OCTAVARIUM

I used to listen to 11/8 10/8 alternated, patterns terminated before i was expecting, moving in me something like refreshing surprise... now I find out that these guys are able to play even 4/4 8/8 16/16 32/32 64/64 and maybe 128/128, also thanx to the ability of Rudess, the only active musician in this album. I felt really deluded by this work... everyone could play it after 3 days and everyone can sing its songs without running the risk to go out of time... I hope this is not the motor for producing this stuff, cause a weak album can be even forgiven, given that they've recorded their solo album 3 months before this one, but if it should be another change of season the only think left to a scarred dreamer as i feel now is to say a sad goodbye to those guys, wishing them to become more popular as they actually are... but don't expect to see me between the guys at your concert... the one of tomorrow could be my last DT live show i'll attend.
