I'm somewhat along those lines. I dug
Images & Words and
Awake, but didn't enjoy other works such as
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence and
Systematic Chaos. Plus, their riffs just don't do it for me and the keyboards often feel over-the-top. Not to mention that Portnoy's drumming often feels rather average and Petrucci's solos rather devoid of feeling.
Again, that's just my opinion. They have Mangini on drums now, but I could care less.
