Satriani > everybody

[QUOTE=BoboTheRagingHobo]Satriani > Vai and DT combined...


I love Dream Theater, but Satch has something about his music which capitivates me when I listen to it. And Vai, I find him to be flat out fu[SIZE=2]ckin'[/SIZE] boring.[/QUOTE]

Agreed. Vai's music really isn't that good. I could never really get into it.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]DT has a lot headache music. But they also have albums like A Change Of Seasons and Scenes From A Memory which are brilliant songwriting.[/QUOTE]
Yes has 10 times as many good albums though. Literally.

Of course they do! :) *only has Fragile and The Yes Album*

Yes is the offical definition of Prog ;)

well, I was really hoping to top 1000 posts tonight, but i'm afraid I'm just too tired to stay up lol

Metallica is prog metal since when?

I think Vai as a performer rocks, because he's ridiculously fun to watch, and he looks like he's having a blast. In that sense, he's really not song-oriented. It's all about flash and entertainment to him. Satriani is truly a far superior songwriter, but I still have a lot respect for any man that can swing the guitar by its whammy bar and then do an extremely ripping lick very very cleanly. And I think he shreds and wanks much more melodically than, say, George Lynch.

I just thought they were heavy metal, traditional at lengthiest explanation. How are they prog. metal?

Meh, people just say that because they had long songs before the black album and knew how to harmonize in 3rds.

that has nothing directly to do with prog though. its just good musicianship.

Omg lolrz Ride The Lightnin is teh prog!

Indeed. That surprised me, since it is usually such a good source :(

That's like saying joey jordison is a drum proffesor just cuz he can drum fast.

Anyone with 2 ****ing months of practise can drum fast. Most people prefer not to because it sounds bad.

that was partially my point.

hehe, yeah.

That was just for the slow ones...

:rolleyes: yea we've got a few of them, don't we.

Don't make fun :(

:evil:

Oh, I get it now...

haha, yeah, anybody see that drum solo clip DetNosnip posted a while back? What a sloppy sloppy solo. It uses the same fill over and over again too.

Plenty.

Less in rock and metal than in places like say... THE PIT.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]Plenty.

Not much less though, sadly. The best places are places like A&I.

And jazz and Other too.

The metalheads and Punks aren't generally the smart ones.

I've soooo got 1000 posts now. Im happy. Now I can go to bed. holy crap im tired. see you all tomorrow.

I should probably go to bed too.

Goodnight mx :wave:

Night, man. Congrats on your stars! :chug:

I would'nt say they are not "smart", more so not open minded then any thing. Also all the metalhead regulars here are fairly intelligent.

Metal music is arguably "smarter" than most of the other popular music types on these rock forums, and since much of modern metal have what most would call "progressive" influences, that makes it even more so. I would say that a lot of metalheads are more open-minded to other styles as well, or at least the non-mainstream-metal-oriented ones.

No. People here in R&M are pretty generally close minded. Mention a nu-metal band if you don't believe me. Some people like the music, and they get flamed for even [i]liking[/i] it. The ones who say it is the most talented stuff ever, well, they deserve it, but the ones who just like it...no, kids here are pretty immature imo.

All right, well maybe that's just me, lol.

Yes, exactly...but that does not mean they are not intelligent though.

Of course not, but immaturity can be more annoying than stupidity at times. I think that generally intelligent posters also act maturely though. Generally.

Immaturity is greatly more annoying than stupidity. Get a kid that combines immaturity with stupidity, though, and my fun is set for the afternoon.

EDIT: When do intelligent posters act immaturely, zep? Let's have some examples, please! :lol:

omg, u r such a fagzor i b3t u l13k 1t 1n t3h butt lolz!!!!!11

See: The Pit

Seriously though, people should act more mature in here :p

Mmm, yeah....just a bit.

"Mature" and "The Pit" shouldn't be used in the same phrase. That place is just one massive spamfest.

Hi there, Lep. I think we're the only ones still up, unless Bobo decides to stick his head in here.

I was pointing out that even intelligent posters act immaturely there :)

Yes, that was the jist of what I was saying...
