Dream Theater is one of the most overrated bands to ever exist.

Overrated? Maybe.

They get hailed as pretty much the epitome of Prog Metal, yet what is considered by many to be their magnum opus (Awake) was more snore inducing than anything else that came before.
The first album was decent, but was mostly pure Rush worship.Despite all my rage, I'm still just Nicolas Cage

Maybe it's just the stuff I've heard, but Dream Theater to me seems like they just take the compositional conventions of classical music, and shoe-horn it into typical pop music vere-chorus structure, while completely ignoring the last few centuries of musical progress to come out of jazz and blues influence.

Not to bash Dream Theater fans, but my friend is one of them. It seems that most people that listen to Dream Theater think they are elite because they understand how complex their playing style is. I enjoy Dream Theater but to say they're the most talented band ever is a little over the top.

Muse [x] (more)

I would agree with Dream Theater being overrated.

A good song live, though, is advent of panurge. Record solo rules.

People seem to go by others opinions way too often.
