SIX DEGREES OF INNER TURBULENCE

What can a band do after recording such a mastrpiece as "Scenes from a memory"? To be honest I didn`t thought they could`ve written something better than their previous album - now I konow I was very wrong. "Glass prison" is a very dramatic and beautiful song but also quite heavy. "Blind Faith" starts like a ballad but then the energy bursts out, very good song. This two songs are very nu metal, I don`t like bands like korn or Limp Bizkit, but isn`t this what prog rock suppose to be? Bursting the barriers beetween genres? Next song is "Misundrestood", very clam, it could be a radio hit if it was a couple of minutes shorter, but I find it one of the best tracks on this CD. But the best is still before us - "The Great Debate" I love this song, a very dramatic lyric (the song is about embrion cells therapy) and a piece of grat metal music, really great yob. And last but not least of the first CD "Dissapear" another ballad I like but it`s not one of my favorite songs. Just a fill up for the CD. Now let`s see what the second disc holds. Only one song but 42 minutes says for it self (Symphony X reached only 24 minutes :-)). What can I say about it? It`s a real masterpiece of metal music. I can`t remember ever hearing enythins so great and packed with emotions. My favourite parts of this music trip are "War inside my head", "The test that stumped them all", "Goodnight Kiss" (listen to that JP`s solo in the end!), "Solitary Shell" (of course) and "Losing time". Thats five of eight parts! If you consider yourself as a prog fan you have to hear it. I`m sure that in a couple of years "6doit" will be as popular as "The Wall" or "In The Court of Crimson King". It`s a must-have. That`s all I have to say
