"Metropolis, Pt. 1" - Dream Theater

by Max on Tue 01 Dec 2009 12:14 PM PST | Permanent Link

Dream Theater is slowly but surely winning me over.

I find some of their lyrics trite and awkward, and I think their lead singer at times comes off as an 80s hair band reject.

But holy hell, they are pretty much unrivaled as instrumentalists.

Watch a fanvid for "Metropolis, Pt. 1" on YouTube.

Watch Part One of a live performance. - Part Two

Introduction

Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.

Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas.

My Own Noise

Can't sing my way out of a wet paper bag, but I play a few instruments with varying degrees of proficiency. As such, sometimes I record my own music. You can hear it here.

Latest song: "Take Five" (Dave Brubeck Quartet cover)
