I want them to create an album that they enjoyed making and feel that their audience can feed off of their enjoyment of making the album and if they feel they can get that done in one month or six months or more, so be it.
I also felt that, despite the mixed reactions of The Astonishing, I loved the way they want to be ambitious going about creating the album which I personally felt like it's the best form of artistic expression. So I want them to retain that sort of ambition that they had when they created The Astonishing with DT14, but not be The Astonishing Part II (Electric Booglaloo) since that would just be a redo of a recent previous idea and that's going against being progressive in my books.
I don't know what, but I want them to make something they can get excited about and I don't know if I feel like them being inspired by the recent Images and Words tour and ADTOE album can get them that artistic satisfaction. However, if they want to resalvage the fanbase that was turned off by TA and do better in the album sales, so be it. If that's the reason they want to go about the direction of the next album, I just want them to admit it and be honest about it.
