I love DreamTheater.
I remember when I was in 8th grade, one of my math buddies that I sat next to in class was absolutely crazy about them, and always was talking about them. I was curious and asked him if I could listen. He brought me a tape that I still remember had two Rush songs and two DreamTheater songs, 6'o clock and Erotomania.
I was hooked from then on. I loved the crunchy guitar riffs, the mind bendingly fast solos (for me at the time at least) and the unique vocals. The very next day I went out and bought Awake and also what would become my all time favorite album of all time: Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory.
These days I don't listen to them as often, but they are still my second most favorite band.
I don't really like their new albums as much, they seem to be changing their sound a bit and going an opposite direction from Metropolis Part II.
I hope that in their next album they will go back to how their old stuff was and really make an album that stands out for me because all their new ones only have about 2 or 3 songs on each album that I like.
Regardless, DT is and will always be a kick ass band.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
