Hi! I have almost two years trying to find a similar album to Dream Theater's - Train Of Thought, you know, with superb and heavy musicianship, long songs, tight compositions. Any ideas? ------------- Progressive music, a kind of life. |

Generally, the bands that play the kind of material on that album are nowhere near that good. There may be a handful of prog-metal bands that will satisfy the criteria (Symphony X as an example), but none of them are going to sound like Train of Thought. ------------- www.last.fm/user/ThisCenotaph

Metallica-...And Justice For All
Megadeth-Rust In Peace These are the two albums that come to mind most often for me when I listen to ToT. Not necessarily "prog metal", but those two albums definitely have a "progressive-ism" to them. And they both fit the description you gave.

Those are nowhere near the degree of complexity and technicality that is Train of Thought |

If you like Train of Thought then there's not much I can do for you except recommend therapy. 2nd rate Metallica. That may be generous. Images and Words is a lot better because they don't try to be too heavy. |

Try These, but I say to you Train of Thought is a Unique album and it is unliky that you will find Anyting similar to it. Orchid- Opeth Morningrise – Opeth The Devine Wings of Tragedy – Symphony X Twilight in ------------- "I can't see through my eye lids" |

I agree, Try 'Master Of Puppets' by Metallica or '..and justice for all' you'll even find 'Blackened' on that...then the song 'Endless sacrifice' will suddenly sound familiar to you!! And 'Orion'...humms ounds familiar too!! |
