Me encanta esta cancion!!! It's the kind of song I love hearing from Dream Theater, all progressive, all epic, all genius... unpredictable!!! I hope the album arrives soon to Ecuador so I can buy it =)
@GuitarPartner saying..greatest bands of progressive rock is an opinion, not a fact. You cant forget other musical virtuosos like adagio and old symphony x (to name a couple) ...
Nice to have a little more serious drummer than the ex (sometimes clown). This is impressive, need to hear it another 10 times to let it get branded correctly, then I'll determine it's greatness. To me of course, not to anyone else. Music is everyone's personal agenda.
@bhbhbh01 So true, a friend told me music like this really has to be listened to more than a couple times to be appreciated fully - which I agree with. It's hard to follow or predict a lot of the melodies and sequences DT uses until you have them memorized. I personally like breaking all illusions the best, especially at the 5 minute mark
@zmatokan The drumming parts were written by a computer program called "Perfect Drummer". Petrucci put in the chords and the machine gave them the drum parts. Mike Portnoy had already left when Dream Theater started the new album.
I DO know the difference, is almost obvius. Im just making a comparison between their "first" album (with labrie) and the latest. The structure is not the same but is very similar (to me)
And yeah, Im a guitar hero fan, ive been playing that like for three years, ive been hearing metal like for two, and Ive been learning music since i was FIVE years old (14 years ago), 10 of those learning and playing piano untill today............XD
@Brewzkier Well, he has more intuition than you knowledge. One example.. piano introduction with small drum fills... verse enters with guitar riff over 4/4 drum feel. The 7/8 part just in the beggining of the instrumental part it's very much like Metropolis. I still fucking love the song but the resembleance it's undeniable.
Why is it that fans like you feel the need to be a complete douchebag to newer fans? You got people who like the same band as you, at least respect that and stop being such an uptight snob.
@Brewzkier seriously why do you spam dream theater videos with guitar hero references? so fuck if people first heard dream theater on guitar hero, i would of thought its better they hear it from that than not at all?? and the fact that this song technically and musically has similarities to metropolis pt 1 it makes sense to some people that it has the same feel, or are people not allowed to express their own opinions on the music?
@jodstasic .... I've never heard an eleven minute song, in this case masterpiece, that was "radio friendly". This is some epic shit right here and so is DT.
Screw all the negative comments, I loved this album, and this song in particular is my favorite on it, they've survived without Portnoy, I liked his stuff and the entire band is extremely talented, but he wasn't what made the band, this proves it.
@Asoudo33 I agree with you. And don't buy into all the negative comments about MP either. They just have some legal details to work out and my guess is MP has much more astonishing music bottled up inside him (sorry, pun only semi-intended) to record with future collaborators, possibly even JP, and/or JR. DT's new album was worth the wait and I'm looking forward to see what happens musically in this soap opera! P.S. MP's still my favorite drummer
@Lafrontain UPDATE: Ronald S. Beinstock, an attorney for progmetal giants DREAM THEATER, has contacted BLABBERMOUTH(dot)NET to make it clear that there's currently "no pending litigation" between DREAM THEATER former drummer, Mike Portnoy.
In a letter dated Sep 20, Bienstock wrote, "On or around Apr 27 2011, Mr. Portnoy filed a 'Notice With Summons.' This is not a formal complaint. Further, it was never served on any of the named defendants. There is no pending litigation between DT and Mike."
@Lafrontain although this album is fucking great, we should not forget the amazing drumer that was portnoy, we should not forget all the epic songshe made (a change of seasons )
@Lafrontain Unless you haven't been keeping up, he didnt sue them at all, it's been confirmed. I feel he should be recognized for his efforts in DT for the past 25 years (same goes for the other members).
if you took al the instrumental sections in the album you got yourself a DT album full of ballads!!!!! all the songs fell like the SAME THING over and over again with way too radio friendly choruses, DT has disappointed SOME of their hardcore fans, and that sucks
@carnichero Kinda, because for me there are 3 or 4 songs that are really good, the other songs are just the same, they are good but there are THE SAME. I understand what you said
Mike Portnoy as we all know is a Massive talent....Massive presence behind the drum kit and yet still is a MASSIVE-Arrogant fool THAT THOUGHT HIS SHIT DID NOT STINK. I RESPECT mIKE P FOR BEING A VITAL PART OF DT...I MUST SAY HOWEVER THAT THE NEW DT...........:) HAS NOT LOST A SINGLE THING-IN FACT, THEY ARE TIGHTER,MORE FOCUSED AND LESS HUMILIATED WITHOUT YOUR ARRAGANT ASS IN THE MIX. I LOVE YA MAN...BUT ----C YA LATER and good luck with Parlor Mob and whatever else comes your way. FACT!
Mike Portnoy was an overbearing dick. It is evidenced by the freedom the band now has. That being said he was the shit and pushed them to be progressive METAL. Now its still progressive but more power metally/ Northern European I find. Truly an awesome album though, even so.
@azairek If they got a new vocalist they'd be awesome. They've got a great guitarist who has so much skill, I just think their vocalist is bringing them down.
Insult me in poor grammar if you wish, but it's my opinion. :)
James is the voice of DT. End of story. To remove James would be like changing the band completely... who would be able to replace him?
However, sometimes I do agree with you, he does get a little annoying with higher pitches notes. In this album though there aren't as many and he fits the album perfectly to be honest.
@Yamigekido I guess it's just a preference thing. And I see what you mean by taking away a key part of their band. I think a vocalist with similarities in style to Russel Allen would better suit Dream Theater.
@lmospina42 I'm sure you have access to Mike Portnoy's brain and talent....so I believe you....and as far as Portnoy vs. Mangini, Portnoy may not be the fastest drummer or even have some of the chops Mike M has, but Portnoy probably has a few tricks Mangini couldn't pull off.....bottom line, skill doesn't always trump creativity, something Portnoy is much more blessed with than Mangini the drumming is quiet and forgetable in this album, Portnoy's drumming is always playing in my head.
@JapaneseMonsters14 Creativity?.....it is gone since 6 degrees.......He is always doing the same...Some tricks?....RLRLL RLRLL RLRLRLL...Or RLRLFF RLRLRLFF RLFFRLFFRLFFRLFF....Im not telling you that he is not an excellent drummer, because he is....but sorry, he was playing like a machine and not like a drummer...Listen the last songs....He is always doing the same....Mangini is refreshing to Dream theater....
@lmospina42 jajaja i know, portnoy "ghost notes" only doing the same pattern all the time, MANGINI IS THE BIG DEAL MAKING GHOST NOTES HELL YEAH !! =D (ostinatos and rudiments as well)
This is extremely sad. The entire album has been posted before it has even been released.
