He has an annoying snare sound

That's true, but apparently he won't join until the music is already written

Uh, imagine that! I guess this line-up would be way successful than for an example Transatlantic, although I don't wanna underestimate Roine, Neal and Pete (didn't mention Portnoy, as we have him involved in this one), but having Akerfeldt, Wilson, Duda and Portnoy in the same band = a real blast.

Anyway, this idea sounds good. I can't say I'm a fan of DT, though I'm not familiar with Portnoy, but a project with such big names will at least be interesting. Therefore I'm quite excited to see the result.

The half of which detest Dream Theater.  Except I'm not afraid to say that they're sh*t without getting my panties in a knot about freedom of speech and ethics.

You're such a brave man.

Nah.  I'm not brave as much as everyone else is a giant wuss.

Nightshine: anyone with even a third of a brain knows that Dream Theater is a fairly good band. They've written some great songs in the past, write some good ones now. Sure, they've had their flops and some abysmal things. But like them or not, badmouthing them like you are twelve and want to rebel against what your parents listen to makes you sound, well, like you're twelve. It's fine not to like them. It's fine to abhor them. But acting like you've got the inside scoop on all us sheep who don't instantly light on fire any form of Dream Theater product... Well, write some reviews of bands that you enjoy and we can tear apart your opinions.

So you find your opinion to be invalidated because lots of other people also have opinions? That's the opposite impression of what you gave with your above comments.

It's not about taking the ratings down from a 4.0 to a 2.0. No one has that kind of power--even collabs are only slightly more weighted. Really, the important part is the review. Show which albums you support, which you don't care for. Don't use a perceived lack of effectiveness as a reason not to even try.
