| Some Meshuggah Fanboy Just Told Me Dream Theater Aren't Progressive Metal
Oh my GOD. It's getting harder to stand kids, I feel old before my time. This kid said "Meshuggah put on a better show than any other progressive metal band out there", and I thought I'd engage him in conversation- his opinion seemed valid. So all I said was I wasn't so sure of that, a lot of quality prog metal bands put on good shows. Now, I thought I'd just use Dream Theater as an example. Big name band, easily found on youtube, etc. Linked to them playing "In The Name Of God" live. He replies with just this: "Dream Theater isn't progressive metal". *flips table over* And I know it's hilarious. But... for frig's sake. | | 1 |  | Meshuggah

08.12.12 | sixdegrees: It made me feel.. happy... Like... like... I could look at myself in the mirror, finally.
queefman: Hey, give it time, maybe I'll get in trouble for this. I made it for fun, and I'm not actually hating on Meshuggah. I'm just annoyed at kids rewriting history and ignoring a genre's history. | CutMan
08.12.12 | You know, other than your use of "fags", you make a strong point. | CutMan
08.12.12 | Yeah, for the record, I made this list in good fun, I don't generally make lists or things just complaining about people. But I just kinda felt like doing this for once. | queefman

08.12.12 | dream theater fans are some of the most butthurt people ever | RooseveltsGhost
08.12.12 | ive never met a real DT fan who wasn't respectable, approachable, friendly and informed. This, of course, does not include the internet where no one is approachable or friendly | someguest
08.12.12 | can dream theater play guitars with 20 strings? | CutMan
08.12.12 | Hey, I'm not butthurt on behalf of Dream Theater. I don't think they're the best prog metal band out there. If anyone hates them, that's fine with me. I'm just amazed that kids think that to be "progressive metal" you have to be "djent".
I did inquire further, for the record, but he seems to have decided to just disappear... Oh well. | AStableReference
08.12.12 | Talking musical genres with kids online isn't a good idea. | bach

08.13.12 | Nah, unfortunately an acquaintance on Facebook. I do mixing and mastering and engineer-ish work for this one guy- or am trying to- and this is a bandmate of that guy. He... is just something else. He's also why I can't seem to get anything done for the band. | Trebor.
08.13.12 | Hey I like dream theater | CutMan
08.14.12 | Well, I mean, so do I. |
