Good choice, that was my first album as well. After that I purchased When a Day and Dream Unite. At first I thought it was average, but It grew on me a lot and I love it now!

[QUOTE=Jimmypageguitarhero]I bought Train of Thought Yestaday, It's the first Dream Theatre album I've bought, And I'm all new to the band, It impressed me massivly, the heaviness of the tone, yet all the exquisite(sp) playing of instruments

My favourite song is Either As I Am or Stream of Consiousness[/QUOTE]


Thats a great album. Check out Awake and 6DOIT if you like ToT.

When Dream and Day Unite is such an underated album. If you haven't heard it its is your duty as a Dream Theater fan to go out and buy it. If you aren't gonna buy at least listen to YSTE Jam, Fortune in Lies and The Killing Hand and see how great early Dream Theater is.

octavarium isn't that great

[QUOTE=westknife]octavarium isn't that great[/QUOTE]
if youre talking about the album, i agree. but 'sacrificed sons' is a great track.

I realy need to get ToT. I got ACOS on Satruday...it's alright.

has anyone ever noticed that LaBrie attempts to do Black Metal shrieks on ToT? :lol:

on In The Name Of God right after the techno thing, at 7:20 there is 'the justifying violence, teaching hatred in the name of God' part, and if you listen closely you hear the vocals are dubble mixed, and LaBrie screams out his entire guts by performing some weird shriek like screaming, it's mixed in really soft, but you can make it out if you pay attention to it

^ I actually think thats kinda cool... I wouldn't really call that black metal either.

would this there best song to download

!!!!!!!!!!

Which song?

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]^ I actually think thats kinda cool... I wouldn't really call that black metal either.[/QUOTE]


no way it's BM, but I said it sounded like he made an attempt to :p
he sounds hysterical while screaming though.

and I love the song, so don't think I have hard feeling for DT, they're great!

speaking of the ITNOG screaming, here's a clip from the recording of ToT video, where James is doing that Mustaine-esque "these tormented ghosts of yesterday" part, before he gets it wrong at the end:

Yeah, I love that album; There are some amazing instrumentals and solos

That Dying Soul effect thing is sweet... Mustaine meets Satan.

I do think that sounds really cool as well, ITNOG is one of DT's best songs.

Thats the only time I've really heard LaBrie scream except for on Octavarium.

[QUOTE=red barchetta]'sacrificed sons' is a great track.[/QUOTE]

The lyrics are so cliche it's disgusting. The melody is quite nice but than the instrumental section kills off any type of emotion the song had.

sacrificed sons is really In the Name Of God part II, which is a broing attempt to a sequal. the lyrics to ITNOG are so much better.

the song itself rocks though (Sons)

hey if this has been done already in this thread, i'm sorry, but i'm not gonna look through all 99 pages to find out, so here it goes.

when someone says "dream theater", what is the first song that pops into your head? for me its either dance of eternity or as i am.

I'm going to see dream theater in the gigantour on wednesday and I'm so f#cking excited.
I'll tell you all about it when I get back

It's weird that I think of Images and Words to describe Dream Theater because in all honestly, they never made another album that sounded like that. Their sound is very different now.
