Whoa
Dream Theater has nothing to do with Rush.
Geddy Lee is a great bassist

Everything from 2112 to Moving Pictures is fantastic. After that it's a slow falloff. (There's some good stuff on the first few albums too but I wouldn't call any of them as good as that streak they have once they really get going though)

There's a current sound alike band called Crown Lands who had the same producer who worked on those albums. Their last album sounds alot like 2112

Geddy's vocals are unique and great. Can't imagine g]how anyone could dislike a song like Closer to the Heart or Time Stands Still.

They had arguably the best drummer that's ever existed imo. There are others in the conversation but Neil Peart was just fantastic.

Honestly, most of their most fun stuff is their wanky stuff. A lot of their 2000s material on albums like Octavarium and Train of Thought where they tried to dial it back and sound more like contemporary bands that petrucci and portnoy like is their most soulless and boring.

Rush rules. Dream Theater is all the way up their own asses, (and their lead singer sounds like shit).

I love Rush but "they sound great until the singer dude comes in" is a sentiment I've heard many times

In a similar vein, I'm not super familiar with Dream Theater but from what I've heard, their singer is kinda below the others as far as technical proficiency goes

Dragonforce's current singer is shit compared to the old one. And I don't even like Dragonforce.

It took me for goddamn ever to like Tom Sawyer. And even now, I still only tolerate it. But the rest of Moving Pictures helped make it go down easier.

A few listens of Fly By Night on repeat were what really sold me on them as a group I wanted to listen to a lot more of, and by the time I backtracked to 2112 and Caress of Steel, I was solidly on the bandwagon.

It's definitely an acquired taste that's developed through exposure, though, and a ton of people aren't going to have the endurance for getting to that place.
