DT Fanboys

DREAM THEATER - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (2002) Review by 23Skidoo @ 5:55:25 PM EST, 5/20/2005   —   All I can say is WOW! After hearing the second disc I realized Dream Theater is the best progressive band ever, no matter what anyone else says. This music can honestly take people out of depression. The musicality in this album is absolutely amazing and I've never heard anything like it ever before. The only thing that even comes close in terms of musicality is their own side-project Liquid Tension Experiment's song Biaxident For those of you that really know music, this is exactly what you've been looking for. For those of you who just hate Dream Theater because you are just another dittohead on the forums, then I recommend you wake up and recognize Dream Theater for how good they really are. DREAM THEATER - Scenes From A Memory Metropolis Part II (1999) Review by 23Skidoo @ 5:48:35 PM EST, 5/20/2005   —   This album is pure musical genius and contains musical expression that barely any other band can emulate. Although it doesn't really fit with the title progressive metal that well, the music is beyond excellent and it deserves 5 stars without question. Anyone who objects obviously hasn't given it a good open-minded listen. This is an abesolute masterpiece and is, in my opinion, the 2nd best DT album ever released putting it right under Six Degrees. As a forum said recently, Dream Theater is NOT on its way to becoming the best progressive band ever... It already IS the best! uchhhhh, here comes another DT fanboy.

exactly, I'm not sayign I mind ppl who are fans of DT's music, whatever.  But the part where he says the only band who is as good as DT is Liquid Tension Experiment (which is DT personnel w**king to the extreme) really bothers me.  I havce a feeling he's giving every DT album *****

i'm not arguing wiht the ratings, if you feel its deserved, fine, that's good.  Just back it up.  This reviewer doesnt he just says how DT is the greatest ever, which is pure opinion and a pretty controversial one in the prog world.  Idk maybe I overreacted, I just feel like DT fans are powerful enough to wipe out the Genesis-Yes-ELP-Floyd-Tull-70's fans combined

Yeah, that one killed me.

jeez, what the hell else does this guy listen to? justin timberlake? Snoop dogg?

he must have missed a couple of decades somewhere to say this:

"After hearing the second disc I realized Dream Theater is the best progressive band ever, no matter what anyone else says."

Well, I guess we are all entitled to our opinion, but I think this dude needs to pay a visit to a prog festival or go to his local CD store and find some other music.

I don't know what to say, and that happens once in every 5 years.......

SO he likes it, leave the guy alone.

I actually like Liquid Tension better than DT.

If anything is going to put me off DT it is these so called FanBoys who are so over the top with their admiration for this band to the exclusion of all other prog bands many who are infinitely more accomplised than DT. Really, they should go and create their own little site which is for DT admirers only and stop ruining this forum, with their often childish behaviour and inane remarks - most often abusive of other prog music fans. When will this stop

Nothing childish about it - us 70's proggies have often said that we are open minded to all forms of prog including DT. However we don't act like we have extreme "tunnel vision" like so many (not all) DT fans
