@MattersofDespair i sincerely, from the bottom of my heart hope you are not insinuating that Michael doesn't have any chance against any of those 2. I love all 3 don't get me wrong but Romeo is just on a totally different level.
@FatFuckRecherche yeh well said vinnie anchient moore hahahah mcalpine wtf is this guy on at least compare him to good guitarists like mab and vai ffs
Russell Allen has been having one too many Old Country Buffet All You Can Eat Taco Bars! He looks wayyyyy better now 8 years later lol Still a badass singer!
@pablodsc123 You're kidding right? Vai is one of the (if not the most) expressive electric guitarists in the world. Now I love Romeo, he's my 3rd favorite guitarist, Petrucci first Vai second, but expression isn't one of his strong suites. He's a beast in composition though,
awesome song and band. i love the turning and the odyseey though longest has some excellent melodies it it like champion of ithaca thats my favorit e part in the odyssey and yes russel and romeo are super great live. i saw them twice at jaxx. adnim going this may for my birthday!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This guy is my fave metal player right now....fucking shredder....but he has such a pissy tone sometimes....solos don't cut through enough....so many awesome metal players just have a shit tone...it's like they need to listen to some SRV or something...fatten it up and drop this bee in a bottle shit....boss metal zones are not something to aspire to....hahaha all good shred on!!!!!!!!
@johnnyweepingwillow As much as I like Marko, you are talking bullshit. Sorry. He would suck on SX songs as singer MUCH. It's not about taste, but range, technique and talent.
The nightwish tracks are from a different planet than SX.
I love the way Russell Alan sings his songs. He could either sound pretty emotional, or sound like a complete badass. In fact, all of Symphony X are badass! All of the music they play with their instruments really go well together.
I have no idea why you got ANY thumbs down. It's not like you're bashing them or anything, simply speaking your preference.
I prefer Dream Theater as well, but I'm not going to deny that Symphony X is fucking amazing. Michael Romeo is amazing, Russell Allen's vocals are the best today (I believe LaBrie on "Awake" was marginally better, hence why I said "today"), I can't complain about the drumming, very tasteful, I like the keyboardist more than Jordan Rudess, and the bass is damn good, also.
hummm, not the greatest Inferno Live I ever seen lol, I prefer the way they did it on April 9th 2008 in the Medley (Montreal, Qc, Canada) lol it was insane S-X FREAKING ROCKS!!!
As ever, great lungs Russ! :D
