Compilation of a few clips from my favorite prog metal bands. A proof that there's a whole lot more in prog metal than Dream Theater...the most overrated prog band in the world.

in this video

Queensryche
Mindflow
Pagans Mind
Porcupine Tree

  • New Video coming Up!

  • With all the many prog metal masterpieces you have, you've missed one band (unless I've missed it) Circus Maximus should get some recognition

  • They are in # 1 or # 2 I Think

  • heil, man. whats the name of the queensryche's song ?

  • Screaming in Digital

  • To the person who posted this video. Dream theater is not over rated, i dont think you understand what that means lol. They are the kings of progressive rock/metal.. i cant even pin them on a specific genre because there so universal.

  • People like you and comments like that is what makes them the kings of the overated

  • I personally think that Dream Theater is an incredible band, but my main frustration is their fanbase - how they think they've seen it all once they reach DT. Every band brings something new to the table, and progressive metal has so many other promising artists.

  • Pain of Salvation is just plain amazing.

    I personally would put Metropolis part 2 up there. Even though it's obvious, I think it belongs in there. Not so much the other albums.

    ...But I'm talking about Pagan's Mind, Queensryche and Mindflow in terms of musicianship. It's a bit hard to say "Pagan's Mind's 'Enigmatic: Calling' blows Opeth's 'BWP/Still life/Deliverance' out of the water". Of course there are different tastes, I'm just personally talking in terms of melody, which is my taste.

  • @adrian30020 Do you know the band called Mind's eye & World of silence. They are incontournable metal prog band, and the 2 bands have jazz influence ?

  • Mindflow is the great brazilian band.

    Saudem o mindflow.

  • Dream Theater overrated??? Queensryche Masterpiece??? Okay DT is influenced by Queensryche, but honestly DT has taken Prog to a whole new level. Queensryche

  • @Keyboardzrock I do think DT is a phenomenal band but as a DT fan I recognise there are many great bands out there who are on a par as musicians - love Vanden Plas, Symphony X, Porcupine Tree, Threshold and more recently Haken whose debut Aquarius is frankly phenomenal so us DT fans are open to other music - I don't think DT are overrated! The problem is that some of the other bands are UNDERRATED!- I only discovered Threshold and Vanden Plas last year - they've been around 20 years or so!!

  • the only reason i like this video is the description. DT sucks ass.

  • check out Cynic omg i just discovered them. like experiental, progressive, jazz metal

  • You say DT are overrated.

    A lot of these bands emulate DT (not Queensryche, Pain of Salvation and the like) and so you call those bands overrated too.

  • shadow gallery is even better than D.T. and Aspera too by the way....D.T doesnt create anything...is only a mix between rush and yes with another sound...pains of salvation is more interesting...to hear...and even some records of angra...bands like twinspirits....Atmosfear...Ark­...etc. im with you DT is SOOO overrated...people think that petrucci is god ...what about michael harris?

  • What is the name of the Porcupine Tree song? Thanks for the music, I'm buyin a lot of it soon.
