Liking the music taste!

A fellow DT, Neal Morse AND Spocks Beard fan! I would have had Trial Of Tears in my top 5 along with Metropolis Part 1 and the live version of Surrounded.

With songs like June there, I am surprised to not see Transatlantic, Morse at his best IMO, shame it didn’t last.

Jamiroquai are awesome and were incredibly tight when I saw them live. Jay Kay is also the only man I feel happy about calling a “great dancer” without feeling gay.

If you get the chance check out any of their live albums (At Montreux/Jazziroquai) for some cooler versions of their songs.

Oooh, Jamiroquai. Another great band I didn’t have a chance to mention!

@NaSaK: Forsaken is also a great tune but Presence’s opening riff destroys it. It is unbelievable cool and reminds me more of DT’s old days combined with Metallica rather than Forsaken which is a little bit more Nu Metaly. Both great tunes though!

annma: A fellow KDE dev DT fan? Will need to rock out with you at Akademy! Whoops, looked like I did only tag four people, count yourself as tagged

I fully agree with NasaK! Forsaken is more intense but this last album is just great as a whole!
You tagged only 4 people!

Hello Mike,

In The Presence Of Enemies (Part 1) is pretty fine, but I think Forsaken is another great hit (after Pull Me Under) by the DT, don’t you think?
