Midnight is no more in Crimson Glory! Always these fucking human problems. they have a new singer, who sings in a very high range, but according to my friend, it's not (and by far) as good as it was with Midnight... I'm so sorry for them, and also for having given hope to the CG fans on this list. Stephane Auzilleau ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 15:02:57 +0000 From: Jon Parmet To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: PoO/DIO (DTC minor) Message-ID: > From: "Brian Henderson" > What's this I hear about a new Power of Omens album?! Just received Power of Omens demo in the mail. It had an apology for the delay written on the envelope, which I thought was nice. It wasn't even late, by my standards. But enough about me.... :) This demo is well worth getting! The vocalist is, as someone already mentioned, a dead ringer for Mr. Tate. The drummer is the first thing that jumps out, playing across the beat, under the beat and even upside the beat's head. Not as heavy as DT, but very progressive... > From: email_address_removed.se > And when DIO eventually formed his own self-named band, I > would recommend 'Holy Diver' and 'Last in Line' to start off with, > DIO's vocals are just brilliant on them. Has DT ever covered 'Last in Line?' James would do the vocals justice. And, of course, JP's guitar work would redefine justice :) *------------*------------------------*--------------* | Jon Parmet | email_address_removed | 617-494-2851 | *------------*------------------------*--------------* "The stars are matter and we are matter, but it doesn't matter." ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 10:09:49 -0500 (EST) From: Pat Daugherty To: Dream Theater Mailing List Subject: NDTC promised land cdrom Message-ID: Anyone have any hints about how to get through the Ryche game? I just find it hard to figure out where you are, what you are supposed to do, and what you have done since it lets you do the same things over. I just find this game unlike any other game I have played and it just seems annoying to me. I've had the game for awhile but just recently got a computer that could play the game... |-----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Pat Daugherty email_address_removed | |=======================================================================| | "Every breath leaves me one less to my last" --Dream Theater | | "That is not an option, Mr. Mulder" --X-Files | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 10:12:56 -0800 From: Andrew Forcier To: email_address_removed Subject: The Empire Strikes Back...

As it was foreseen, many albums would come forth on this nineteen hundred and ninety seventh year... not the least of which would be the mighty Shadow Gallery... the unseen and unlisted. Could it be that some expect to see the goddess Angra, and the Symphony of X come forth and do battle with these mighty competitors?

This one you can't pin on Dream Disc. Moise has be pretty pathetic at distributing this cd to the serious US Vendors. They come in in weird bursts of 20 cds it seems (from dealers' accounts) and sell out within a day or two. This cd is notoriously hard to keep in stock for these reasons. Dream Disc, or Impulse shoule be able to get it for you for about $12-13.

If you want to pay like $30 for it, sure. At least, that was the price.

What's more impressive is that the drum line was writen by Mike Portnoy and the original vocalist on the demo was Ray Alder! Oh no... wait... that's not right. Hmm. Then I guess I don't give a Coulomb. Is there I Type O Negative list that i can subscribe to to get Dream Theater info? (that's a joke... I don't at ALL blame you for the lack of DT content.

Savatage! (Supposedly in April) I couldn't agree with you more!

Since they're from San Antonio, and I'm relatively nearby in Houston, I wrote Dave, their guitarist, to ask if they were doing any shows. He responded that they are currently recording a full-length CD, and hope to have it completed by March. After they get the CD out (independently), they'll start playing clubs to support it. I _will_ see these guys when they do.. I'll let you all know if I get a list of tour dates or anything. I got the new Nevermore, The Politics of Ecstasy. It's decent.. but a word of warning, it's not very prog. A good description would be heavy/speed metal with prog leanings. A couple of times their instrumental sections are similar in complexity to the middle of Metropolis.. but that's as close to DT as they get. The singer has a low to medium pitched voice. And now, for a small spoiler about the album. I used a simple sampling program to figure out the backwards message at the end of track 6, I believe (I don't remember the song title). The backwards message is: "Send your answer to Old Pink." *grin* And no, it wasn't Roger Waters' voice, either. :) One of the Nevermore members I guess.

Is it talent? Drive to suceed? Passion for what you are doing? Schooling? The more I think about it the more I wonder. Just because a musician is greatly schooled in their instrument, it doesn't mean they are an artist. An artist is one whom creates from their heart and soul. Someone who uses their passion to bring something mental into the physical. Perhaps, all these years when I was judging singers on perfect pitch, or a guitarist on their ability to play arpeggios with ease, I was wrong. GASP, is it possible that I could have been wrong? Then again, in that very breath of saying that artists must be judged on their abilities to interpret and express their vision. It makes people like Marilyn Manson, Trent Reznor, Tori Amos, seem artistically genius. Perhaps they are. Maybe all these years, I just wasn't listening for what they were saying. What does this mean in referance to DT you are prolly thinking. Well, it actually is quite simple. We can hear something in DT that many mainstreamers can not. Rather then knocking them for hearing things differently, show them how to hear it. Teach them what you think it is that they should be able to understand. Maybe they just haven't learned to listen :) Lady Dragon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 15:39:44 -0600 From: "Rip, Cow Virtuoso" To: Heavy Metal Computer Nerds Subject: irc kickings Message-ID: > >Was it just me or did irc.dreamt.org kick everybody out on 29.01.97? actually it kicks everyone out 24-7, all the time, we've been using irc.rocknet.com port 6667 lately, its been lag free and dependable. seeya there ~Rip ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 15:47:40 -0600 From: "Rip, Cow Virtuoso" To: Heavy Metal Computer Nerds Subject: squeakings Message-ID: since i used to do this in digest mode and i havent in a while, just for "old times sake" i'm gonna do some random responses that have absolutely no intent of doing anything worthwhile.. :) > >TAKE ME OFF OF THIS LIST NO, YOU HAVE SOLD YOUR SOUL TO YTSE-SATAN AND ARE NEVER ALLOWED TO UNSUB THIS LIST, IF YOU CHANGE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS HE WILL FIND IT, IF YOU DISCONTINUE YOUR INTERNET ACCOUNT DIGESTS WILL BE PRINTED OUT AND SENT TO YOUR MAILBOX.
