| The most emotional album I've ever heard, it connects with me on so many levels. While I'd first heard a few songs from this album a year or two ago and paid no mind to them, I eventually found myself listening to the full album some time later, and it's been one of my favorites ever since. |
| Opeth Heritage | 3.0 |
| Songs were disjointed, sounded fairly similar, and it just didn't hold my interest overall. Fairly disappointed. |
| Dream Theater A Dramatic Turn of Events | 4.0 |
| After Portnoy's departure, many were unsure of the fate of DT. This album proves that they've still got everything it takes to be an amazing band, releasing one of their best records since SDOIT, and, quite possibly, one of their best overall. |
