because DT is trying too much to sound like other bands, they sound like a copy of U2 on song no.4 and 2, Muse on no. 6, Pink floyd & Genesis on no. 8, Metallica on no. 1 DT forgot their own uniqueness and they are trying too hard to imitate their idols. also, they want to sound "metal" (with no success) and for that reason their last albums are lousy and boring |

Song number 2 like U2? You are forgetting that U2 is one of DT's biggest influences, if you don't listen carefully, listen to Lifting Shadows of a Dream and you'll know what I'm talking about. 
Metallica on No.1? I thought that sounded like Velvet Revolver? Don't forget the Kansas vibe on the last song
too |

yeah, somebody told me about "lifting shadows..." I like that song, actually, and the influence from U2 is not so obvious and very light. On that song DT still sound like themselves and not someone else |

No, you aren't...I myself don't like very much the second disc of SDOIT. As I stated elsewhere it sounds too "plastic" to me...melodies aren't bad, however...in particular War inside my head ------------- A flower?

You are saying Dream Theater failed what they set out to do. "Octavarium" was made to kick the "Train of Thought" metal-idea, or so I read, and I believe they have. "Octavarium" sounds somewhat like "Falling Into Infinity" to me, but with more "Images & Words" now than ever displayed previously in any other album. It just so happens "Images..." is my favorite Dream Theater album, so obviously I'm satisfied, especially with the Pink Floyd 'interpretation' and influence on track eight. Even though there may be obvious riffs that have been copied and improved on (Track six is obvious I know), the album remains solid - much like "Images & Words." I'd choose this over pure metal anyday ("Train of Thought" for example). Your "(with no success)" reference to sound "metal" is meaningless, Dream Theater is metal and obviously sucessful. Lets just look at album sales and ticket sales. Dream Theater must have 1500-2000 ratings by now on ProgArchives and is on top of the "100" list for genre, you tell me what success for a "prog" band is. No Dream Theater is not my favorite band. This is all just the way I hear it. |

Yes, it's difficult to pick just one, anyway... When Dream And Day Unite- haven't heard it Images and Words-Wait For Sleep. Just beautiful, don't you think? Awake-Innocence Faded. I was once told this song was one of their most complete arrangements, for the tempo, the solos and LaBrie's vocals...I agree Falling Into Infinity-Hell's Kitchen. From the instrumental tracks I have heard, this is my favorite Metropolis 2-Home. A hard choice, this one is my favourite DT album Six degrees-haven't heard it Train Of Thought-haven't heard it Octavarium- Octavarium. Maybe because I also love Pink Floyd. The song is amazing!! Please dear fellows give this album a try! I think this one is a flatter album, with a bit of every style DT has, somehow like Images and Words. Don't be mad at them! Probably Train Of THought overshadowed Octavarium, I don't know, can't say a word yet, but come on!!

For me, instead, when I saw DT in Turin during Metropolis II tour, I was a little bit disappointed. Metropolis II is a masterpiece, but sometimes LaBrie voice failed. And they (only) played: Metropolis II and a 20min medley of "past songs". That's all... you know... it was a feeling like coitus interruptus. ------------- Semm che, semm che settą giņ in del bar / a cercą l'universo nel bucčer del Cynar cosmonauti al tavolino cun la sigareta in błca / che vemm a cambią el mund apena finissum la sambuca |
