Ultimate Progressive Metal CD

Much like the post I made in the Death Metal forum...

What would you put on a CD to introduce people to the wonderful world of Death Metal?

Which bands? Which tracks? I think we're looking at around 18 tracks...



... I thought it could be interesting to try the same thing with other genres... and this time (yep, you guessed it) it's the turn of Progressive Metal.

Any suggestions?
Wardyboy

Learning To Live - Dream Theatre
Pull Me Under - Dream Theatre
Lateralus - Tool
Loucifer

I really should listen to some Dream Theater...

Personally I reckon you'll like them. But the vocal may just take a while. I didn't like it at first but now they are the bollox. They kick seven shades of shite out Dragonforce!

I agree, Dream Theater are Damn cool! and check below for what I think of Dragonforce. It's something I posted on another board but I thought i'd share it with you's.

Mr ? says he calls Dragon Force cheese and I reply with the following-

I call them Sh*te! simply cos they're a one trick pony with no sense of dynamics. They can play though, just a shame they aint got the class of some other bands with such skills to throw in a curveball every now and then, like something that isn't 10,000 bpm or perhaps a song.

hmmm, songs for the Prog album?
Sammy

Schism - Tool
Ticks and Leaches - Tool
Parabola - Guess who!!

Also gotta have some King Crimson, Rush, Porcupine Tree, Pink Floyd.... I don't know them well enough to suggest songs to be honest.

I'd probably put Nicodemus on this album as well... though they might also get onto a black metal album. No harm in that.

Hmmm... which track?

*starts looking through Nicodemus collection*
Sammy

I actually really like Next in Nocturne

Plus it's long enough to be on a prog album.... i think 18 tracks we're looking at about 3 cds worth! Very Happy

It's a box set then Razz
