There's some "...And Justice for all" vibe to "This Dying Soul", so the graduates of the What Some Bloke in the Pub Told Me University and the Hear One Riff You Know The Whole Album Conservatory are perfectly justified in their opinion.

I'll check that track again so I can here this rip off!

There's a quotation from "Blackened" in the vocal melodies somewhere in the middle.

There's also a famous quotation from Baudelaire's "Au lecteur" in Eliot's "The Wasteland". So "The Wasteland" is a copy of "Au lecteur", then?

I don't hate it but it's a sub-par album by  Dream Theater.

Right on Progtologist- seems to be a lot of black and white opinions on the postings. What about the myriad colours between. Even a computer can cram in 16 million variations between those two extremes, and it only knows the difference between on or off

Why is it always Love it or Hate it????

Where is the "Like it" option?

I don't love it,I don't hate it,but I like it.I like the heaviness of it but think compared to their other work it is a sub-par DT album.

I don't like it even though I like metal. I think the emphasis of the album was on heaviness and they lost the sense of melody. Octavarium is better.
