Actually my hate for them has grown exponentially when I realised that they created a (lame) template for how 70s prog and metal were supposed to be blended that ruined the potential of a lot of bands.


btw am I the only one who is confused why everyone is calling the new Mastodon proggy? I mean they've got some tekk instrumental breaks and some intricate riffs, but its not progressive by either definition (covering new ground or something involving ambition and/or melodrama and/or wanking) really...

I was about to go fucking balls over my computer screen until I saw what NESS posted, and that alleviated most of the anger.

Still, that "little Chinese girl" comment pisses me off. John Myung could beat the hell out of every single Mastodon member in a second. I mean, has anyone seen his forearms? I was sitting through Live At Budokan looking at his forearms. That guy is a fucking beast.

It doesn't seem many others are following your lead. So I'll try to summarize:

The original quotes were the result of a loaded question being asked to a complete goofball. Brann from Mastodon called and apologized and Dream Theater aren't pissed at anyone except the mag that asked the question in the first place.

So, then, Masturdon are gay? :unsure:

So I'd llike to start a petition never to let Brent Hinds speak again. He says stupid shit in interviews and his clean vocals suck.

Well not that I look up to Dream Theater much. But these guys (Mastodon) are a real joke. Commenting on their looks is probably the lamest reason for you to dislike a band (yes I admit I'm turned off by Dee Snider but fuck, they're good!). And they aren't cool looking by the way (yes, Mastodon again). They've got a point with DT being overrated, but hey, who isn't? Publicity stint, that's all, I think.

Ok, again:

People, read NESS's follow-up story! Its just a big fucking joke that neither of the bands seem to give much of a shit about, so why is everyone still wanting to make an issue of it?

I don't know why, but I've never listened to Mastodon. Maybe it's because noodles likes them.

Calling Dream Theater gay is like calling noodles gay...

...Cause it's an understatement.

Eh...Dream Theater are pretty much my favorite band, but I'm used to people (my friends) making fun of them so it doesn't bug me too much. Mastodong are a pretty good band, too...listening to Blood Mountain right now.

EDIT: LMAO. What a bad typo.

The difference between Mastodon and Dream theater is that both bands have skilled musicians that masturbate a lot but Mastodon is more awesome and sounds like actual music and not just wankery.

Pffft I freely admit and testify that Dream Theater got too wanky in their mid-later period, but Images & Words is teh pwn.

Metropolis, Part 1 > your shitty band :dio:

Holy crap Images and Words is actually OK. o.o

James Labrie doesn't sound as gay as I remember him, probably because I listen to The Mars Volta now :unsure:

EDIT: the songs get kind of samey and blah in the second half though >_<
