Won't be able to make much of the album but a sneak peak is always good.

SC and BC&SL were decent but lets see if DT can win me back!
Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal!



Listen to doom metal, worship Satan

Looking forward to the new song and the album, but after the disaster that was Black Clouds, I'm not going to preorder.

Not to judge music I haven't heard, but all those song titles look like Enya song titles LOL
Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.

I won't pass judgement before hearing this song, but anything goes after 11AM. Wink

I was skeptical at first, just looking at the cover (Does anyone like it?), but the song is actually very good IMO. Sounds a lot like "Wither" off of BC&SL, and as DT has mentioned before it doesn't have too much of Mangini's own style to it. On a side note Myung is a freakin boss, I love his bass lines, and he has some excellent ones on this track. Definitely a 4.5/ 5 star song.

Fairly impressed. Again it's Labrie when he goes into chorus with Petrucci that jags me. Myung's bass is fabulous. Liked the keys and Petrucci is great as always. It is after all thier first single thus probably being the most "friendly mainstream" song off the album. Nothing too dramatic different from BC&SL.

I will need to listen to it several times before passing judgement, but first reaction is that it doesn't even get near anything from Black Clouds.

Listening to it now. It sounds like Dream Theater - it's pretty good.

Wow... come to think of it 2011 gave/gives us a new Dream Theater album, a new Symphony X album, the Arch / Matheos album and the Adrenaline Mob album.... sweet!

Songwriting seems a lot better than the repetitive stuff they've been doing. I like it, it sounds like it would fit right in with the rest of Octavarium, which I really liked.

That being said, I thought A Rite of Passage was great the first time I heard it, now it's my least favorite Dream Song, so I'll have to give it time. (And seriously, orchestra hits Jordan?)

Well.....let's see what we got


...with so many hyped up things (in both directions) I feel completely empty after hearing it.
GAH! I'll have to do my usual and wait 3 months after the album is out and then listen LOL

Factory of Dreams as well, best prog album this year so far for me, best album this year of any genre in fact.

Back to topic, if that is the art in the video (and I can see no reason why it isn't), then I dislike it a lot. I think I actually preferred the fan art that ended up on PA.

I hated that fan art but if that was indeed the album art, I dont care for it either.

The song IS good and has potential, but it just left me feeling nothing.
We'll see when I can hear the whole album.
