Since their debut they are PROG MASTERS, but they can't reach bands like Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, King Crimson or Gentle Giant. But in prog metal they can't be beaten as a band! But there is one band which was better than DT and all other prog metal bands: PSYCHOTIC WALTZ !!! (R.I.P.)

My sentiments exactly ... well I'd be a bit harsher on the composer aspect ...

"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."

i think they are good, but not the best, i mean they have a lot of influence by great bands like Rush, Yes and Kansas....

Very Good band, but IT shows that virtuosity doesn't mean great music. They are not as good composing as Black Sabbath (comparing to another heavy metal band)

Dream Theater are good. Not quite very good enough, i have my reasons, but all the props in the world to a band that succesful in what they want to do, very talented, i just feel their is so much more out there that pushes my buttons more than this band ever could.
there is no spoon...

Progressive metal masters, but even the best prog metal is nothing compared to real prog...

When Day and Dream Unite is superb! Just give it 5 spins and listen to the drums! You'll overcome the hilarious vocalist and the poor production in no time!

Exactly, tracks like The Killing Hand and the Ytse Jam are just classics
