Judging from previous patterns on my end, it will not be one of my favorites.  Basically, every time their drummer quits, the first album they release is mindblowingly good and easily my favorite. 

I would rather they keep their current drummer and just release a very good album.

Que?

I'm not sure a pattern can be drawn from a sample size of 1.

For every album, there is an equal and opposite remaster.  Assuming Portnoy creates a vacuum.

This thread is awesome.  I'm extremely mistified at why the OP decided to do some crazy analysis, when he could have just said "since there has been no weak back to back albums, if this stays true, the next one MUST be good".  Why even separate them by 3's at all?

I actually think they're on a 11-album cycle. So, DT12 was WDADU, and DT13 will be IAW. Which however also means JR leaves after DT14.

Doesn't that mean James is about to leave any minute?
Yeah, I have no idea what the cakeless person in that analogy is meant to be eating. If he's got some sort of cake substitute, it should really have been worked into the narrative at some point. As it stands, the options are:

  • Hoard a cake just to stare blankly into its doughy edifice.
  • Make futile chewing motions with your mouth while starving to death.

Thats actually part of the pattern is that it has to be from a sample size of 1.  Crazy I know.

If there's any logic or pattern whatsoever in DT's discography then their next album will definitely be their 13th.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.
