All of it's fans --
I HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN DREAM THEATERIZED!
Their album "Awake" has completely consumed me.
I hate "heavy metal" for the most part -- damn NOISE!
But Metallica and Dream Theater somehow transform it musically.
Both of the aforementioned bands have enough talent to do this.
Quite the contrary as to how I feel about Metallica's songs/albums...
It seems that I hate at least one part of every song on "Awake."
But as soon as I say that, a breathtaking part comes along!
It seems that every song I hear by them has a single saving grace.
The most notable example of how I feel about this is the chorus on "Voices."
As well as the part surrounding "Judas on the ceiling, the devil in my bed."
But I cannot help but feel distaste for the rest of this 9:53 "masterpiece."
Those two parts of "Voices" keep me coming back time and time again.
Every other song on the album is just as bittersweet, but I enjoy it!
Does anyone else feel this way (but for some reason cannot stop listening)?
The rest of the album, though, is slowly (but surely) warming up to me...
