Mine would be Breaking All Illusions too. Mangini is a good drummer, but hell, I miss Portnoy's playing. Sometimes he could become a bit invasive, but I love is Peart-ish style :(

I, personally, consider A Drammatic Turn of Events one of their three best albums...


😃 yeah!! I think Portnoy. With his O.c.d and all, was too controlling and kind off screwed up the band's sound. They were really starting to deviate away from the sound that Images and Words as well as AWAKE have. I think what makes A DRAMATIC TURN OF EVENTS so good is that it takes after the AWAKE album. 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!!
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

Six degrees is my least favourite DT album by a very long way. I'm pleased that Maglini has replaced Portnoy because I am not  a great fan of his intrusive drumming, I really hope that Maglini can show some restraint like all truly great drummers do.
What?

Herman Li is a clown, a clown of the circus of shredders, not a guitarist. Just like M. A. Batio. Petrucci is a great musician, with a huge theoric and technical background, he's jazz trained and he could play almost every genre on the earth. Being fast at playing is just the top of the iceberg. Listen to the Lines In The Sand solo and you'll know what I mean.

If Mike Manglani is "THE (FACTUALLY) Greatest" Drumist in the world because he has broken the world record for having St Vitus Dance while holding a drummering batton then it logically follows that "THE (FACTUALLY) Greatest" Guitarer in the world would be the one that has broken the world record of holding a guitarering pick while suffering from a similar debilitating affliction.

If John Petchouli can't play fast then he isn't the (factually) greatest guitarer- that's official. Geek
