Six Degrees is the DT album I listen to the most... but it still doesn't get a lot of playing time.

I've never really "kicked" on DT, they're too obsessed with technique and not paying enough attention to content, imo. It gets boring quite quickly, none of their songs are really memorable in the same way as, say, CTTE, Echoes, 21st Schizoid, Thick As A Brick etc. And James La Brie has never sounded better than he did on the latest Ayreon album...

Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence is one of my favorite DT albums, but Disc 2 drags the album down a bit... it's slightly overrated, IMO. Disc 1, however, features some of DT's best songs and is agressive and heavier than most of DT's other stuff!

Rating:

  • Disc 1
  • 4.0 out of 5 starsDisc 2

Total:4.5 out of 5 stars

THIS IS A PROG METAL / PROGROCK MASTERPIECE!

THE FIRST DISC IS MORE METAL PROG,WHILE THE SECOND IS MORE ROCK- PROG, IMO.

I dont like it that much, it just lacks the spark that really gets me into it.

And ColonelClaypool, I think that many of DT's songs are memorable, CTTE I find very dull myself.

Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

I was somewhat disappointed when this came out and especially with disc 2. I think the reason for this was that I had heard samples of a couple of songs, and I think they were 'The Glass Prison' and 'Test that stumped them all' and I expected the album to be mostly like those songs. I don't own it currently but I'll probably give it another shot as it doesn't seem that bad to me now, but at the time I was not impressed with it.

Strange album, I wasn't too keen on it to start with but it kind of grew on me. I still prefer disc 2 much more than disc 1 though.
