Dream Theater > Dream Theater
*Official* The Astonishing discussion thread
bosk1:
Now that the album is becoming available in various time zones, we pretty much have a green light for discussion of legally obtained music/lyrics/album art/etc. Since the other thread was a it long-ish, it was requested that we have a new one, so here you go. Enjoy and discuss away, DTF. Do what you do!
***SPOILERS BELOW*** (obviously)
DarkLord_Lalinc:
YES!
First impression:
This is some of the most special, most melodic and beautiful music Dream Theater has even written.
Voices:
My favorite DT album. Completely astonished!
pcs90:
Easily some of their most varied and emotional music for me.
Thankfully, the snare doesn't bother me here. I was worried about this from the 2 singles but honestly those are the worst spots for the triggered sound. The snare does have some dynamics in the more dynamic songs.
cookienut:
It definitely takes more listens...more over any other album they've made.
That said, it's truly original and refreshing.
Musicality is absolutely fantastic.
There are some low points but the high points expand it into some fantastic territory that is some of the bands best.
I had no hope for this album so Im quite surprised. Infact it's excellent.
That jazz/blastbeat breakdown...I WANT MORE OF IT.
