Pros: Intense but intriguing storyline, amazing musicianship all around, excellent songwriting, cohesive work as a whole. Cons: Absolutely nothing.
It's funny how we always discover our favorite bands. How did I discover this favorite band? Through the English dub of an anime. I've always been a fan of anime, and like many did, started out with Dragon Ball Z as one of my favorites (not a ...
“...Close your eyes... you feel yourself begin to drift away, into a more and more relaxed state of mind. You are in a safe place, where nothing can harm you. As I count back from ten to one, you will slowly become more calm and relaxed. Ten...” ...
Pros: Um, everything? Cons: Go away before I taunt you a second time.
Dream Theater is one of those lovely progressive metal bands who challenge the ears and mind with their amazing talents and yet manage to remain fairly accessible to the novice prog-metal/rock listener. The glorious quintet met at Berklee School ...
Pros: AWESOME Music, Great concept album, did I mention the music is great? :) Cons: Hmmm...can't think of any.
I've only had the Scenes from a Memory album for a year or two, and overall, it's my favorite progressive rock album to date. Why, you ask? I'd be happy to explain why. Read on. :) There may be some spoilers in this paragraph, so use judgement here. ...
Pros: Unique, excellent, huge amount of talent for each of them, everything is fabulous. Cons: Why must one person sing 5 characters with no distinguishing characteristics?
Scenes From a Memory is, in my opinion, one of the few essential rock albums of all time. They blend vocals, guitars, electronics, drums, and keyboards seamlessely, as to create a sound that's difficult to match (unless you're a master musician). Each ...
Before starting this review I would like to say that DREAM THEATER OWNS THE SOUL OF YOUR FAVORITE BAND Ok. It was around 8 or 9 months ago I was browsing on Metal Message boards that I saw a lot of topics about Dream theater, so I downloaded ...
Pros: As a band, you can't flow better than this one does. Cons: It's Dream Theater; there are no cons through the eyes of this reviewer.
I first was introduced to Dream Theater when I was around 12 years old (I'm 17 now). I remember hearing the solo in Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven, and thinking, wow, that is AWESOME. And so my quest to become a great guitarist commenced. ...
Pros: Contains some of Dream Theater's best work. Amazing Songwriting. Warm Production. Cons: Drums are echoey at times.
If you talk to the average Dream Theater fan and ask them what there favorite album is, you will most likely hear them to respond by saying "Images and Words" or, "Scenes From A Memory." While there are many fans out there that have other ...
Pros: new keyboardist... Jordan Rudess. Meaningful lyrics with great story... 100% progressive metal. Cons: What could be wrong with Dream Theater?
A Dream Theater CD is considered rare in my country... and I got this disc for only 425 Pesos. That's a fair price! I've only known the band Dream Theater since I enter college. I bought a compilation CD full of powerful ballads and it contains songs ...
Dream Theater's 1999 release, Scenes From A Memory is at once both their most thematically ambitious project and their most accessible. If that sounds like a mutually exclusive prospect, you are correct. And that's what makes Scenes From A...
Pros: Some of the best melodies and musicians found in metal today. Cons: None
This is the album on which Dream Theater not only apologized for the mediocre "Falling into Infinity," but they also made an album that sounded completely different from anything they had done before. It is definitely a step toward modern rock, but they...
Pros: A whole new sound like none before... Cons: Never any with Dream Theater! Sorry.. Just none!
With now three successful albums behind them, what is Dream Theater to do? That's right. They release another album which packs even more talent with a whole new style and sound. Nothing can compare to the sound of this album!
Pros: Perfect balance of music, lyrics, and storytelling Cons: Highly addictive - I can't stop listening!!
It's so difficult to write about Dream Theater's music, because I just can't seem to find enough superlatives. Every time I think they can't possibly release anything better, they do. When Falling Into Infinity came out, I feared that the loss of...
Another fantastic album by the most creative and talented bands existing. Anyone who likes Dream Theater will be blown away by this new recording, set as an Opera to tell a story of a young girl (Victoria) who was killed.
Pros: A Compelling Concept Album, Great Sound Cons: None
