Titan 12.17.23	Mindcrime must be top 5
el_newg 12.17.23	yep ^ it can replace buttbam
Tundra 12.17.23	Mindcrime blows yeah
BookoftheFallen 12.17.23	i didnt even think of that one
JDubb 12.17.23	Sorry - can’t stand with this list - although 2 and 5 are great. later DT albums (e.g. Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence) are so much better than 1. And 4 isn’t even close to being metal - King’s-X are prog rock.
Ryus 12.17.23	atheist - unquestionable presence motw - bath/leaving your body map voivod - dimension hatross opeth - still life ven buens ende - written in waters Mindcrime blows yeah [2]
Casavir 12.17.23	Ryus and Tundra having one of the worst takes ever here, classic
el_newg 12.17.23	personally I really like the guy saying prog rock ISNT EVEN CLOSE to prog metal! Like come on OP get your shit together
Ryus 12.17.23	their vocalist is rly bad and and it has no riffs
JohnnyoftheWell 12.17.23	>later DT albums (e.g. Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence) are so much better than 1 this is the worst take itt although never been able to force myself through a full Queensryche record, so maybe not defs drop Opeth/King's X for motW and btbam for Atheist though
Ryus 12.17.23	operation mindcrime is just an 80s heavy metal album with a ""concept"" so ppl think its progressive but musically its kinda not really
Casavir 12.17.23	A motw fan has no right to call anything riffless
Casavir 12.17.23	Also, I kind of agree with the idea of Mindcrime being pretty traditional for the most part, Rage for Order's the foundational prog metal release they've made.
BookoftheFallen 12.17.23	later DT albums (e.g. Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence) are so much better than 1. And 4 isn’t even close to being metal - King’s-X are prog rock. lol wrong
BookoftheFallen 12.17.23	Kings X are considered prog metal by sput
Tundra 12.17.23	1. Dream Theater 2. Opeth 3. Btbam 4. Meshuggah 5. Vildhjarta
JDubb 12.17.23	Right. 80’s vocals were horrendous - and saturate 1, even though released in 1992. And King’s-X is not metal. Galactic Cowboys were metal. Only King’s X album that approached metal (and heavy, for that matter) was Dogman. Don’t think I don’t have and know these albums.
BookoftheFallen 12.17.23	#notmetal
JDubb 12.17.23	OK. Stepping out of this one.
BlazinBlitzer 12.18.23	If we're talking "go-to" generally, I think Tool's gotta be considered.
