Post Reply - Progressive Metal Discussion Thread

And here I thought my hearing was good too, hmm . . .  -wha?
Over 30 years listening to Heavy Metal and collecting Albums = an experienced skilled labourer .
I think something has been happening here at MMA too, knowing "music terminology" automatically
makes you an "expert" on what "Heavy Metal should sound like", well I dont have a tin ear and I do
play Guitar, even though I cant read like most Guitarists or play (most) others music, but I can
improvise my own . . . and I think thats more original (thats what folks keep telling me ).
Most of what I play is influenced by Metal, but by no means is it conventional.

And Raff, how DARE you! "Personal taste"!? TREASON!!!

I like Duda and Wilson very much, and I was actually upset that DT let Dominici go because I
purchased WDADU when it debuted.  But I acknowledge now that LaBrie "is" (imo) the voice
of DT.  But I would never call Dominici's voice on that album bland, it was his vocals that set
the tone for all the musicianship on their 1st outing for me.
Glenn Hughes laid down some varied styles with Coverdale in the Deep Purple days, and
his work with (2?) Iommi and Sabbath, I like him very much.
To me its all more a variety for Heavy Metal, its either I like or do not like . . . thats all .

But hey, Lucas, to each his own .
