I'd assumed your posting was tongue-in-cheek, Bartosso. Where do you get the idea that you're not liked? Certainly I only know you from MMA but I always look forward to your posts. You in a bad place, mate?

Although a dislike for LaBrie's voice is a common trait amongst many thousands of metalheads and is probably not curable ;-)

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 Angry 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.
 
Oh my B. are you alright? Clown

lol, thanks for asking bro Hug 

As a matter of fact, I'm not sure.


I know you´ve had a couple of really rough years, but there has to be at least a Little light at the end of the tunnel. We´re here for you mate Smile.

Oh it definitely was tongue-in-cheek! Still, as Jonas has said, the stuff that's been happening during the last 2-3 years is really starting to mess with my brain, so there may be some subconscious, id, ego, super ego interferences Tongue. I'm also on a very strict diet now and am hungry all the time LOL
I apologize if you took the "no one likes me" part seriously and personally (which is totally understandable, given the unfortunate way I put it, haha) It's just that one of my best friends turned his back on me when I needed his support, that depresses me a bit. But in general, even if I am a little bit asocial, it's the way I am and I have no problem with that whatsoever.

Anyway, I'm sorry if my psychedelic rant worried you, but I'm also grateful for the kind words you said, they made me feel much better Smile

Definitely Dream Theater. I could never get into Opeth. Don't really care about DT either since Train of Thought though.

Oh, I know the feeling... except I don't buy into Freudian theory. But, yeah, I've been going through a rough patch too. And it's not over yet :-S

Oh, man, yeah having experienced shit like that when I was younger, I think I know where you're coming from. I have just given up on the best-friend concept altogether.

Yeah, it turns out it's an overrated, idealistic concept. Also, I hope your life will get back to normal very soon.

I also agree with Opeth. I've always found them more interesting and diverse as opposed to Dream Theater, who seems to produce the same basic sound with every album.

I love DT!

And I think the two completely different bands within the same universe (progressive metal).

Opeth by a long shot.  I find DT extremely boring.
