Symphony X - Russel Allen - one of, if not THE best vocalist in the business. Michael Romeo - one of, if not THE best guitarist in the business... not just for his playing though; he writes the orchestration for the songs as well.

Arjen Lucasson (Ayreon) says he is the best singer in the world alive. I agree that he is the best in his singing style I have ever heard. Devin Townsend is super awesome as well but different. There are these "one singer, 18 voices" challenges here on youtube, which are really good, but I never saw anybody dare to imitate one of those two. Maybe they don´t know ''em, idk. Hansi Kürsch from Blind Guardian is also veeery good and unique, but a little bit less diversified.

3:47....yeah Kel, it does that to me too. Crazy, i don't think I had ever listened to this. I love this band but aside from a couple of albums, I haven't heard most of their earlier stuff. This is on my next-to-buy list. (P.S. I used to be in a band with Lou Gramm's brother!). Not sure if you've done this yet but you guys gotta check out their album V: The New Mythology. It's SX's Images & Words and should have made them household names in the prog world. In my opinion, these guys are as good as DT, but perhaps not quite as varied.

You guys keep hitting my sweet spot for Prog, Prog metal and in other vids symphonic metal. Love that you guys like this! And to me Russell Allen has one of best voices out there! Go find some of his stuff with Trans Siberian Orchestra ... he has an awesome set of pipes!! This album that Accolade II is off of, was my first Symphony X album and my first thought when I heard Russell Allen was actually Steve Walsh from Kansas. Strong wonderful voice. Want more Symphony X? I love most anything on Iconoclast or Underworld albums. Try "When All is Lost" off the former ... "Nevermore" from the latter.

When digging Nightwish and Symphony X, you should sort out Dutch guitar virtuoso Arjen Lucassen's project Ayreon. Has most folk of any importance from the Prog Metal scene as guest musicians. Better stock-up on supplies when going down that route because it might be a couple of months before you emerge again, with singers from Dream Theatre, Symphony X, Magnum, Stratovarius, Nightwish, Epica, Blind Guardian, etc. Aryeon albums to check, amongst others, are "01011001" (Liquid Eternity, Beneath The Waves) and The Source (The Day That The World Breaks Down). Ayreon's albums all form a story about the inhabitants of a planet where technology has run amok and folks are trying to pick up the pieces. And speaking of Magnum; lend your ear to Sacred Hour from their 1982 Chase The Dragon album.

If you want to experience something rather unique in this area of metal with prog elements and look for a bit of harsh vocals sneaking in as well while keeping this hopeless melodical theme and solid riffs then your next stop should be Constantine - The darkest grace . Its a 14 min fascinating long ride with all the good stuff prog metal has to offer composition and instrumental wise, those slowdowns and accoustic parts that adds to the song and bring new kind of energy , neat transitions with some definitely melodeath influences as well as classic heavy metal. Vocals are a bit edgy but they will grow on you, some parts are harsh but not necessary death but rather thrash. For the sake of not making a definition size word let's just call this again prog power metal 😃 Pls react to this man, it's so refreshing from a prog fan point of view at least.

#painintheask #metaljourney #curveball I want to throw you guys a curveball on your metal journey. Not sure if you have seen Frog Leap Studios here on the Tube. He does metal covers of all kinds of songs. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gtqBiK1-p66cpXk.html is his cover of Adele's Hello - metal style. If you are on a metal journey, then this a a wrong turn down a one way street that leads you to something you may have never found otherwise and is fun and worth it to check out even if you don't react to it.

Love your reactions, enough that I'll actually request a song for the first time ever: Fates Warning - Still Remains Fates Warning is of course one the pioneers of progressive metal but relatively unknown in the grand scheme of things. This is my favourite song by them, a 16-minute epic with incredible vocals from Ray Alder, fantastic drumming by Mark Zonder, very atmospheric keyboards by Kevin Moore (ex-Dream Theater), etc. Here's a link to a version on KZfaq: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qJ2hlaWlvbuwf4U.html

After seeing the reaction you gave to Symphony X, I have a request. Out of all the reactors throughout the KZfaq-verse, not one individual has reacted to one of my favorite bands -- that being Royal Hunt. Like Symphony X, they are a symphonic band with some prog metal tendencies. These guys have been in the game for 27 years and other than Asia and portions of Europe, don't have (unfortunately) much of a following. What I am requesting is that you throw this band some shade and react to the song - Silent Scream. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nr59hsSmtp7VdYk.html Thank you in advance.

As good as Dream Theater are I just can’t get into Labrie’s vocals.They are weak compared to what that band provides musically.The first time I heard Symphony X with Russel Allen’s voice there was no going back to DT for my Progressive needs.No offense to DT fans.It’s just my personal preference.

I actually agree. I'm a big Dream Theater fan but Russell Allen is a much more powerful vocalist than James LaBrie, especially live.
