| 3.5 great | bahlof | November 1st 13 |
This is definitively very similar to previous albums and I agree with some of the comments in that there isn't really any outstanding singers, actually my favorite one on the album is the less known singer Sara Squadrani. However as with every other Ayreon album you can't make a determination on the first listen. After a few listens it really starts to catch on cause there's a ton of music to take in on this album. If you're not a fan of the singers or the lyrics there's a version available that includes cd's with only instrumentals which is great.

haha, this is so bad that it is actually funny, lyrics seem to be from a 12 year old, the singers can not sing and the music is soooo laughable.

Pompous concept, ridiculous bombast, prog celebrities and a complete disregard for subtlety.
What can go wrong?

Europrog opera with dual male and female vocals: it is very pretty but also very cheesy! Also it's very long, and the constant "dialogue" - they sound like on a Broadway stage, not in the studio - really does not make this record a subtle one.

With The Theory of Everything, Lucassen has further cemented himself as a force to be reckoned with in the progressive metal and rock scene, but has also given us what may be his most accomplished work yet.

There is nothing new under the sun. Ayreon albums are real good, but the last works sounds very similar. The story is cool but is very boring for an a usual listener of his music. I think the flaw of this record is the choice of singers. No nobody stands out, all are very flat, inclusive chessy some times. Maybe JB tone is particular, but Arjen does not take advantage of his talent. In resume this is for hardcore fans.
