The thing about progressive metal is that too many bands fall into the trap of just being technical, complex, showing off, while forgetting to write actually memorable songs

Enslaved is good, its truly hard to find good pro metal.

Good prog metal is hard to find, I think. It's rarely preferable to classic prog rock. Enslaved is very good prog metal though

@Netzach: agreed I dont feel much into DT, gotta try more and dig more prog.

No, I think DT should spend less time practicing instrument acrobatics and more time learning to write good songs

@Netzach: yeah, Im enjoying Second life syndrome. Do you like Dream THeater can you recommend me good album from DT to go ?

Riverside are cool, especially the ADHD album
