OCTAVARIUM

I'm not a professional in music, so I can't make a review technically like you all have done. I'm a big DT's fan, I heard their work for the first time in Images and Works, and I can see how their personal taste of music changes through the years.. I like Images and Works, as much as I like Scenes From A Memory, which probably the DT's work which I always listen to. But I think Octavarium is different from they all. It combines many taste of music which I do love so much... I like their ballad in The Answers Lies Within, as much as I love their metal-section in Panic Attack. Of course their epic, Octavarium, probably the best DT's epic I have ever heard. I can see Rudess shines in this track, and probably this is the DT's album which the keyboardist dominates all the album. I like Kevin, I like Derek, but Rudess is my favourite. His classical style gives DT different feel from their previous album. I give 2 thumbs up for Rudess. I have bought this album yesterday, and now I can't stop listening to their best work I have ever heard.. I recommend you all to buy, at least to listen to this masterpiece. I'm sure that you'll be addicted :)
