My enthusiasm for the new album has been pretty much killed off by all the soap opera bullshit they've been playing up for what will be close to a year by the time the album is released. It will probably be the first DT album I just download and don't bother buying unless it happens to be exceptional.

Progressive titans Dream Theater have announced the title/release date of their new album.
(New York, NY): The recent announcement that Mike Mangini would be joining Dream Theater, replacing departed drummer Mike Portnoy caused such fanfare that Mangini was a trending topic on Twitter, second only to England's Royal Wedding. Now, the band is revealing more information about their upcoming album. The new album is titled A Dramatic Turn of Events. The much-anticipated platter, which marks Mangini's recorded debut, will be released via Roadrunner Records on September 13th and will be supported by a massive world tour.
"I'm incredibly psyched with the way this album came out and can't wait to share it with everybody," guitarist John Petrucci, who also serves as the producer for A Dramatic Turn of Events, said. "We are currently in the mix stage with the great Andy Wallace and it's all sounding amazing!"
"We have poured our hearts and minds into the creation of this album," keyboardist Jordan Rudess offered. "All the life changing events that surrounded us before, as well as during the whole process, fueled our desire to dig deep within ourselves and create the best music we possibly could."
Vocalist James LaBrie said, "In the grand scheme of Dream Theater's career, the last several months have been such an incredibly positive, fulfilling and rewarding experience. The new songs and sound has never been so spirited or rejuvenating. I cannot wait for every one of our fans to sink their audio senses into this batch of tunes."
The track listing for A Dramatic Turn of Events is as follows:
On the Backs of Angels
Build Me Up, Break Me Down
Lost Not Forgotten
This is the Life
The Shaman's Trance
Outcry
Far From Heaven
Breaking All Illusions
Beneath The Surface

I haven't been excited about a new DT album since Falling Into Infinity, but I'll still be buying this on the first day as usual.

Y'all suck lol. Also, The Count Of Tuscany is one of the best things the band has ever done, so JP still has the capability. Roll on.
Yeah I listened to the Count of Tuscany the other day.
Great music. Sucky lyrics. I dont usually pay attanetion to lyrics that much but those ones really stand out as being poor.
But yeah, as a whole, the song is awesome.

I know the story.
Petrucci met a guy in Tuscany who took him to his house and gave him a tour of his house and the surroundings.
John thought he was going to kill him and that the barrels in his basement were full of dead bodies, but wait a minute man, that's not how it is.... he was just being friendly and the barrels were full of wine.
So in short:
Hey
Hi, wanna see my house?
Sure.
Here it is.
Dont kill me.
I wasn't going to.
K.
Awesome....

Agreed. The song is awesome. The lyrics are shit. I would guess that they wrote the music first and added the lyrics later

There is a lot more to it than that, give him some credit. Read up on it more if you need to.

Reminds me of the time I was 18 in Amsterdam and I was in some dude's apartment and I thought he wanted to fuck me up the arse. Oh wait, he did.... Lucky I managed to talk my way out of it rather than having to jump out the window and break a leg to escape arse damage.
I should write a song about it! 'The Homo of Holland'.

Whenever I've looked into it I seem to come to the same conclusion as Sprucey. Is there more to it than that? If so, where?
