Absolutely, it kinda ruins it for some people. Gives them bad reps even sometimes. I know people who look like what people would call metal heads who don't even listen to it.

Good song... and those G3 jams if you've ever seen them... are insane!! I haven't seen the tour coming around lately - I guess they've ended it or taken a break? 
the portnoy business made me laugh pretty hard though, he leaves dream theater to join AVENGED SEVENFOLD?? (I know their drummer died but still...) then gets kicked out and tries to rejoin DT but they tell him to more or less fuck off I doubt he'll have much trouble finding a new interesting musical project though.

LOL, why do you give so much of a fuck about what's music to my ears? I generally don't like metal, does this really offend you so much?

I have the G3 2005 DVD and it's incredible. I lent it to some 45 years old guitar player I used to work with and I haven't gotten back yet though. It's been about 2 years now I do know where he lives though, I'll have to retrieve that soon.
I didn't know they stopped. It's a real shame if they did.

Yeah... kinda got himself into a mess 
Quote:
Avenged Sevenfold and Departure from Dream Theater
In spring 2010, Portnoy filled in for Avenged Sevenfold's former drummer, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, who died during production of the band's latest album Nightmare.
On the May 5th, 2010, Portnoy released a statement on his status with Avenged Sevenfold on their official website saying: "Although I wish I could stay on board with A7X in a more permanent capacity, the reality is that I am committed to Dream Theater as my main priority and I will need to resume work with DT to start a new album at some point in 2011.....However, I will be able to join my brothers in Avenged Sevenfold for at least the duration of their touring throughout 2010.....You can look at me like the band's "rebound drummer" to buy them some time until they are comfortable and ready to make a commitment to somebody new for full-time relationship in their future!"[18]
On Wednesday, September 8, 2010, Mike Portnoy announced he would be leaving Dream Theater. In his official statement[19] he said: “ Dream Theater was always my baby...and I nurtured that baby every single day and waking moment of my life since 1985...24/7, 365...never taking time off from DT's never-ending responsibilities (even when the band was "off" between cycles)...working overtime and way beyond the call of duty that most sane people ever would do for a band....But I've come to the conclusion that the DT machine was starting to burn me out...and I really needed a break from the band in order to save my relationship with the other members and keep my DT spirit hungry and inspired.
We have been on an endless write/record/tour cycle for almost 20 years now (of which I have overseen EVERY aspect without a break) and while a few months apart from each other here & there over the years has been much needed and helpful, I honestly hoped the band could simply agree with me to taking a bit of a 'hiatus' to recharge our batteries and 'save me from ourselves'... Sadly, in discussing this with the guys, they determined they do not share my feelings and have decided to continue without me rather than take a breather...I even offered to do some occasional work throughout 2011 against my initial wishes, but it was not to be... ”
The rest of the band did not agree and decided to continue on without him. Because of this decision, Portnoy decided he will be leaving Dream Theater. How the production of the 11th album or the future world tour will continue on without him is still unclear.[20] According to John Petrucci's Twitter account, auditions to find a new drummer began in October.[21] An interview with James LaBrie conducted on October 8, 2010 confirmed that there were seven world-class drummers lined up for auditions, which would be taking place through the rest of October. LaBrie is confident that their new drummer lies within these seven.
On December 16, 2010, Portnoy announced via Facebook that although he would have liked to continue working with the band, Avenged Sevenfold had decided to stop using him as their drummer.[22] He later announced that he had asked to rejoin Dream Theater, but had been rejected.[23] “ Fairly recently, I reached out to the guys to try and make amends and offered to reconcile for the sake of having peace back in our lives...(plus I know how much it meant to a lot of the fans...)
I figured it was still possible to try and save us because they hadn't made any announcements yet or begun any public activity with another drummer...but sadly, they declined my offer (well, actually their lawyer did...they didn't even tell me themselves....) [...] I tried, and the door is now shut...the ball is now in their court, not mine... ”
On February 3, 2011, Mike Portnoy announced via Facebook that he has started a musical project with Russell Allen. Portnoy made a follow-up update on February 15 about the project between himself and Allen, now including Mike Orlando, that they are cutting drums tracks together.

Wow. Avenged Sevenfold's new album was atrocious. I did dig City of Evil though.
So strange for him to do that. Even Dream Theater's worst albums are light years ahead of any Avenged Sevenfold albums.

Of course, Bothhands and Poid will look over this song because it would destroy their stereotypes.
I definitely don't consider Dream Theater metal. More like progressive rock.
I guess it's semantics, but they definitely weren't included in my comment.

People have posted bands I like. And how the fuck does me not liking pig vocals correlate at all to the tightness of my pants? 
In fact a ton of people with tight pants listen to metal with pig vocals.
I've posted pics of myself on this site, and I am nowhere close to looking "emo", ya fuckin' scenester.
Go pick up change and fight your invisible ninjas elsewhere dude.

I must say, thumbs fuckin' up on Continuo Renacer. But seriously, greatest prog death metal band ever;
Opeth - Bleak
Opeth - Hope Leaves
two amazing songs on opposite ends of the spectrum.

It's progressive metal and there's many more where that came from.

Bullshit, you admitted to being pissed off at me when I first talked shit about your beloved metal, you left a negative rating regarding me doing that, and you continue to tell people that "somebody who doesn't think metal is music isn't worth talking to".
You obviously care. A lot.

What reason would I have to be butthurt? Oh, that's right, a fuckin' metal-head doesn't like me. 
It doesn't matter how hard it was for you to make those posts, or how long it took you to post them, the fact is that you posted them. 
If you didn't give a fuck, then you wouldn't have shown any signs of giving a fuck about whether I like your shitty music of choice. But you did. More than once. So you do.
