definition were indeed great albums they just weren't as unique as Dream Theater's. Yes Dream Theater laid some eggs in the past ( last two cds) but over all i think they are much better. I personally think Lunatic Soul is more interesting than Riverside but thats just me. 

Now, Im sorry I ranted. I Love PAIN OF SALVATION they are amazing and each cd is different from their previous release. thats why they got my vote.
