Would it be allowed to add the new Dream Theater album? All the info is in (track listing, release info, band members), just not the album art. I added the album to MMA and it looks like this:

I don't know if no album art is acceptable to add an album.

Is it so urgent? Please wait if not until September but at least when the cover will be available.

The sooner that it is added the sooner all of the 5 star and 1 star reviews can be posted or written by people who either love or hate the band but haven't actually heard the music and it really wouldn't matter if they did because they would probably give them the same ratings/reviews even if they heard the music.

I have terribly low hopes. I started hating them ever since Train of Thought, and it got progressively worse with each subsequent record, culminating in me nearly condemning Black Clouds as a poisonous abomination. I got very low hopes.

"Keyboards and continuum"

The Continuum is a controller. No need to differentiate.

Mmmmmm...well as far as I know when Rudess recorded with the Continuum in the past it could not generate audio, and even now I doubt he uses it's own sounds. I suppose they consider its sound unique enough to list it as an instrument when it's really used as a controller.

Please remove the album cover from the page. It is NOT the official cover. Don't post a cover until it has been officially confirmed by the band.

It is a fan made cover from this page: http://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=23734.0" rel="nofollow - http://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=23734.0

Here's my pre-review:
 
Dream Theater is back with a vengeance. Literally. Despite losing drummer Mike Portnoy, the band has hardly missed a step.  Their unique blend of metal, hard rock and classic prog sensibilities remain intact, although the lyrics have become almost incomprehensible.
 
James LaBrie is in good voice as he chants this mysterious mantra throughout the album:
"Skcus yontrop!
Skcus yontrop!
Skcus yontrop!
Skcus yontrop!
 
Alternated with:
"Uoy deen t'nod ew!
Uoy deen t'nod ew!
Uoy deen t'nod ew!
Uoy deen t'nod ew!"
 
I'm sure it must mean something.
 
The rest of the band plays well, although bassist John Myung can be heard weeping in the background of the quiet passages. 
 
The album cover sports this note from the band "Dream Theater is pleased to announce that from now on, all of the band can mug for the camera on the big screen on stage with us.  Thanks fans."  I can't wait.
 
Eleventy!!!!1!!!111!!!!1!!!! stars.

Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

yea that is not the album cover. Can an admin edit or delete the album altogether??

***EDIT*** the continuum has been credited to Rudess separately from 'keyboards', 'piano', etc.. since Octavarium. It DOES have its own sound, and one should be able to notice it on their last 3 albums. It is very prominent in Octavarium, Sacraficed Sons, Constant Motion, A Nightmare to Remember, and more.
