oh hooray... another DT album... how can i contain my excitement.

 

[SilentRealm]

lmao zach.

yeah lets just wait and see what the reviews are first. never was huge on dt, so i'm in no rush to get it

 

[ProgMetalFan]

oh no... not Kevin Shirley!!!!!


I'll have to listen to this album before I buy it... after "Six Degrees of Intestinal Flatulance"... the song titles are cool, though

 

[Connauch]

That sounds pretty interesting, judging from the song titles it looks like its going to be some sort of "as I lay dieing" style deal following the last few moments of a dieing man or something along those lines.
Hopefully their will be some samples up soon, I really dig DT.

 

[ThXinc]

This album more than any other will determine the final direction!

 

[MagentaPork]

I dont know where this guy got his information because DT hasn't released any information on the new album except that there will be an instrumental track. I think they are afraid of releasing previews of albums because of 6 degrees.

silly

 

[The Stormbringer]

7 songs with a total of, say, 70+ minutes... looks to be an old-fashioned Prog album without fancy... no double album, no concept album (or is it? The song titles sound as if they were connected to each other in some way...). Very good!

 

[Soul of Ice]

It does look interesting, I liked 6 degrees more than Scenes anyway. My complaint of DT is that LaBrie uses too much reverb and sometimes the music is a few minutes too long in each song.


ps Am I the only one who thinks "The Glass Prison" is an awesome song? Everyone seems to slam it.

 

['Shuggah]

I like "the Glass Prison".

Symphony X and Dream Theater are the only two bands on my 'must buy' list, so I'm looking forward to this album. (John Petrucci! *fanboy squeal*)

 

[The Stormbringer]

"The Glass Prison" is great! The scratching bit sucks, but it doesn´t detract from the greatness of the song. The beginning and the end are particularly fabulous!

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

Yes, I'll be wary of this after 6DoIT.

 

[Demonspell]

I was disappointed with SDOIT, but not enough to prevent me from buying this album...and I'm expecting either a concept piece or lyrics full of self-examination...

 

[The Metal Chick]

Yeah I'll probably buy this one, but I'm not gonna rush out to the stores the day it comes out. I actually like Six Degrees a lot, but I'm kinda burnt out on DT.

 

[OfSinsAndShred]

I like DT, and I liked the first CD of SDOIT, so I'll buy it soon after it comes out.

 

[Velocity]

DT is my favourite band. Im really lokking forward to it. I also got tickets to their consert in Oslo Spectrum!!!

 

[theodyssey]

Heh... in case there was any doubt mine was all sarcasm. Not to say DT is bad, but they just don't do it for me. Though it is amusing to see mow much debate a few song titles can inspire

don't worry, i do the same with bands like dimmu, so i'm not makin' fun of y'all. In fact, i did the same with iced earth.

hahahah, totally dude. I used to be a big DT bitch but I'm not too interested in them anymore. I thought 6DoiT sucked, honestly. I still think the best thing they ever did (and will ever do) is A Change of Seasons.

 

[Chris Brooks]

I hate to say it, but I wont buy DT albums blindly anymore and haven't done for a while. Between Portnoy producing again, Shirley mixing, and the early premise of it being a "classic metal" album, I'm, gonna have to reserve funds until I hear some samples. But I'll be listening with open ears.
