Or maybe I should start saying that Dream Theater is one of the worst bands of all time and Korn made a superb album. Maybe then people will think I'm not a troll.

You don't understand why I posted that? I replied to a post of yours showing Dream Theater's weaknesses. I posted those artists/bands weaknesses to show that even some of the great artists/bands have weaknesses too.

Dream Theater having weaknesses doesn't qualify them as one of the worst bands of all time. All bands have weaknesses.

I do. I just find their music numbing. I can enjoy their music when in the right mood and I do think they have a lot of skill. I get more enjoyment listening to Genesis, Pink Floyd, Buckethead, Joe Satriani, Led Zeppelin, Symphony X, Opeth etc because they have more emotion and creativity within their music.

I think that's what Il Duce and UnknownSoldier were trying to say.

In all honesty, you don`t really notice much about anything.

No, they`ll still think you`re a troll.

Perfect example of your contradictions. You find Dream Theaters`s music numbing BUT you also love them (when in the right mood of course)

You claim to love the emotion and creativity of Led Zeppelin! I`m actually surprised that you can actually hear all that, amidst the the sloppy guitar playing and screeching vocals......

BTW you`re making yourself look really stupid now, when on the one hand you call them plagiarists and then a few post later stating how creative you think they are!!!

I said a long time ago in this thread that I find their music lifeless.

I don't love them. I like their music when I'm in the right mood. Them being emotionless doesn't mean I can't enjoy their music.

Jimmy Page is a sloppy guitarist but very creative. Therefore I can look past that. Robert Plant does have a screeching voice but the emotion that he puts into his music makes me overlook that when listening to him.

I never said Led Zeppelin stole all of their songs. It's well known about their involvement in plagiarism. Their creativity in the songs they did write (most of them) and especially their Zoso album more than make up for it.

so what you're saying is that you're indifferent towards all music?

sorry but we love what we love and we hate what we hate round here
