Lord, you make a harmless "yo mamma" joke around here and get jumped on - and really, I didn't even say anything! Sounds the same but more boring - same as what? I didn't even say anything there, thus I feel no need to apologize. Now, entering a DT thread just to say they are boring and incite needless arguments - THAT ought to be apologized for. But rather than arguing with a punk I made a silly, meaningless joke. So sue me.

Wow, nothing speaks "intelligent" and "mature" like being ready to insult a person because they attacked your favorite band. IT'S UNDERSTANDABLE!! WHAT A PERSONAL OFFENSE!

Really, in this case at least, the most cliched of all internet cliches actually needs to be said: get a life.

How old are you with such a comment, I am thinking an apology would be appropriate.

Was there really any need for that remark?

I would label A DRAMATIC TURN as AWAKES good looking cousin. ☺. Also what is your favourite track? Mine is BREAKING ALL ILLUSIONS. I love that I can hear JOHN MYUNG on bass again and he came up with another lyrical gem too!!



I agree. I was looking forward to hearing what a Dream Theater album without Portnoy pulling the strings would sound like. James actually sang like himself on ADToE. He wasn't trying to sound like James Hetfield or the guy from Muse or whoever else MP wanted him to sound like.


😜 agreed!! On the COUNT OF TUSCONY, LABRIE sounds like Dave Mustaine from MEGADEATH!! Only during the chorus though. Anyway. Very true man.
Never like LaBrie copying Hetfield in that Dream-Theater-meets-Metallica song (also known as As I Am). I wish we were still in 1992...

Yup yup. I miss his style, especially the way he drums on the Count. That to me was like Portnoy's last horrah. Combinations are nuts on that track. Very good.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

Breaking all Illusions always have me smiling during the whole intro. Brilliant track. I think I laughed out loud first time I heard it.
