Here's a pic of MM and his monster.

Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

Ok, I gotta be honest here. I don't even get why DT bothered to invite Aquiles. Angra is 100% power metal, and DT is 0%.
Nonsense.
DT's sound is very much rooted in power metal. Today, I'd say DT is at least 25% power metal.

rumborak



I have zero tolerance for power metal. Trust me, DT is not power metal.

rumborak


I agree with Rumborak... DT is not power metal... Amon Armath is power metal.

Hey Steve. One of your epic DT wallpapers with all five members, but now with Mangini. Make it happen! ;)

DT isn't really power metal, but they do go in that direction occasionally. JLB's early vocals are fairly power metal-influenced. And some SC/BCSL has a power metal vibe.

Plus, power metal can take some fairly progressive drum work, so with Priester, it's a moot point. It's sure closer to DT than Roddy's work, or even Wildoer's (minus SI).
Yeah, I have no idea what the cakeless person in that analogy is meant to be eating. If he's got some sort of cake substitute, it should really have been worked into the narrative at some point. As it stands, the options are:

  • Hoard a cake just to stare blankly into its doughy edifice.
  • Make futile chewing motions with your mouth while starving to death.

I have to say, after seeing that pic, my opinion on whether Mike is a good fit for DT is changing for the worse.

Eheeemeemehemehemeeheme what?  One of the coolest parts of MP being in the band was the crazy drum kits he came up with.  Mangini is carrying on one of my favorite DT traditions with style!

I'll wait until the new album to form my opinion on him.

But I honestly don't care as along as they continue to make music and tour.

I mean, the dude has had like 6 months to prepare now, and yet he STILL has not grown a beard and dyed it some unnatural color.  What kind of DT drummer is he?
