Non-prog fan isn't a term. The correct term for that is "everybody".

In this particular context, the correct term is "everybody else." The overwhelming majority of people here would characterize themselves, in one way or another, as fans of prog. You are the outlier.

But in reality, prog fans are the outliers, so that doesn't matter to me.

I do not think that there are many DT fans that do not like some of the "traditional prog" bands. I like Gentle Giant, Yes, ELP and Jethro Tull a lot. Do not care too much for Pink Floyd. Ironically, I do not like Prog metal bands, Being DT the ONLY exception.

Not sure why you guys are still arguing with Blob. He dropped a "deal with it" at the end of the last page, so that means he wins whether he is right or not.

I wasn't sure whether it still held up outside of the jurisdiction of the musical "deal with it" thread, but apparently so.

No, it definitely does. It is multi-jurisdictional. Deal with it.

Fuck, king, you suck at English. Why are you attempting French?

No. I suck at spelling english. I took 4 years of french and I suck at that.

I just need an editor. Blob has offered his services for a small fee.

I think that ToT has the best production / mix of any of their albums.

I f "better" means that it's the production/mix that best fits the songs on the album (which I think it does) I agree.

JayOctavarium · « **Reply #6288 on:** June 19, 2015, 07:34:22 PM »

By best I mean it's my favourite. 8VRM comes close but falls flat. FII is great as well, Images and Awake sound dated, Scenes has mix issues. I really enjoy SC but the compression makes it a bit meh. ADTOE falls flatter than 8VRM... DT12 and Black Clouds... we all know the issues there...

And I don't listen to 6DOIT enough to give a damn

zecawolf · « **Reply #6289 on:** June 19, 2015, 07:45:57 PM »

Yes, agree. It's not my personal favourite (I don't love the drums sound), but it certainly delivers exactly what the songs ask. ToT is overall one of my favourite albums. And perhaps the most different from anything else.

I'll back you up on this. ToT sounds amazing. Every time I put it on it's like John Myung breaks down my front door, sets up his cab in front of my face and starts grooving. Love it.

Most Overrated album: Black Clouds.... ewwwwwww $:\$

I mean, Count of Tuscany is the most anti-climatic thing they've done
Shattered Fortress is a bad joke, the laziest way of finishing the AA suite
A Passage something is their tribute to singles and Metallica
The other ones are ok, except for Best of Times that I think it's the one song made with true heart.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #6293 on:** June 20, 2015, 02:05:54 AM »

How can an album be overrated when it's not highly rated to begin with? That's not controversial on DTF (unfortunately). If anything, it's underrated.

See, this is controversial.

I have to give you that, not DTF, I was a member here until Systematic Chaos so I don't know what the popular opinion here was

It's just my opinion, I got frustrated after the BC&SL show I attended, it exacerbated my position towards this album.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #6297 on:** June 20, 2015, 02:36:57 AM »

Then maybe stick around for more than 15 posts before deciding what warrants being in the "controversial opinion" thread here in future.

I really enjoy New Millennium.
