I enjoy a lot of SC despite every song having problems, BC&SL was great, ADTOE was pretty solid too, s/t was meh. So at least they're not overtly sucking now or anything

In The Presence of Enemies 1 & 2 and Ministries is great. Nice analysis by the way. I completely agree with that and you could also argue after so many albums, the main writing force of the album, Petrucci, finally got comfortable with a certain style and that's all he wishes to do from now on

I agree with ADTOE they wanted to modernized their classic sound (which makes it their best album in years imo), but on the s/t to me, they're just trying to create a new, even more modern DT sound. Problem is that just doesn't work

They're really nostalgic, aren't they? Praying that they got that out of their system with the s/t

The worst thing is that this is probably what they'll actually do next

Lol, I'd be well hyped if they actually announced that. It really can't get much worse

A collab with Periphery (considering Petrucci's nephew is in Periphefuck it could actually happen)

That wouldn't be too bad. You could end up getting the best of both worlds

Yeah but the best of Periphery is worse than the worst of DT imo

They're not the worst band in the world or anything, just consistently average. Much better than DT's worst songs like I
Walk Beside You

Periphery have some great songs but a collab might be iffy

I think it could work out quite well if they did, but only if both bands take a new direction rather than just doing a cut and paste job

Yeah I know they're not that bad, I just really don't dig them. I don't like how prog metal has
evolved and transformed over the years. I'm not being nostalgic here, I'm not saying the new bands are
bad because they're modern. It's just that to me, metal in general is not a genre that has developped
lots of new ideas and interesting subgenres. Of course there still are a lot of more underground
awesome metal bands, but metalcore, nu-metal and their likes are so unoriginal and generic. And I just
don't like how the newer prog metal wave has been influenced by those new subgenres. And Periphery to
me kind of represent perfectly the new wave of prog metal

A lot of Black Metal is going through its own take on progressive metal and it's actually very exciting stuff. Sadly, the popular stuff is kinda bland. If they did collab, they should take a similar approach that Storm Corrosion took, just perhaps not as extreme. I think both different things to input which could make a great album, but I don't think the average DT fan would be up for that

From what DT and Periphery have been doing they seem to have no restraint or sense of subtlety or self-awareness so I
find it highly unlikely, much as I would love it to be successful

Yeah, I think I'm being too optimistic. I'd pretty much take anything though
