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.

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. |

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. |

THIS IS A PROG METAL / PROGROCK MASTERPIECE! THE FIRST DISC IS MORE METAL PROG,WHILE THE SECOND IS MORE ROCK- PROG, IMO. |

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:

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... |

I found 6DOIT disappointing after Scenes at first listening, but now I think 6DOIT is superior to SFAM.It's my favourite after IAW and Awake.

This is DT's best in my opinion, it would be alot better if "the Great Dbate" wasn't on it though.

Ivan:
read how many reviews there are giving images and words or scenes from a memory 4 or 5 stars. If 90%/the majority of people on the site hate dream theater as you say then why would they recieve so many positive reviews? SFAM is one of the most reviewed and highest rated albums on the site. DREAM THEATER Scenes From A Memory Metropolis Part II ratings (144 entries)

If you, Ivan, hates DT so much, why are you visiting every f**king topic of DT.
I do not hate DT, I was their fan, but the became boring. They have complex music, but just in one line, they are not comlex in whole structure. |

This is kinda ridiculous, but... Okay, first two pages - Bluetailfly (sic - "I thought DT were darn good"), Gentle Ronnie, Velvetclown, Easy Livin Frechie, Arkitek, Ben2112, antisilence, billyshears67, terramystic, Cygnus X-2, Metropolis, Valarius, Calvo, Greenback, Snow Dog, Sigod 17 members opinions for DT in different degrees. And I wouldve added mine instantly if I had not been on a vacation from the forums then Yes, 17 is less than 21, but this kinda disproves your claim that 90% of the people here are against DT. And yeah, an emphatic NO to perceiving DT as no 1 prog band of all time does not have to mean the person expressing this opinion does not like DT. My opinion would have been an emphatic NO too, and I love DT. Peace Edited by Manunkind |

Amazing no? 84.12 members of this forum don't like Dream Theater or at least don't consider them a great band. The conclusions you come to based on this poll are wrong Ivan. It obviously means that 84.12 % of us dont think that DT will be the Best Prog band ever! Not that they dont like them! I voted no myself for example, but I absolutely love DT, I cant wait for the next album(well I can , I have to anyway |
