habit79: Newest Dream Theater LP
The Astonishing</span> jkiiskinen: And how do you like it, if you don't mind me asking? I listened to some of the tracks on their youtube channel, and to me they sounded terribly bland and uninteresting, a far cry from the glory days of IAW and Awake. And then there's this...
Dream Theater – The Astonishing (Official Trailer) ...eeesh! *shudder*
I know, I know.
We'll never have them back as they were on Images and Awake.
But still, some of their songs and albums are still worthy (Scenes From a Memory: Metropolis 2, Octavarium, Black Clouds And Silver Linings).
This last LP, been a concept and a very long album (34 tracks for over 130 minutes) deserves some time.
And many, many listenings.
I'm listenin' to it on Spotify and I gotta say: it gets better each day.
That said. I know they'll never be back to their "Golden Era" but still I found them enjoyable.
