I'm more into Metal myself. Bands I'm currently digging: Agalloch Amon Amarth At The Gates (pre-Slaughter of The Soul era) Borknagar Dark Tranquillity (pre-Projector, more or less) Death Enslaved Extol (pre-Synergy) Fear Factory (pre-Digimortal) Finntroll Fragments of Unbecoming In Flames (pre-Clayman) Insomnium Katatonia Meshuggah Ministry Moonsorrow My Dying Bride Napalm Death Novembre Obituary Opeth Sacrilege Sepultura (before Max quit)

Yeh man Agalloch are unreal.Remind me of Opeth.

Definately goin for the 'old' Sepultura.Arise for me is in the top 5 greatest thrash albums ever recorded.love beneath the remains also.New sepultura is a joke eh?

Originally posted by DJ_Lord i know dream theater and i know the song. but thats just one song man, if they managed to make the same thing with several tunes it would be a different story, i guess that would prove part of you point.

Check out Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, the 2nd CD, it's basically all just one song divided into different tracks.
Also from their last CD, the last song Octavarium (24mins long).
That's all I can think of right now, but they can pull it off more than once for sure

Other bands that you might enjoy with that progressive sound:

Rush
Liquid Tension Experiment
Steve Vai
Jordan Rudess (especially last album)
Symphony X
Planet X

uh? your forgetting one of the greatest prog bands out there!...Queensryche!

'Operation:Mindcrime' for me is the best rock/metal/progressive/concept album ever made.Big claim i know but that album is just beyond anything else ive ever heard.Unbelieveable.

Porcupine Tree is definitely my favorite rock band right now.. Awesome stuff.

Well, I'm not a big fan of them, and besides, I'm at work, can't think of all the Prog bands I know Just mentioned the ones I like

RE: dj lord and goashem

there's no such thing as "sucky" music. it's only in the ears of the beholder as to what he/she likes or dislikes.

its a matter of opinion regardless of maturity, popularity, creativity or success.

You listen to what you like and fuck everyone else who says otherwise. Just don't trash other people for their tastes.

Originally posted by Goashem you couldnt get it more wrong. by your analysis someone like britney spears is the best artist out there. mainstream music is engineered specifically to attract a certain demographic with a simplistic catchy tune that plays throughout the song. its like a long jingle. and it has a constant promotion that "unknown" bands dont have/want. but for example take metallica. they were an "unkown" band that gone mainstream. theyre playing non conventional music yet theyre mega-popular, of course they still had to change their style to suit the demographic. so mainstream music is mostly targeted at little kids who do not yet fully appreciate music.

So true. Metallica was only good till they went really commercial though, Load/Reload sucked and Saint Anger was uter shit.

I like until it sleeps but that's pretty much it. Honestly, I don't think of Metallica as GODS, they have only one full record that mesmorizes me and that's the near-holy Master of Puppets, every song on the cd is amazing. I don't like Kill 'em all too much and Ride the Lighting is selective.
