Which DREAM THEATER Drummer Plays With More 'Feel': MIKE MANGINI Or MIKE PORTNOY? JOHN PETRUCCI Weighs In

DREAM THEATER guitarist John Petrucci has dismissed suggestions that Mike Mangini has a more "robotic" drumming style than that of Mike Portnoy, saying that Mangini is "one of the most talented" musicians he has ever had the opportunity to play with.

Mangini joined DREAM THEATER in late 2010 through a widely publicized audition following the departure of Portnoy, who co-founded DREAM THEATER more than 30 years ago.

During a brand new interview with Mike The Music Snob, Petrucci was asked how he feels about criticism from some DREAM THEATER fans about Mangini's supposed lack of "feel" compared to the playing style of Portnoy.

"I can't wrap my head around that thought — being a person who plays with Mike [Mangini], the guitarist said.

"I mean, first of all, listen, I understand being a fan of a band and having a member change disrupt your whole world. I get it. I'm a fan of bands [where] that happens," he continued. "So that side I understand. But the concept or the thought that Mike Mangini, as a drummer, is lacking feel — that blows my mind, because the guy is just unbelievable. He is one of the, if not the most talented drummer I've ever, ever had the opportunity to play with. We can call out styles of music, and he has authentic feel to play anything from metal to rock to Latin to jazz to swing to shuffle. He's just a monster, monster musician."

Petrucci added: "Listen, comparisons will be made, and people feel nostalgic about past members. People are still saying things like that about other earlier members, and that's fine, and I get it. I get it to a point, but when people say things that are just really ridiculous, [I feel] like reaching through [the computer screen], like Homer choking Bart Simpson. 'Are you kidding me right now? Do you have any idea what you're saying?' This guy is the feel machine. He is a feel monster."

In a 2017 interview with Rockhok, Portnoy said that had "no longing to reunite" with DREAM THEATER, but claimed that he would return to his former band "for the fans." "I'm a very sentimental person and I have a lot of great, fond memories of those guys and the times," he explained. "I'm a sentimental guy, so I would never close the door on it. So, really, the ball's in their court, honestly. [But] if you're asking me the odds [of a reunion happening], I would say, don't bet on it, because I know their personalities as well and I don't think they're the type that are looking backwards."

Portnoy added that he is "always [just] a phone call away" from playing with any of his former bandmates. "Like I said, [I'm] a sentimental guy and I don't hold grudges. Life is too short for resentments and I always forgive. So, yeah, the door is always open for me. But that being said, like I said, it's not something I'm looking for or wanting to do. I would be very content to never do it again. If there's more in the future, that's their phone call to make."

Less than two years ago, Portnoy told Loud that he left DREAM THEATER because he wanted to expand his musical horizons. "[I didn't] want to go to my grave and just be the drummer from DREAM THEATER," he said. "I knew there was way more to what I had to offer."

Petrucci previously told "The Classic Metal Show" that he "wouldn't have done anything differently" in the way DREAM THEATER went about finding a replacement for Portnoy.

"Mike Mangini really helped us to get through a major bandmember change, and in a way, that was probably as smooth as any bandmember change could have gone," he said. "The way that he came in, his personality, his skills as a drummer, his background, his history… it clicked to the point where it was, like, if we would have met Mike [Mangini] 20 years ago, we would have been playing with this guy. If I would have grown up with him, I would have been friends with him jamming. And that's rare."

DREAM THEATER's 14th studio album, "Distance Over Time", will be released on February 22. The disc, which marks the first for the band's new label InsideOut Music, was produced by Petrucci, mixed by Ben Grosse and mastered by Tom Baker.

И действительно надо быть сказочным долбаёбом, чтобы ставить под сомнение мастерство этого парня

Reflection

Саня Манякин играет с большим чувством. А что за люди в тексте - непонятно.

Caustic

Интересно, какого ответа они ждали? Даже если Петруха был бы согласен с тем, что Портной играет с бОльшим чувством, то он бы этого не сказал, ибо сегодня он играет с Mangini.

29 янв 2019

Petrucci

Конечно же Портной... Он и только он...

Имхо, насчет чувства не знаю, на партии Портного поинтереснее будут. Концерты смотришь, такое ощущение Мангини возьмет и свалится со стула, напряжно ему партии Портного даются, в то время как Портной стучал по барабанам, выделывал какие то пируэты и успевал общаться с публикой.

Ну епта. Совсем е*анулся?

Портной сочнее выдавал. Ну а Мангини, да, просто машина. Абсолютно механически и не интересно играет. Недавно в очередной раз при прослушивании Статического Импульса ЛаБри в очередной раз убедился, что взяв Вилдоера Театралы бы возможно еще продолжили путные альбомы выдавать, но увы... А вообще тайно надеюсь на реюньон, ибо что ДТ, что Портной отдельно не могут, так как могли вместе.

Робот обсуждает, кто из двух других роботов играет человечнее? Интересно.

Xander, надо быть полным идиотом, чтобы писать про мастерство, когда претензии к чувствам, а не мастерству.

30 янв 2019

UX2

а что он должен был сказать? та вы знаете он полное дерьмо по сравнению с Портным (так и есть)

30 янв 2019

Xander

Orthodox, нет, достаточно быть просто невнимательным

hellrider88

Логично, что Петруччо не станет опускать нынешнего драммера тем более публично, это граничило бы с безумием=)А по факту Мангини звучит как драм-машина, не умаляя его технических достоинств. Достаточно включить "I&W" и сравнить с новыми треками. Может дело в самой барабанной установке хз...

Я за Портного!
Посмотрим, что будет на новом альбоме DT, но SoA это наконец-то то, что я так долго ждал от Портнишки, ещё и с таким звёздным составом и таким мощным материалом.

С самого первого альбома с Мангини чего то не хватает. Вроде он и офигенен,но не хватает чего то,лично для меня,необъяснимого. Может это тупо понимание,что Портной был с самого начала...он может менее быстр,но более мелодичен что ли... ПС всегда не мог для себя решить,кто круче - Портной или Террана))
