A DRAMATIC TURN OF EVENTS

I saw recently that this album has been nominated for a Grammy award. Where it is great to see that A Progressive Rock band has been nominated, I can't see it with A Dramatic Turn Of Events. My two favourote DT albums are Images And Words and Octavarium. IAW is a five star album for me, Octavarium is four star. For me Dramatic Turn Of Events doesn't have the same impact on me as both the above mentioned albums. That doesn't mean that I think bands should always stick to a fomula. I like my progressive rock bands to "progress". After the band spilt recently DT have done a great job in finding an excellent replacement drummer but for me there isn't enough great music on here to warrant giving it above a three star rating.
