Kursch makes BG, with his awesome vocals.. just wish he could find some better band members and some better lyrics.

Listen to DT live stuff, solos are Nsane.... vocals are gr8 live and the 20 minute solos are some of the best ive ever heard.

The live Mordred's song, Bright eyes and bards song recordings turned out gr8 tho!

both are some of the best sounds in rock and prog. metal today!

I've found my lover.

BG is amazing, i know, i have a cd of theirs, i listen to it all the time, but their music all sounds the same. Every DT cd is totally different.

When Dream and Day Unite- 80's metal with amazing technical skill

Images and Words- The classic example of Prog rock, with major jazz influences

Awake- more metal, but extremely melodic and progressive, along with amazing keyboard solos.

A Change of Seasons- Cant not like ACOS, amazing 23 min song, along with the rest of the album full of Led Zeppelin covers.

Falling Into Infinity- amazing songs, tad bit of a sell-out cd, but song really good songs on it

Scenes from a Memory- You have to respect a concept album like this, I mean, No band can write a whole complex story like this and write a whole album on it. The songs are so diverse, from solo guitar and singing, to extreme metal. There are also some amazing melodic parts.

Train of Thought- their most metal album yet, but amazing lyrics and really powerful, amazing cd.

There ya have it folks, Jotun's DT album review.

[Pyro]

Scenes from a memory and awake are really the only great albums DT has.

And lyrics wise, the only decent ones are found there.

WOW! WOW! WOW!

Images and Words > All of human existance.

Dream Theater- Take the Time

The unbroken spirit
Obscured and disquiet
Finds clearness this trial
demands
And at the end of this day sighs
an anxious relief
For the fortune lies still in his
hands

If there's pensive fear, a
wasted year
A man must learn to cope
If his obsession's real,
Suppression that he feels must
turn to hope

Life is no more assuring than
love
(It's time to take the time)
There are no answers from
voices above
(It's time to take the time)
You're fighting the weight of
the world
And no one can save you this
time
Close your eyes
You can find all you need in
your mind

I close my eyes
And feel the water rise around
me
Drown the bear of time
Let my senses fall away
I can see much clearer now,
I'm blind

Find all you need in your mind
If you take the time


and Pyro, the whole thing in SFAM is taken from the song "Metropolis Part I: The Miracle and the Sleeper" which is on I&W. All the songs on SFAM reference this song.

The smile of dawn
Arrived in early May
She carried a gift from her
home
The night shed a tear
To tell her of fear
And of sorrow and pain
She'll never outgrow

Death is the first dance, eternal

There's no more freedom
The both of you will be
confined to this mind

I was told there's miracle for
each day that I try
I was told there's a new love
that's born for each one that
has died
I was told there'd be no one to
call on when I feel alone and
afraid
I was told if you dream of the
next world
You'll find yourself swimming
in a lake of fire
As a child, I thought I could
live without pain without
sorrow
As a man I've found it's all
caught up with me
I'm asleep yet I'm so afraid

Somewhere like a scene from a
memoryThere's a picture worth a
thousand words
Eluding stares from faces
before me
It hides away and will never be
heard of again

Deceit is the second without end

The city's cold blood teaches us
to survive
Just keep my heart in your eyes
and we'll stay alive

The third arrives...

Before the leaves have fallen
Before we lock the doors
There must be the third and
last dance
This one will last forever
Metropolis watches and
thoughtfully smiles
She's taken you to your home

It can only take place
When the struggle between
our children has ended
Now the Miracle and the
Sleeper know that the third
is love

Love is the Dance of Eternity

you dont know ANY other DT fans than, because if you go to the DT forums, EVERYONE loves I&W over SFAM

[Short Hand]

ok can we discuss a band that doesn't suck ? Sure they can play the guitar quite well but fuck me, How much mainstream success have these guyz seen ? if a band like Simple Plan and Good Charlotte can get their asses around how come these guyz can't ? Honestly I listhend and I treid to like this stuff but it was generic and sounded so bland. I like the Liquid Tension Stuff but when these guyz add lyrics to their music I get the shits, then i run to the bathroom and blow my bowels like a kettle blowing steam. oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo:

Short, you probably heard 2 songs by them, you cant judge them by that. the reason they arent mainstream is because they dont want to be mainstream, or at least they dont put in the effort to become mainstream. they make music because they love making music and expressing themselves, not for the money like GC and Simple Plan.
