oh man i can understand if you dislike Dance of Eternity but otherwise it never goes to that look-at-me wankery like they often do

i'll admit this isn't their worst in that respect but there's a sort of indescribable soullessness about it, like an incredibly shiny modern skyscraper that's just too perfect for its own good

it's about 95% look-at-me wank and 5% interesting guitar work


Not really. Beyond This Life (instrumental section) and Dance of Eternity are the only songs on here that are full on wank.

that was in reference to their catalogue generally, not this album specifically - i did mention this was one of their less wanky efforts

Fair enough. That's definitely applicable to some of their more recent material.

lol. i just feel like when an insanely technical band like this writes a concept album, it instantly comes off as cheesy cause who gives a fuck about the lyrics?

It isn't insanely technical like those technical death metal bands, their technical aspects are still enjoyable and discernible, it's just that they need to move on from that style of composing music now.

its insanely technical in a totally different way. petrucci and ESPECIALLY rudess write some super involved stuff that 10000bpm techdeath bands couldnt play
