Hello. My name is Matt and I am 14. I am new to this forum and my favorite band is Dream Theater. I love Progressive Metal, but I do not know which Cds to get. Ive got all the DTs, Ayreon - Human Equation (Which i didnt like, and didnt even consider that metal) I also have Operation Mindcrime whoch was ok. I like concept albums a WHOLE lot, and I like really epic metal. If some people could give me a list of about 10 or something Cds that are good that would be great! Thanks! ------------- Favorite Songs at moment A Change of Seasons The Mirror Losing Time/Grand Finale |

| epic metal? Try Kamelot the Black Halo and Karma, and Rhapsody. Those bands are pretty much the epitome of epic metal if you ask me. |

If you like epic metal try
"Rhapsody-Dawn of Victory" I would highly recommend "SYMPHONY X - V" It's a concept epic progressive metal cd other cds: "Superior-Ultima Ratio" (concept album)-like Operation: Mindcrime with some more influences of Dream Theater "Vauxdvihl-To Dimension Logic" "Payne's Gray-Kadath Decoded" both are incredible concept cds but very very hard to get but TRY IT! "Clockwork-Surface Tension" "Ice Age-The Great Divide" "Andromeda-II=I "Pain of Salvation-Remedy Lane" (listen to it really often!) "Yes-Close to the Edge" -------------

All Opeth and Symphony X-Divine Wings of Tragedy. That has great gothic/epic feel, due in part to Allen's incredible vocals. ------------- I'll see you on the Darkside of the moon... |
