I like them because its all of the elements of prog-metal that no other band has yet brought to such a high level of awesome. The insane technical performances, immense song writing skills, awesome vocals, and the way they can play everything in an over the top prog metal way and have it all balance. I just feel very little of the "fast forward to the solo" as much as I feel "listen to this album and experience this fucking band!". Even with Sikth if felt that there were parts that weren't working towards an overall artistic vision, IMO.
Not to mention as a musician they are inspiring because they brought them self up into the business on their own, and recorded their own fucking-awesome-ballsauce album without any outside support until the shipping date (minus tour promotion, which Misha does on his own 90% of the time).
