They started self producing actually. That's what happened. FII also had a rich production

Petrucci stopped trying on everything and just turned everything up to 11.



Mostly resorted to wank to try and cover for the lack of good songwriting too.

Idk man but everything on here sounds so nice and natural. Little to no wank at all.

Oh yea I know. I do like IAW a lot but it's still got lots of wankery and don't even get me started on Metropolis onward haha. Not the biggest fan of them, but when they mostly ditch that style, which is here basically they're amazing.

I wanna listen to more of their stuff at some point but tons of their newer stuff hasn't really given me that much incentive :/

That's because there's not a lot of feeling in their newer stuff, unfortunately.

I listened to Black Clouds and didn't really love it. Not bad, but really nothing to it for me. Haven't given Six Degrees a go yet though.

Jam Train of Thought, Octavarium, and A Dramatic Turn of Events. All three of those album closers are the best songs they ever wrote after Six Degrees.

Repentance is an amazing ballad though, at least before all the voiceovers come in.
