Dream Theater blows most of your favorite bands out of the water. My opinion? Sure. But it's fact. Dream Theater has so much more musical talent than every band you listed. =X You an at least spell it right, as well. 4thoseabout2rock: Awesome list. hmm i disagree, i listened to a few of their songs, and they didnt seem like anything special to me. sure they have a lot of musical talent, good for them.. but the sound of their music is nothing.. if theyre really as great as you say they are why arent they famous? and dont say because people have bad taste these days

They sell-out shows like hell. They've gone on tours to Japan, Europe, and North America. Non-famous bands don't do that. You're thinking of bands that are famous due to the mainstream producing them. They are progressive. Progressive is an acquired taste. And progressive is not radio friendly. Your average music listener chooses to listen to music they can play or music focused around the vocals as the lead part of the band. I could go on for forever, but there's another matter that needs my tending. Nothing special? Tell that to Mike Portnoy. He'll eat you. You may not like their sound, but it varies too much to tell from a few songs. I can listen to all their albums straight through, and each one builds up and then some. Evolution at it's prime. But anyway. I don't have time to type more. And I could. I could prove with facts that Dream Theater is better than most bands. I just don't have that time.

Flogging Molly is nowhere on these lists!!! WHY?! they rock. they're an irish punk band, and there's a lot of meaning in their lyrics. check them out, okay? just give punk another chance, because they're not all rock or rap wannabes. rikku711

yeah, but earlier in the conversation ppl were all: "punk is dead. it's mostly wannabe rock bands and rap and hip-hop..." and that really bugs me, 'cause they're not. i WILL say, though, that a heck of a lot a punk bands ARE wannabe's or they're all ooooooooooo <o.o> look at me! i'm so sad and depressed and suicidal!!! (*gags*) but it does get old listening to just that and nuthin else, so i was way happy when i discovered Flogging Molly in Hot Topic with my sister one day. (you know that store right? one can never tell on these message boards)

pssst.... jimi hendrix actually IS dead. and punk never died, it merely went dromant in the 80's only to revive again now that we have a poor governmental situation. And one last thing you can get a lot of good shirts from hot topic example: i got a pink floyd shirt there, one with the crossed hammers on the front

They are famous. They sell-out shows like hell. They've gone on tours to Japan, Europe, and North America. Non-famous bands don't do that. You're thinking of bands that are famous due to the mainstream producing them. They are progressive. Progressive is an acquired taste. And progressive is not radio friendly. Your average music listener chooses to listen to music they can play or music focused around the vocals as the lead part of the band. I could go on for forever, but there's another matter that needs my tending. Nothing special? Tell that to Mike Portnoy. He'll eat you.

But anyway. I don't have time to type more. And I could. I could prove with facts that Dream Theater is better than most bands. I just don't have that time. Don't think just because I don't like Dream Theatre means I'm impartial to musical talent. Sure, they can play. Sure, John Petrucci holds the record for most notes played in a second. But that still does not dispell the fact that they do not rock. They have no groove, no soul. They have nothing to say. As far as I'm concerned, John petrucci is a wanker, and any good guitar player could put as much soul into one note than he could in a whole solo. Another thing they lack is songwriting skills. I could go on about this all day, but I'll leave it at that. As for mike portnoy, he is a good drummer, but his statement that ghost notes are a crucial part of playing drums and that everyone should play ghost notes is a crock of shit. You see, in addition to have played guitar for 6 years, I've also been a drummer and a bassist for a good chunk of my life, so don't think I'm just some passerby know it all retard that doesn't know what hes talking about. Don't even get me started on progressive music. I will eat you any day of the week on any instrument. And I can still listen to punk rock and get away with it.
