I'm concerned by the apparent short lenght of the songs too

"hey you guys can choose not to listen to it"

Believe me I ain't bothering.

The new song is actually pretty decent.

New song is like 6 Degrees/Metropolis II good, imo.



"Heightening the drama, Dream Theater bolstered its sound on The Astonishing with a full orchestra, multiple choirs and a clutch of unorthodox instruments. Enlisted to muster those forces was David Campbell, a veteran conductor and orchestrator whose extensive credits include work for film, Broadway, and more than 450 gold and platinum albums by the likes of Paul McCartney, Rush, My Chemical Romance and Campbell's son, Beck. "

new song is pretty decent [2] I noticed major Rush vibes, especially having binged many of their albums recently.

They Always Rip rush off.

New song is one of their best in a while, shows promise for the rest of the album

Album Rating: 3.0

I don't know, the riff and choruses are decent and kind of catchy, but the chorus is tasteless and the instrumentation is overall reheated musical workout.

Album Rating: 2.5

The lyrics are shit, but there's a always a chance that they will work within the framework of the album's concept.

New song sucks and sounds like a shitty Rush ripoff



They really, really need to retire

Album Rating: 2.5

I mean maybe in its lyrics, but Dream Theater take inspiration from a lot of bands overall, not just Rush.

Album Rating: 3.5

Atleast they're really doing something new with this big ass concept, working with David Campbell and having a choir and orchestra. I'm pretty excited even though I don't like the new song that much

"there's kind of a juxtaposition throughout the album of this sort of noise music, this music made by the Noise Machines, this artificial intelligence, and how that compares to the music that Dream Theater is playing as our musical score, which has real piano, real organ, real orchestra, real choir, real instruments."



Wait wait, real organ, choir, piano? It's about damn time. Enough of the synthesised shit

Album Rating: 3.5

Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence really needed a live orchestra and stuff
