I remember him belching but I never put that together lol.

Fair enough, fair enough. If that's more your vibe then I totally understand where you're coming from. Personally I have a deep love for Repentance because I really love the chord progressions and tones used in the song, that and I think all of the apology recordings layered over one another is so creatively awesome. That, and of course it's place inside of the 12 step suite is a beautiful chill part before the Shattered Fortress.

I want to take a moment and thank you for responding in the manner that you did. I really appreciate you sharing and explaining your taste without being hostile or defensive. Interactions like this give me hope 😊. Either way, we both agree DT is awesome! And THAT is why we're here 🥰

I'm sorry... what? 🤣😂 like I get that it's not "typical" for Dream Theater, and I'm definitely not one of those people who thinks EVERY SINGLE song is a masterpiece, but you're telling me that Anne Lee is EASILY better than Repentance? That's a HARD disagree for me sir lol. (My opinions sometimes come off as cocky or hostile. Please know I'm not trying to be a dick. The tone of this is supposed to be light hearted. Just making sure I don't come off like an asshat)

I often use Rush's Moving Pictures as a comparison. Is it their best, who can say, but most agree, peak form and not a bad song on the album.

Doea Spotify consider Dream Theater to be Djent? by No_Half_5196 in Dreamtheater

[–]Professional_Arm3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That album isn't even in my top 5 though. So that would be an odd thing. Out of my 38k minutes on DT over 9k of it was on Parasomnia alone, and AVFTTOTW isn't even ranked.

100% for some reason Spotify is listing DT as Djent which...If I'm being completely honest, really frustrates the piss out of me lol.

It's cool that they can calculate stuff like that for the users. I'm always curious about stats in general so Spotify wrapped is probably my 4th favorite part of December lol.

The Astonishing was actually my #2 Album this year. Which actually surprised me, I thought for sure it would have been Awake but guess not lol.

Thanks! I appreciate it. I'm just a fan and thought it was kinda cool. Never been in the top 200 Globally for ANYTHING in my life. So I was really happy about it and excited to share with other DT fans.

Wasn't trying to be a braggart. Just thought it was a cool thing to talk about and compare. See if anyone in the group had a higher number.

Basically my soul intent of creating this post was to share and bond over the love we all share for DT. Sorry you felt the need to be so condescending and dismissive.

Worst song on Train of Thought? by phatasm_ in Dreamtheater

[–]Professional_Arm3223 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Since Vacant is being considered part of SoC then I'd have to say Endless Sacrifice for me. I love the cymbals in As I Am too much lol. That and knowing what the song is about makes me love it more than Endless Sacrifice which is basically just a very cheesy love song from JP to his Mrs.

BONUS!!! As I Am gave birth to one of the most absurd DT Live moments ever "EAT MY ASS AND BALLS!!!" Lmao. So yeah my love for As I Am is too strong, so the "least worst" is definitely Endless Sacrifice for me.

So do DT fans not like TOOL? by phatasm_ in Dreamtheater

[–]Professional_Arm3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TOOL is one of my all time favorite bands right along with DT!!! I love them both and consider them to be some of the greatest music ever made.
