LATERALUS

A total masterpiece. This is the closest thing to Dark Side of the Moon I've ever heard but heavier and angrier. They are the present of prog metal and continue to make brilliant work throughout their career. Danny Carey's drumming is forceful and strong yet he has a delicate touch which concides perfect with the album Strong and heavy yet vulnerable and delicate at time. Most of today's mainstream bands don't understand dynamics but these guys use them beautifully. Schism may be the best love song out there because its not an obvious ballad. A must for any prog and metal fan!
