As some people on these forums know, I hate Dream Theater and their wankery.

Musicianship? Dream Theater hands down. No contest Ability to write catchy songs and memorable songs? Queensryche hands down.
I've always loved the level of musicianship in Dream Theater, they are masters of their craft. But I find that largely they aren't that good at wrting actual songs with good hooks and melody lines. I often get bored after awhile of listening to DT. There are exceptions there, I do really love some of DT's stuff I'm talking generally here.
Quuensryche has above average players in it but are far better at writing a good catchy song that you can sing along to or just tap your foot to. I've liked Queensryche for quite some time. First time I saw them was in 1986 on the Rage For Order tour, they were opening for Ozzy. Been a fan ever since."There's a place where Krokus plays Stadiums?

Both rock out loud, however, I personally like Dream Theater more. Queensryche is currently my fourth favorite prog metal band behind, in order from my favorite to my least favorite, Sonata Arctica, Machinae Supremacy and Dream Theater.
Green Grass and High Tides can go jump in a lake and DIE.

I'm going with Queensr˙che. I never really got too much into Dream Theater. Admittedly, I haven't given them too much of the old college try, but I haven't liked much of what I heard.

Queensryche from what I heard(song wise) is fairly good but I'm siding with Dream Theater on this one. I got more knowledge of their songs and so far it's solid so I'm picking them for now.(That could easily change in the future).
