  • I like the name of the band (there's no need to say that I also like their music xD) And I'm sure that they choose that name because English isn't their native tongue, so they thought that sounded funny lol

  • @RombusEvilBones Haha dude! The fact that they are from Brasil doesn't mean they don't know English properly. In fact, there's an explanation on their Facebook page of why they chose that name.

  • @DanielGonzalezC xD yeah, I know. I'm from Argentina and I think it sounds very funny. Didn't read the explanation though (I will search for it now lol)

  • Pumped! Keep it up!

  • When can we buy the whole album?

  • Sounds great:)\m/

  • I know I'm not the first one, but god's sake! theres plenty of names to choose out there xDD

  • done - bought it on amazon. might as well, i've worn out the play button!

  • That beginning riff is awesome! i listened to this song when it came out and it still gets stuck in my head to this day!

  • Making music inspired, and/or similar to Dream Theater normally results in absolute brilliance. Symphony X is not nearly as artistic as DT, but their really nice to listen to, namely 'The Divine Wings of Tragedy.' and Bad Salad (what the fuck's with the name?) looks to be a band on the rise. I look forward to seeing them progress and developing their own style.

  • YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST THE GAME!! ... AARRRGGGHHHH!!! -__-

  • The singer sounds quite a bit like James LaBrie, too. Good work, guys.

  • Magnifica Banda, me llevo al profundo mar del universo, el juego de las guitarra electrica, bajo, bateria, teclados, y por supuesto la voz, me devuelven la ilusión de seguir escuchando su musica. Son Brazil ?. ESTUPENDOS!!!

  • man what am outro!!!!!

    from 8:16 is just mind blowing

  • Could it be this my nemesis? Could this be it my nemesis?

  • Serei o primeiro a comprar o CD.

  • In The Presence of Enemies part 3...

  • additional comment... I really like the register that Dennis' voice naturally falls within. Great tone. I could make a compliment about every element to the bands sound, but that's just what comes to mind right now.

  • i haven't listened to this in months, and i'm so happy I came back to listen to it. I love this song.

  • I think its official. Any band that can cover dream theater and or is inspired by them, is then led to making great music

  • the main guitar solo is very impressive !! it made me an addict for this song congratulations..

  • That keyboard, that guitar, them drums, that bass, and them vocals. Like a better Symphony X. So amazing, DT would be proud.

  • Essa banda é de que ano ?Adorei , quero mostra-la aos meus amigos

  • É muito bom ver Metal Progressivo com essa qualidade tocado por brasileiros.

    Parabéns!!!

    Desejo muito sucesso!!!

  • 2012 is Bad Salad Year...YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • foda\o/

  • mi ricorda le canzoni dei dream theater... complimenti però molto bella!

  • @denisbito Thanks for the heads-up. Will it be available internationally(Europe to be precise)? If not, I just hope shipping costs won't triple the costs xD. Good look with it and rock on!

  • @Horrorkraut Yep! It'll be available internationally for ordering online, both in digital and physical copies. Just a couple more months so we finish recording, mixing and mastering. :)

  • Prog Metal band Melodramus is a fan

  • I love Denis' unique vocals, I don't think I've heard someone who sounds quite like this in prog metal ever. And the instrumentations are just awesome! Can't wait for your debut album!

  • The work is incredible guys, I am I Texas and have No clue where to find your music in stores here? Also fantastic covers on the DT songs.

  • @timewarpharpoon our debut album is in the works. Follow us on facebook if you'd like to follow more closely. We're currently in the middle of drum recordings. Thanks for the interest! Take care.

  • Why are you NOT NAMED DREAM SALAD!!...LOL LOVE You GUYS!!

  • Holy balls. I am pretty jaded after all the prog metal I've listened to over the years but I am LOVING this band. This album will be a must for the I-pod.

  • Hey,

    first off, I think your music is great. I have a question regarding your upcoming album. Will there be a retailer version? I would really like to buy your album, but up until now I refused to buy DRM haunted, virtual-only music. I love my Albums on Disc^^

  • @Horrorkraut Yeah, we'll definitely have a retail version - a real jewel case CD for sale. It'll be available for ordering online. Just a few more months and the album will be out! Cheers.

  • @DTNazza @gianlucca4859 the album will be ready in the next months! Follow the recording process through our facebook page: facebook slash BadSalad. Thanks!

  • Fantastic work my friends!Bad Salad, you rule!

  • I just discover these musicians when seraching for Dream Theater cover, and as I found him sooo good, they formed a band and became gods! :D

  • Keep making this and I will buy your records blindly.

  • I have to say, prefer Nemesis, but hard decision, both are legendary!

  • This is totally awesome. Your dream theater covers were absolutely fantastic, but these compositions are amazing, it's very nice to see all your hard work finally pays and you making an album ! Keep on rocking ! For a long time !

  • LOVE the tempo change at 5:20

  • Pardon my language, But this is fuckign awesome.

  • 0:00

  • !!!, you have a new fan, i follow you guys since you do your split-screen covers of Dream Theater, and you guys are good compositors, awesome guys, keep rocking!!

  • This song is awesome to the max.

  • вы ахуенны!!!!

  • This band is amazing!

  • Muito BOM, de parabéns caras!!! lembra Fates warning com elementos atuais. Parece o Petrucci na guitarra XD

    Esse Thiago Campos é foda! Parabés mesmo!

  • Sounds like progressive symphonic metal.

  • Just three letters - WOW

    then few letters...

    Nothing > progressive metal bands > Bad Salad > Dream Theater

    In other words - You're awesome

  • "Close your eyes to see

    You have already lost the game"

    If you knew about that meme you would know you are trolling all your listeners xDD

    Just joking, great stuff!

  • The length of this song upside down is"4311" or"HELL"...just thought that was weird haha

  • @PASTAandMUSE 4 is used for A not for H

  • @stringnerd He is talking about when you typed a '4' on an old calculator and turned it upside down, causing the '4' to read as an 'h'. Usually it ended with people typing '01134' (Hello) and showing it to people before showing '5138008' (Boobies) to then laugh at the wonders of an upturned calculator screen ^^

  • @IbanStronginthearm Exactly!

  • the hat is still retarded

  • no missing button... one person is fucking jealous

  • The direction I always wished DT took! They sorta tried in some ways, but it always sounded canned to me. Maybe hear a little Symphony X in there too? You guys are seriously great. Looking forward to the album.

  • You guys are awesome. I always look forward to what's next from you guys. However, I have some constructive advice. Please don't take this the wrong way--like I said, you guys are awesome. As you guys continue on, try to develop your "own sound" a little more. Obviously, you are heavily influenced by DT--which is cool, but your tone and sound is SO similar that people might mistake YOU for THEM! If you want to have a long career--it's very important to be somewhat unique. I know you can do it!

  • @ctcassidy no, all bands are influenced by other bands. This is not HEAVILY influenced. They are just in the same genre if anything. If you wanna see something HEAVILY influenced, check this out :

    /watch?v=CWLTU6mtamQ

  • @cimore000 I agree with you, (and those guys just WANT to be DT, the guys in the vid you linked, not Bad Salad!) Though the fact they are reasonably large DT fans is kind of present in song structure but as you said its not like a DT wannabe track (this or crowded sky) this is unique i feel and i think you'd agree! But the "tone" thing i would slightly agree on as they use the same gear but its not a straight rip either. These guys get the "DT-ish" label as they do covers i think! (Partly, imho)

  • @ctcassidy I don't hear how this is similar to dream theater at all...

  • Fuckin' genious!

  • Mike Portnoy found this song and wanted to return to dream theater! but.......

  • 1 person has missed the like button :/

  • The individual parts are nice, but the song is sort of missing a plot and perhaps too many different things were crammed into one song. While they may all work separately, perhaps breaking them up into separate songs and then writing around those parts would make it better for me. Now I get the same feeling as when I'm listening to The Ministry of Lost Souls: halfway through the song I think "where the heck am I? Did I miss the last few minutes?". You guys have the creativity to go far, though.

  • modern day tune w/ epic-style sound ala pink floyd/queen/metallica...'kin rights man

  • Will you ever release this like the demo version with you playing? I would love to learn this song.

  • Adorei a capa!!

    Pô, esses putos vão longe!

    Sonzeira boa do caralho!!!!!

  • hells yessssss

    

  • i will do anything for you to make more music like this! i had searched for something like this in a lot of time! and now i found something!!! :D GO BAD SALAD!!!

  • Gostei muito!!! uma linha bem Dream Theater... muito bom mesmo!!

    Estão de parabéns.

  • First band I've ever known that I'm sure I'll love every bit of music they put out...already do

  • Good song, epic melodies, memorable riffs and moments, but, the sound and the whole feel of the band is just too much Dream Theater, the whole idea of the band and the 2 songs released are something that I have heard before, a lot of times.

    You guys should try differents things and experiment with different kinds of music, to keep the real Prog feel alive, because prog is not (only) about intricate playing, complex structures and signature time changes, is about "moving forward" musically.

  • Can't decide if the best one is Crowded Sky or Nemesis. I think both of them are real PROG and musically rich. No doubt Bad Salad is going to be the future of Progressive Music, probably one of the best bands of this genres. Can't wait for you to finish the album :D keep up the good work.

    Oh, and BTW, if you ever get to tour on Mexico (specifically to Monterrey), be sure that you'll have a big audience waiting for you... including me!

    Hail the Greatest Salad!

  • nemesis is definitely your best song, love the clean vocals and the angry chorus parts, harmonies are cool too. love the keyboard riff, the ending could have been better though, my only complaint haha

  • Get an album out now so I can give you my money

  • @Allthatismetal Buy nemesis and Crowded Sky from iTunes. It ain't much but hey, at least it is two dollars and a couple more of sold songs on the statistics for BS :)

  • amazing songs, keep it up guys!!

    any preview of another song?

    Dale Brasil!

  • I love the intro's on your videos!

  • Future of your band is big.

    You do great job, you may be successor of Dream Theater.

  • soys los mejores.

    me gustaria que supieseis que en españa teneis muchisimos fans!!!!

    esperando al album!!!!!!!!!!!

    gracias por hacer la buena MUSICA que haceis!!!!

  • bad ass. Can't wait to purchase the album!

  • love all your song both covers and originals...keep rocking!!!

  • REALLY need a video for this!!!! The DT influence is heavy on this one!

    :thumbsup:

  • man, Bad Salad kicks so much ass. Its easy to see that Dream Theater is a big influence of you guys

  • bad salad? epic winning salad!

  • OMG! So freaking awesome. I really admire your work guys! Keep it up! :D

  • amazing production!!!! how do you get such an amazing mix???!!!

  • this is an epic song guys! keep it up. i want to see you guys be the next opener for DT

  • Crowded Sky was just a great song. It hits you right in the face with the word go. But this one, this one has real elements of psychedelic rock, along with the progressiveness. That is obvious. But the vocals have a totally different approach, like the aggressive vocals on the main chorus of the song ( "Could this be my Nemesis" ). Guitars and Keyboards were much better, according to be coz simply, this song was more about feel, and less of shredding. A really "complete" song.

    Bad Salad FTW! :)

  • Muito bom o trabalho de vocês caras.... feliz em ver uma banda brasileira fazendo música progressiva dessa forma e ver que vocês já tem a RoadRunner com vocês! Grande passo! Parabéns!

  • Very dark, depressive music, full of emotions. Bad comparison, but my thought was immediately on Moonspell. Another fantastic band from another country full of sunshine. How do you do it, guys? Congrats, this is a very strong material, looking forward to see you on your first european tour!

  • kickass and genius

  • Hell yea!

    I see future in you guys

  • you guys are sick

  • Which Bad Salad song do you prefer so far? "Crowded Sky" or "Nemesis?

  • @BadSaladOfficial nemesis!

  • @BadSaladOfficial i cant choose, they are both awesome put together, i cant listen to one without listening to the other!

  • @BadSaladOfficial Nemesis!!

  • @BadSaladOfficial They're both so good but Nemesis!

  • New favorite song, easy.

  • i keep having to remind myself that this isn't DT while im listening to it....

    Great job, will be watching for the full album.

  • guys...i liked this video but like is really far to what i really feel about it. AMAZING SONG!! you guys are the best example of DT´s legacy, please keep playing

  • cool song. the vocals aren't exactly that interesting but he has a good voice

  • Just do not like growl voice, but the rest is good

  • You guys are getting ridiculous with this whole "DT WIFOUT MP IS NO LONGAR DT CRY SNIFF SNIFF"

    Are you forgetting about the world class guitarist they have? The keyboardist MP called "the greatest keyboardist of all time"? A bassist who just recently won a poll for greatest bassist of all time? James LaBrie? Sure MP micromanaged the band, but you guys seem to forget about the rest of the band who is just as accomplished and even much more skilled than MP. Give it a freaking rest.

  • Your album art is the stupidest you could get, but the music is awesome.

  • Dream Theater influence is very evident here :D Good job guys! I'll be following your band till you get even more famous than DT xD

  • Some live footage would be nice

  • @bigbadwerner I don't think they've played any live shows yet. They don't have a full album to support yet.

  • @bigbadwerner It would be very nice.

  • é muito bom!!!!

  • o.O fucking great :D

  • this is gooooooooood

  • Not bad for a debut album guys. Blows the stuff most new bands will be putting out there for the first time out of the water completely.

  • Thank God the future of music is safe XD

  • Amazing work mates ! I wish you many happy moments with your debut album !

    Amazing sound :)

  • does anyone know the chords in the second verse?

  • Se encontrar o vosso album aqui em portugal já tá comprado, grande som amigos :))

  • Sounds like an Epic adventure. Cant believe this will be stuff on your first album. Just Amazingly sick!!

  • Now that portnoy went away from Dream Theater you're my new hope

  • @ScratSniff

    I honestly think that DT will have a fresh new sound (not too different just fresh) without MP. as much as I was devastated that he left I think DT will be able to still write amazing music without him. Besides JP wrote most of the music anyway.

  • @marduke83 yeah that is still possible and it would be the best if it is gonna be like that - but for me DT was Portnoy, he was the personality of the band without him - DT is not DT anymore.

  • Next Generation music!!

  • this is so fucking awesome!! D:

    greetings from Chile

  • bad salad IS THE SHIT

  • woulld be sick to have them doing the first part on the next DT tour

  • Comment removed

  • I've been following some of the players in this band a few years before this band started. I really still don't care too much for the singer. I truly think they could've got better.

  • Artist: Bad Salad

    Title: Nemesis

    Album: I dont know!!! but cant wait to have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yeah the DT influence is obvious to everyone but i hear some Opeth in there too

  • You've got some fans in Israel too, i very much like both songs you put out by now. great arrangements and sound work besides the great music

  • We want to see you in Paris, France !!

    Com'on guys

  • From 7:12 onwards was the most orgasmic thing I've heard in a long time. Great work you guys, with this song and "Crowded Sky" you have yourself a great future. Keep it up!

  • W Bad Salad From Rome ;-)

    Italy waits for you in concert!

  • the song and band are good and all but why always the ugly faces in the album cover ??

    what are you trying to say? that you're bad ass or that you love disgusting stuff ?!

  • @meknassi666 or they like it as an album cover

  • This is one of the most greatest band that I ever heard this year!

  • the future of prog.No doubt.

    can't wait for the album °,°

  • First picture of you guys looks a lot like an image from an Iron Maiden CD with the band all lined up!

    Great song!

  • same old shit. nothing new.

    -.-

  • This song is great.

    I hear some alice in chains kinda drums there.

    And I also hear alot of dream theater and some Rush.

    You guys are great.

  • Sweet song, the drums are a little bit too pushed away by the bass and guitars for me. The vocals are well mixed hot damn. Apart from that nice wall of sound dudes! ;)

  • nice one :) this song blows my mind!! you need to tour in england if you keep going!

  • People are going to download this song from youtube so better take it off

  • @yairoka
