Puppets pwns Kill em all IMO...

nowitzki 11-29-2005 06:05 AM

I probably find myself listening to Kill Em All more often, but MoP is a better album.

Metallica are good, up until oooh, halfway through AJFA...then it goes downhill.

Nah. Up until the end of the 8th song of AJFA.

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]Metallica are good, up until oooh, halfway through AJFA...then it goes downhill.[/QUOTE]

Some of AJFA is good, and I like most of Metallica's instrumentals a lot, as well as some songs from their first four albums, but over all I'd say they're one of the most overrated bands ever. Tons of metal bands are leagues above them, and don't get half as much attention.

Lord Abortion 11-29-2005 02:24 PM

/\/\ total agreement.

They have some good songs after AJFA, but no more than 8 or 10.

the thing is, not even the biggest metallica fanboys thought that st. anger was good :p

nowitzki 11-29-2005 03:21 PM

Yet it still managed to win a grammy :confused:
It is quite simply awful.

ghettoeddo 11-29-2005 06:03 PM

isnt' this a DT thread?

well, just to conform and jump on the bandwagon..

metallica was actually one of my favorite bands. and then i found dream theater. i don't think i've listened to a full metallica album or even song all the way through in months...

if anyone's got info on this new DVD for release, holler cuz im sure all of us would like to get our filthy hands on this sure-to-be gem :]

ghettoeddo 11-29-2005 06:06 PM

and a question...

8vm is the only album they used an actual orchestra correct?
i swear there are some parts in songs like 6DOIT (overture especially) and vacant (the cello) where the strings sound authentic. i mean, i know technology is awesome, but no technology can truly emulate the tone and variation in vibrato speed/color.

GenuineImitation 11-29-2005 06:11 PM

I love early Metallica stuff, including the black album. I think their newer stuff is ok, but not great. Escpecially St. Anger.

Lord Abortion 11-29-2005 06:31 PM

Anyone know where I can get a non-SFAM shirt?

I'll have to Ebay it...

bwnstl 11-29-2005 07:49 PM

[QUOTE=red barchetta]the thing is, not even the biggest metallica fanboys thought that st. anger was good :p[/QUOTE]

Actually, the album was fantastic except for one GLARING thing that ruined the entire album and everything good about it: the production quality. Otherwise it was a solid release.

[url]www.infinity1.com[/url] has another DT shirt. They have a small DT shirt collection though.

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]Come on...Puppets is nowhere near as good as Kill 'em All...[/QUOTE]
Ride The Lightning > No Life 'Til Leather > Kill 'em All > Master ...

But they're all equally amazing albums ...

I know a real cellist is used on Vacant. I'm not sure about when a full orchestra has been used, but I have a feeling there could also be one on Finally Free.

When I checked on Ebay, there were quite a few TOT tour shirts. And some I&W shirts...nice.

6doit uses an actual orchestra too, it was conducted by mr. Ruddes.
and the Cello on vacant is authentical too.

and of course can't forget the sax on Another Day (not an orchestra but still awesome)

I always pictured it as a woman playing the sax but it was a bloke.

clarinets have a lower sound.

Jev 11-30-2005 10:59 AM

It says in the booklet Saxaphone on Another Day played by some dude. Not exact wording.

Lord Abortion 11-30-2005 12:43 PM

Bugger, I just lent mine out to a Mate, in an attempt to get him to love DT, so I can't check.

scenesfromatheater 11-30-2005 04:08 PM

He better like 'em ...or else...

Lord Abortion 11-30-2005 04:11 PM

Tell him yourself, he's [I]Shadow_Stalker[/I] on here...

Jev 11-30-2005 04:11 PM

I lent mine out for about 4 days. It was a sad 4 days for me.

I have it on my comp and minidisk...I'll cope, right?

ghettoeddo 12-01-2005 01:52 AM

got all my DT on my iPod nano :] they suck...4GB only. DT takes up a good chunk of it.

where do you get smileys? been awhile since i've been here.

Lord Abortion 12-01-2005 04:08 AM

I'm getting a 20GB creative Zen for Christmas, DT will be one of the first things on there :D

Jev 12-01-2005 09:21 AM

I need an MP3 player. The last one I got angry at and broke.

P.S. Thanks for the rep Ollie.

[QUOTE=red barchetta]clarinets have a lower sound.[/QUOTE]

No they don't they are higher than saxaphones.

The guy who plays it is called Berlinger or something I think.

i swear they don't...

depends on what type of sax you're talking about though. alto saxs have a much higher sound than clarinets

scenesfromatheater 12-01-2005 04:32 PM

Suprano, alto, tenor, baritone...who gives a jefferys anyway?

Jay Beckenstein. It says on the Live in Tokyo DVD. And in the album.
