Actually, this is the way in they riginally recorded it. However, the record company knew that it would make too many people's heads explode so they slowed it down during production.
thats the actual recording from the album, but we, the humans, can only ear it 3x slower, so it looks like a 19-min epic song.. but for them its just a short 6-min song :]
@DJRickinson Here's the thing, though: Mangini said himself that he was not looking to REPLACE Portnoy, merely to carry on his spirit.

What's really scary is that Mike Mangini could probably play this fast...
...with one arm tied behind his back.
metalnut1120 3 months ago
@metalnut1120 wrong no one can replace mp and mangini would need at least 2 hands and still would hit only half the notes!
