Best of the Two

Opeth wins That's... good

I think Opeth is a way better band but I generally prefer the style of Metal that DT performs

Oh, I just found out, it seems this is a multiple vote poll... I think I just voted twice for Dream Theater (I thought I hadn't voted yet, since the page didn't tell me I had already voted, but when I voted again it still gives me the option to vote), however, this means the result for this poll isn't really reliable.

Dream Theater is one of those bands I generally prefer not to talk about out of fear of hurting someone's feelings.

That's the thing. So many people, whose opinion and taste in music I greatly respect, love or used to love DT. Like you, Chris, or Jonas. Because of that, I tried to like them many times, I listened to them and suffered for, as I imagined, my own good... I bought their t-shirts and slept in them, then listened again - nothing. I went to a SPA to cleanse my body of toxins and tried once more. Nothing. I banged my head against the wall repeatedly. It didn't work. I started to watch soap operas to sharpen my emotional side while sprinkling my head with vanilla oil. Still hated them afterwards....

I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE RIGHT AND I AM IN THE WRONG HERE  I feel lonely... maybe if I had friends, the love for DT would come too? But even you, people on the web, don't like me. I don't like me! And I don't like DT!... Suddenly a feeling of pure unity, coming from this overwhelmingly harmonious wave of negativity, overcomes my mind. It changes me. It makes me lucid. I see now. The truth is... I just can't stand LaBries' stupid voice.
