I think you should look for individual songs with meaningful and powerful lyrics that empower you.

Best...Band...Ever!
And they're on tour with Iron Maiden! Up the irons!

I wouldn't say the best band ever, but the album is probably the best in Progressive Rock history.

Now if I add mine, it'd be:

Opeth is a brilliant band, and this album is a testament to their brilliance.

Personally, I think Metropolis Pt.2 is far superior.

Well, "best" is highly subjective, even if we agree on a set of measures, I find that DT latest offerings are nowhere near the earlier albums IMHO.
The "best" band ever has to be Rush of course, didn't you know that :D Well, I play bass so I'm a little biased here LOL.

Have you listened to the "Mercy Falls" album by Seventh Wonder? I suggest it as a challenge for a bass player. :)

Les Claypool is a great player, but Primus music is not my cup of tea, I'm more of RHCP fan for funky stuff.
