  • James LaBrie sounds WAAAY too much like James Hetfield. The solo breakdown is so awesome though.

  • constant MAUOSHOONN!!!!

  • This is my favorite kind of music, when thrash and progressive metal are combined.

    Now, i know many of you would not agree that this has thrash influences, but you have to admit, compared to their regular stuff, this is pretty agressive.

  • This song reminds me of how I feel when my medicine wears off. XD Cool.

  • haha I think it's about Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. OCD is so much more than washing your hands excessively, it's when you literally can't stop worrying about something no matter how much will you've got. I haven't been diagnosed but it would explain a lot of aspects in my life.

  • its amazing how dream theater is do god dam godly

  • wao!!!!!!!!!!

  • Can anyone play this intro? It's really fucking difficult 2 play at speed. Obviously.

  • i can... no shit... its difficult... but i can do it :)

  • I keep fucking up on the second half but the first half i can play fine. Not fast enough though.

  • the lower part? actually its easier for me than the first part... but with enough practice you can do it fine... how long have you been playig the guitar?

  • Been playing guitar about a year now, but electric only since september.

  • I can play the intro on bass. Not too difficult.

  • The intro isn't so bad. It's the solo and the off-parts (the part right before the solo and the "ob-sess-ive..." part of the second verse) that I keep fucking up.

  • 1:44 balls to the wall

  • I love the riff at 4:05

  • omg i friggen love the transition at 3:50

  • i frickin love the solo LOL

  • I frickin love BOTH lol

  • i love dream theater but something about the dudes voice

  • He doesn't normally sound like this, this track really lacks the classic DT voice (which I know can get a tad waily from time to time but I love it)

  • sorry wrong person ^_^;

  • Without Mike Portnoy and John Petrucci, this band would suck...majorly.

  • Without Mike and John P, the band wouldn't even exist. If that was some kind of attack on John M, Jordan and James, then you are an idiot, because they are all great as well.

  • the drummer is insane

  • What is with all this feminine defensive "that's my opinion" bullshit. If you need to validate your modesty by stating the obvious than you need some fucking help. The entire idea of "opinion" is stupid in the first place. There are two kinds of thoughts, intelligent ones and stupid ones, and perhaps a couple shades of grey. The main problem is that when dealing with opinions, an intelligent person with a valid statement can be discredited by any moron who can utter that previous idiotic phrase.

  • chill then

  • in your opinion :P

  • I don't see them functioning well with another band, is what I'm saying. (Don't get me wrong, everyone in this band is \m/)

  • dream theater will always rock..the best progressive metal band..the second best..is opeth XD

  • ghotica, is sounds like that because there are two people singing at the same time. Look at the Constant Motion in Studio vid & you will know

  • la mejor banda de los ultimos años,calidad para componer y para interpretar,por favor vuelvan a la Argentina

  • lol that solo and the synth solo are INZANE

  • The hell does this sound like Metallica? John is better then Kirk imo.... Also Lars kisses Mikes ass.

  • the DT members are definitely better at playing, but saying that Metallica has not influenced DT in even the smallest way is just a lie, as so much modern metal is influenced by Metallicas early work.

  • this guy is wayy better than james.

  • dude what the hell? he is not even in the same category at james. this guy honestly is terrible. the guitars and drums are great thats why i listened to this song.

  • he has much better songs, but listen to this chorus man. Best metal singer is either labrie or Bruce (Iron maiden)

  • The drummer is better than lars by far..the guitarist vs kirk in his prime?...no lol. but still a good song non the less.

  • u most have never heard james singing learning to live..theres not bad metal singers..just diferent styles..

  • I claim that they're both great and have different styles.

    I like Metallica more though.

  • He does not normally sound like this

  • One of the best riffs ever!

  • DT are much better than Metallica man!

  • lol......

    what the fuck man? is this competition?

    metallica are history....

    dream theater is my fav PROGRESSIVE band...

    of course, if u take a look at the "dexterity and skills" DT is far more advanced than Metallica.

  • No its not competition at all i'm just saying that Metallica have had there day and it shows, Dream Theater are still making awesome music today with no signs of slacking at all. Thats what i meant skill wise DT are much better and i prefer most of their music. I saw them twice, once in Newcastle City Hall with Tomera and again in Manchester with Symphony X who were also phenomenal.

  • okay i know alotof people will hate me for what im about to say but, DT probably the most skilled band out there one of the best drummers best guitarists best keyboardist and bassist in my opinion but what kinda drags them down is the singer he isnt to great i think mike i better at singing just saying but i still think DT is amazing so yeah dont hate me its just an opinion

  • wtf one picture shows john fat and another shows him skinny and then another shows him BUFF

  • all hail photoshop

  • this song made me a fan

  • there's 'fan' and there's 'fanboy fanatic supernerd'. nothing wrong with either, but when you debate on who is more a 'fan' then you automatically become... well, stupid.

    Dream Theater is awesome, nuff said. They can kill anything Metallica made after 1991.

  • i dont debate on who is more of a fan..im saying they are the kind of band that people get so into them that they know every riff, lyric, and beat from every song in their catalogue.

  • why am i a douche-fag for enjoying music that much? i have no life for loving music? ok...that makes sense.if i listen to a lot of music and have heard songs so many times that i can pick them apart riff by riff, isnt that a good thing. doesnt that mean im dedicated to what i love and my hobbies, such as drumming along to their CDs? your telling me that you dont know a song by heart?

  • I completly agree with you mate.

    I' m passionate about music aswell respect to you.

    Perp back off, you havent got the right to call im a "douche-fag" <-- (nice use of the english language their)

  • thanks for the back-up

  • i watched perpetchmotel's drum video and he looks to be about 12-14, so i guess i could expect this from someone who hasn't quite matured, although when i was 14 (2 years ago) i was just as mature as i am now.

  • yeah dream theater is good i think rush is better Neil Alex and geddy make the best trio

    but mike portnoy is the youngest guy to enter hall of fame 4 drummers so that makes him a little more impressive than Niel but that's my opinion

  • i love rush also and i do agree that they are the best trio band out there that i can think of, off the top of my head. personally, i like DT more...my opinion.

  • '(nice use of the english language their) '

    No offense to you, but i found that hilarious :P

    I agree, if you're passionate about music, why is that a bad thing? I could name any Rammstein song (except from their new album, that sucked) just from a few seconds of it. I'm not a 'douche-fag'

  • i dident call yo ua douche - fag -.-

  • i know you didnt, that bit wasnt aimed at you

  • my bad.:P

  • dont know why i got so many thumbs down, i meant in this that the people who love dream theater, like me, are passioniate about the music they make, because its genius.

  • i have a question who does the second solo

  • Jordan Rudess, the keyboardist. :)

  • Amazing....just simply...amazing....the solos in this are killer.

  • For some reason, the shortened version seems to drag on too long. I get bored listening to it.

    Yet the full version flows perfectly for some reason.

  • I apologize for mentioning Rock Band, but which version is going to be the one for DLC? This one or the shortened one?

  • This one.

  • Holy crap, its hellashes! Thanks for answering. I'm glad its going to be this one. You're a beast.

  • Just a shame you won't be able to do the keyboard solo on it lol.

  • only 14 months? then i have no time perspectiv what so ever ty for letting me know my mistaces toughXD

  • ojala q nunca se separen!

    dream theater never die!

  • nice heard this song some years ago and cant get enough of it, nice vid too.

  • The song just came out 14 months ago. How did you hear it years before?

  • Muy bueno el tema, pero me parece muy parecido a Blackened de Metallica...

    Saludos!

  • So you'd prefer a shortened crap-remake over the truly excellent full version?

  • Just face it, the full version is WAY better.

  • True and they made the damn solo too hard in the game.. yeah that's right. I'm talking about Rock Band. All shall flame me D:

  • hey no shame too you. alot of people like rock band and yes the solo is impossible lol

  • That's for sure =]

  • The official video is only watchable in the USA :P

  • jeez!! why you got to analyze the mo fo song? ,..leave it up to the guys in the band to do that shit ,..just enjoy this , man...This RockZzz! thnx for adding this!

  • jeez!! why you got to analyze the mo fo song? ,..leave it up to the guys in the band to do that shit ,..just enjoy this , man...This RockZzz! thnx for adding this!

  • ok the riffs are really stuff Metallica invented just like Iron Maiden Invented Gallopping, but still, Labrie's voice ain't a bit like Hetfield :S Although Portnoy does backing vocals in this song alot and i don't know if Petrucci has a role in that too.

  • Iron Maiden invented galloping?, lolwut, have you ever head Achilles' Last Stand bassline, if no..please do yourself a favor and check it so you dont go around giving out ignorant facts anymore

  • Yes i have dumb twat and if you know how long Iron Maiden and Dream Theater exist you know that Iron Maiden DID actually invent it and if another band gallops alot doesn't mean they invented it.

  • Dwuh? Rock bands inventing galloping? Sorry, mates, go back to early Japanese Samisen music. Or shall we go for african drummers who used the exact same technique?

    Galloping is nothing new. Get used to it.

  • hehe, maybe you should look at the FULL story and know that we were talking about bassguitar, just don't bother us again.

  • Um, the hooved animals invented galloping ok, not people. People invented human-made sound, and one of those was galloping, inspired by the hooved animals

  • I don't think Maiden "invented" Gallpoing, just revolutionized it. Just like Van Halen and tapping and Yngwie Malmsteen and sweeping. They didn't invent those techniques, they were LONG in existence before the two, they just revolutionized em.

  • What's up with everyone compairing DT and Metallica? Both are great in their respective genres and are awesome metal bands either way. Can't we just shut up and listen to the music?

  • I put +1, but I wish I could put +1000000000000000000000000000

  • Agreed

  • evrey1s sayin it sounds like metallica cause theres a petrucci parody sayin its like them, its accualy pretty funny, and it kinda does sound like them

  • 0verseer69,

    I'm pretty sure the parody came about because of people saying it sounded like Metallica, not the other way around. JP would do that because he's willing to make fun of himself.

  • I guess these vocals remind me more of John Bush than Hetfield. wow! and Phil Rind (Sacred Reich) too! very very much...

  • that song show's hot metallica shoult to play :D

  • that song kicking , shit like metallicka but much better :D

  • Sounds like the 3rd song in the black album ahaha

    Just LaBrie's voice is higher

  • sounds like Rush and Metallica; in a good way though. This song is badass

  • hey ari :P

  • Is that HETFEILD SINGING lol

    nah this is a very metallicaish version of dream theater

  • Jordan Rudess looks like the Joker!

  • john myung for president

  • hey guys don`t get me wrong Dream Theatre is much progressive than Metallica in any kind of way

  • dt fucking rules...

    i cant wait to see them live again in mexico.......

    i love MP´s voice...

  • hey, check it out im the second guy with mike in the blue and white shirt! astro is gay

  • they sounded great live

  • I love the JP back vocals!

  • I'm pretty sure it's actually Portnoy doing them, but I agree, they're awesome.

  • I love this song, I don't care if it sounds like Metallica. DT is awesome!! And I love those pictures! I wish you had more on there.

  • hep iyiydi hala da süper şuan mükemmel :D

  • Saying a riff sounds like metallika is like saying this taste reminds me of food when eating. Metallica has played every hardrock riff there is.

  • whyd they take out so much in the music video?

  • 01:05 reminds me of metallica

  • you are right mate it sounds a bit like metallica`s riff

  • so did the vocals. The song is called Holier than Thou from the Black Album

  • True........

  • oh well, Dream Theatre are still fuck good.

  • BTW those two comments are suppose to be togthers, they were just too long to put into one box.

    READ THE BOTTOM ONE FIRST THEN THE TOP ONE

  • Well today, I just found out that album that my friend had given me was not ACTUALLY the real dream theaters album!! I went out and bought a REAL copy and its SOO amazing!! SUITS ME RIGHT FOR GETTING A CD FROM A FRIEND

  • LMAO!!!

  • HOLY CRAP!!!!! I got this album from a friend and I listened to it and I said "This sucked ass" and he promptly agreed. A few months went on and I said it sucked to all my friends and they said I was on crack..

  • not really a metal fan but i cant write DT as anything less than super awesome!!! thier musicians are really good....expecially the drummer.....anyone who doesnt think this is good stuff really cant appriciate the technical difficullity of this song

  • clearly any retard who thinks DT is not a good band is an idiot. I understand that people may not like their sand and i appreciate that but unless you are really into music you cant truly appreciate how technical and difficult this bands music really is. In short DT has everything mainstream pop wishes it could have TALENTED MUSICIANS

  • hear hear

  • "YAWN THEATER"????. Ok,

    1: You're gay

    2: If you're not gay, you're retarded

    3: If you'renot retarded, you simply don't know shit about music and you're just stupid.

    4: If you dont like a band, just say so, dont trash it asshole.

    Oh and I agree with the FF7 guy...."11 year old gir"...anyways, thanks for leaving a comment, now fuck off.

  • olastrax knows wat he's talking about...

  • le meilleur groupe de rock progressif a voir sur scene absolument, à paris

  • Le meilleur groupe de rock du monde, peut-etre? Je dirait que oui.

  • meilleur groupe du monde en métal proressif,aprés j'ai vu d'autres groupes qui sont les meilleurs dans leur catégories

  • Je dirait que oui, aussi :)

  • in the videoclip doesn't exist this part of bass solo

  • dream theater's the best band around right now.

    To InvertedNecroSatan ... death metal sucks.lay off the dracula tabs.

  • With all the music DT has put out,it's always amazing how they find something new and different to play...and as for invertedasforaface,I looked at your favorites and it's mostly some idiot playing fart noises with his hands and some cartoon called dr.rabit,what a looser you are.

  • There is nothing in the world that every single person likes and that's understandable. If you don't like this then don't listen to it. Making negative comments like that is not only annoying, it proves your own ignorance and that you have nothing better to do than criticize others.
