I love Portnoy's beefy drum sound on this record. Mangini's drums sound great on the new record, but they make me miss Portnoy's in-your-face style a little bit. Of course it did come at the expense of Myung being a bit buried. Mixing is a very delicate art.
@TheGreenGringo Exactly. I consider this one of their worst songs but i still like it. Great riffs, extremely over the top "Bad guy" vocals that are so bad they are good and an over the top strange instrumental interlude. This is one hell of an entertaining song.
@metzepp as do I...but for some reason a lot of fans and critics didn't care for this one too much...thus, for what I've heard many call their "bad" album, it's GREAT! :D
To be honest, I have yet to be disappointed with this group :)
there is a dream theater hater out there his name is "MIKEPORNTOY" lets all spam his youtube account and hope we get him baned from youtube copy and paste to as many dream theater videos as you can lets get this fag of off youtube STARTED BY ''tehbuzz2"
@raZer979 Why do I care, you ask? The very same reason that you would care what kind of underwear I wear. In other words, I don't give two flying fucks. lmao
This is how i don t like DT to play in the future, Portnoy s shit ideas. They should give up trying to introduce commercial riffs and stupid voices like main stream teen age mtv bands. Middle instrumental part is real DT, rest is total crap.
@kjsoccerronaldo10 How do u realized portnoy is better? The music from the new album is composed with Portnoy, Mangini is just doing his parts. Also In the musicians world, Mangini is considered way better drummer than Portnoy. So if u don t like the drums from OTBOA blame Portnoy not Mangini. At audition he had no trouble playing exactly Portnoy s parts, too easy for a drummer of his status. Before making statements like this, think a little and don t just repeat what other idiots said b4.
@DanScurtuAvatar im not repeating other idiots i prefer portnoys technique better than mangini. you don't need to get all defensive over two good drummers. BUT PORTNOY IS SO MUCH FUCKING BETTER @ COOLER!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I was first introduced to DT, I got confused and thought this song was the Dance of Eternity... It was truly a good day when I found the error of my ways. Both great examples of how music should be.
Sorry but, DT does this so fucking much. They're extremely talented, but there are countless songs where the intro is fucking great here, but then it gets cheesy/ruined... like when the vocals came in.
@SputniksArmy really? when the vocals come in i think thats just epic thats like my favorite part. i love the effects on the vocals too. ill admit they do alot of random unnecessary shit in there music but i think thats there just to make it more difficult
@aero3132 Tbh, aside from the odd time sigs, because those are just to make things more fancy, but i'd expect them to be more mature to just want to have everything as difficult as possible... like i said, difficulty doesnt not equal good music.
@SputniksArmy It's not about fancy. They're well-schooled musicians who have been in the business for years and are different people from you. They look at it all differently and from a different angle than you. It's their style and what they like. They don't write it for you or anyone else, just themselves, and some people happen to enjoy it. If you don't, or don't understand I'm sorry, but it's good music to some people. Opinions are just that.. opinions. Don't like it? Sorry
@aero3132 Bang on the mark. It's better to write something you, as a band enjoy a lot, and have people like it for that. Instead of writing it the way people want you too.
I know this is probably the wrong place to post a comment like this, but I'm sure many will agree:
Dream Theater's that gateway band you listen to once you've already discovered Rush or Zeplin. While some fans continue to be close minded and listen exclusively to DT, many more move on to the various subgenres of metal. It's like a house, with Rush being the front porch, DT being the landing, the dining room, kitchen, backporch and living room being the various other metal bands that follow.
@axlflight part of the glory of dream theater. they do everything from head-bang songs to scratch your head complex songs, to sit down and cry (in a manly way) songs, to pretty much everything.
