[QUOTE="PowerSerj"][QUOTE="-Sniper99-"]Tool, Dream Theater is WAY overrated, Danny Carey from Tool is my favourite drummer of all time:DHot-Tamale
lol I love how a band that someone doesn't like is automatically overrated. Dream Theater is FAR from being overrated. What with them having one of the best guitarists, one of the best drummers, and one of the best keyboardists...ya, overrated.
I choose Dream Theater. I could never really get into Tool.
Let's look at which band is more derivative:
Dream Theater: The most popular prog metal band today, but they rip off Queensryche in almost all of their songs. The lyrics are not very good either. Just having good musicianship doesn't mean that DT is a good band.
Tool: No band sounds like Tool, which is a good thing. Their lyrics are almost unmatched in their brilliance, and they aren't as arrogant as the DT guys. DT's musicianship is better, though.
Final Verdict: Tool wins! No offense, but Dream Theater is probably the most accessible prog metal band out there, so they attract people with more mainstream tastes. DT=mainstream.
Dude, Tool are more mainstream than Dream Theater will ever be. But i'm curious as to what songs Dream Theater have ripped from Queensryche. Seeing as I only have Operation Mindcrime by Queenryche, I would like some song comparisons.
