This is a fucking masterpiece, and their only good album. Prove me wrong. Protip: You can't.
Funny how their latest albums make the dreadful debut album seem like a masterpiece

It fucking invented Prog Metal. People ignore it just because muh LaBrie

>awful dated production
>songwriting not yet as developed as on Images and Words
>cringeworthy cover art
>no singing castrated chihuahua on vocals yet
absolutely no point in listening to this
>>63225373
(not true by the way)
>>63224763
their best albums are images and words and awake

I'm listening to Dream Theater purely ironically. This album is not nearly involutarily entertaining enough without the LaCamembert vocals. I'll just pass on it and listen to Systematic Chaos once again. :^)

Here's the proof you're a pleb

>implying that In the Presence of Enemies isn't the unintentionally funniest thing they've done until The Astinishing shit

King Crimson and Rush invented prog metal.
>>63225827
> Hard rock = Metal
>>63225827
Yeah, KC's Wetton trilogy were the first prog metal albums
>>63225834
If Black Sabbath invented metal, KC and Rush invented prog metal. The fact it got heavier doesn't change that. Besides, Dream Theater really isn't much heavier.
>>63225108
That's not Queensryche
>>63225855
King Crimson played heavy metal, but they never fused it with progressive rock.
Rush were never metal.
>>63225855
Oh, and Black Sabbath certainly didn't invent metal.
Clear Light did it in 1967, and some other bands like Vincebus something (can't remember the name, from 1968), Pink Floyd, and King Crimson played it before 1970.

> "Wow this is genuine prog metal"
>>63225917
>That's not Queensryche
Queensryche isn't nearly unintentionally funny enough
>>63225917
That's not Fate's Warning
>>63225942
You mean Blue Cheer with their album Vincebus Eruptum, but all they did was playing Eddie Cochran with distortion
>>63225967
It was.
Also
>implying Dream Theater didn't started with Glam influences too
>>63226122
Yeah, that one.
Still metal though.
>>63226001
No idea

Eh, that ain't so bad. I actually like the groove.
Scenes From a Memory > Images and Words > Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence > Awake > Octavarium > When Dream and Day Unite > Train of Thought > Everything from Systematic chaos after > falling into infinity
DT have been bad longer than they've been good for years now
>>63226134
Not saying there weren't Glam influences in Dream Theater, but there were also prog influences enough strong to label the group as "Progressive", unlike Queensryche.
>>63225942
That's not Deep Purple.

You mean Fates Warning
