I've actually been enjoying the hell out of this one recently. Might eventually bump to a 4, we'll see

This is better than AVFTTOTW for sure

I still prefer View, but this is damn good. I like how it provides a more accessible take on their sound without sacrificing what makes them good in the first place. Great mix of catchiness and complexity

Album Rating: 4.0

View doesn't give me anything tbh

This one is fun at the very least

I already forgot View existed

This cover art looks like an early 2000s Philip K Dick film adaptation made by a major studio

One of the most fun Dream Theater albums, I enjoy almost every track. Sad to see they had to follow it up with A Turd From The Top Of The World.

Listened to this for the first time and I gotta say wow it's pretty damn good. Will have to check out View next.

SZN is still my favorite track here. The solo on that one is absolutely wild

That's a weird way to spell At Wit's End, but I'll take it

Album Rating: 3.8

That one's great too, but I think the outro drags a bit too long

Album Rating: 3.5

At Wit’s End is my fav on here as well, but it feels like there’s something missing, the fading out just doesn’t fit somehow.



And View > this

Enjoying the new track with Portnoy back. Glad to hear the playfulness return

Listening to this has made me realize how bad Dream Theater hit the auto-pilot button after Octavarium.

Album Rating: 4.0

Yea, even though Black Clouds was pretty good bar Wither and Rite of Passage. I like how this album has the return of actual songwriting. Their last few albums are too much noodling imo
