Liquid Tension Experiment

Okay, so maybe they weren't quite prog rock; more like 'prog metal fusion', but they were awesome. 'Paradigm Shift' is one of the best instrumentals ever, imo.

 

The best instrumental rock group I know. Yeah Paradigm shift is one the best, but don't forget... um don't forget... wait I can't choose cause I love each and every LTE songs!!

 

"Acid Rain"...

I can listen to that song on repeat all day.

I even like them more than Dream Theater.

 

Me too

 

Pretty good, they can get pretty self-indulgent but I personally tend to enjoy that kind of thing. I think Levin's a much better match for Crimson, though, he doesn't fit the metal genre too well.

 

ya dude their technicality blows me away totally music for the musicians, very very skilled at what they do it inspires me

 

I love Liquid Tension. I have both of their CD's. Did they come out with more than two?

 

I think they recently released a CD of improvised jams without John Petrucci (I think he had to be in the hospital or something like that). So it's just Rudess Portnoy and Levin

 

Definitely beter than dream theatre. Portnoy is crazy sauce.

 

LTW = unbelievable

Dream theater = equally good

 

Portnoy is God.

 

so are pettruci, myung, rudess, and, while some won't admit it, labrie.
