3 stars Maybe one of the best Dream Theater album ever, "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence", with the exception of few songs, is really a good work. The comparing with the previous album, "Scenes from a Memory" is 10-0 for "Scenes...", because in this work there is the base for "Train of Tought" that I've found really a bad record.

The songs are more simply than in the past and it sounds good: Petrucci (the one I like in DT, because I hate the others of the band... Only Petrucci have musical taste, Portnoy is only a clown, Myung plays by memory, with no passion, Ruddes is good but too much metal than prog and last Labrie, the worst voice in the world) never mistakes a solo or a riff, Ruddes plays quite good, with jazzy passages in the overture of the second CD. Labrie sings like a dying dog. But after all I have to say that this is a good album, with great moments, but with that annoying metal line that is the ruin of this band.

Dream Theater are not considered in progressive world like veterans or deity, so they're good musicians (Petrucci is the best of the band even in musical taste than in tecnics) but not the genious that guys who loves metal or heavy metal want to make you trust.
