Hey,

i seem to be well known on this site already thanks to acidrainlte....

but anyway, my name is Iain, i'm from scotland, and my favourite bands are DT and A7X.

i also run the unofficial avenged sevenfold forum over at https://chapter-four.info

we've recently merged with another a7x site called a7xfans, so now we're even bigger.

my favourite DT album is probably Awake.

Welcome to the DTF. Yes it's true, we've heard of you.

I've been lurking around here for a few days, and I thought I should go ahead and introduce myself.
I was introduced to DT a little over a year ago, and now I own just about everything they've done.(I'm glad to know there's more people like me out there.  ;D)
Anywho, as for my username, it's a pretty obvious combination of Metropolis and Polaris(As in the Megadeth song: Rust in Peace......Polaris)

So.......yeah....um....Hi.

i just popped my DTF cherry (oi, what an odd image) in the Devin Townsend thread, so i should probably make the "official introduction post" and say hi.

i've been into Dream Theater since SDOIT came out, and have followed the band on and off since then; somewhere in between SC and BCSL, i became truly obsessed (not sure why the timing, but it's when Octavarium fully clicked for me, so that sparked a whole new dive into the band's music). i'd rank SDOIT and SFAM at the top of my favourites, i guess, with Octavarium and I&W close behind.

my other obsessions are Dev, Ulver, Porcupine Tree, Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead, Meshuggah, Moonspell, and Tool, among many others.

Sounds like you'll fit in pretty well here :tup

I hope our fanatic circle jerking in the Devy thread doesn't scare you off. We're just really excited for the two new albums. :lol

Hi!  I've posted a bit in GMD but thought I should officially introduce myself here.  I've lurked around here for about a year, and I've been a DT fan since '93.  Also a fan of progressive music/metal/whatever so I'm looking forward to throwing in my $.02 from time to time!

Hey everyone!

I just found this site recently (I signed up feb. 9) and started posting/viewing threads during the past week or so..
And I gotta say, I love this site  :metal

Seems like you're all mostly familiar with each other, which I think is pretty awesome  ;D

So I felt the need to introduce myself a little.
The name's Aramatheis (obviously), I am Canadian, and I'm a pretty big Dream Theater fan (also fairly obvious). I like pretty much everything DT has ever done, apart from a few select songs (off of FII). I'm also a big fan of Flyleaf, Finger Eleven, Journey, System of a Down, All That Remains, Amon Amarth, Demon Hunter, The Eagles, Trivium, August Burns Red, Shadows Fall, Slipknot, Paramore, Rhapsody of Fire, Styx, Queen and a bunch of others  :)

I wish I could say that I'm an aspiring musician.. but sadly I don't play an instrument. :'(
I am, however, a big fan of the drums, and really wish I could learn to play them.
So while I like to think that I'm a huge Dream Theater fan, I hardly know anything about the technical/musical aspect of their music.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to being a member of this wonderful site!

wow i forgot there was a thread about this and i have 80 posts, i should have done this the day i signed up lol...

one of my friend introduced me to Dream Theater while i was in high school (around 2008) but when Black Clouds and Silver Linings came out i was amazed how these awesome musicians can write awesome music:)... and since that album i've been fan of them  :metal  and it's also my favorite album by them

of course i listen to some other bands than Dream Theater:)... here's some of the list what i mainly listens

01. Rhapsody of Fire
02. EPICA
03. Kamelot
04. Symphony X
05. Nightwish
06. Haggard
07. Metallica
08. Megadeth
09. Rush
10. Genesis
11. Kiss
12. Death
13. Cannibal Corpse
14. Pink Floyd

i also listen to some Indie, Hip-Hop (french rap), Progressive Rock, some french musicians of where i'm from (Quebec)...

:)

the only thing that i hate in metal is that "metalcore" (don't judge me or anything).. i don't know why i hate that sort of music

finally
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

I'm 19, and I work to make money so I can go to school for music. I'm young, foolish, crazy, and I love DT (That's why I'm here). I hope we can all get along and be friends.
