[EpicCookie]

If those riffs are in the album it must be one hell of an album 

[MajorMatt]

I also love the riff at the start of this video they play with Mangini, its groovin'

Delicious, I love both sections.

[Tomislav95]

Nice

With a scepter and a... cmon cut it out

Any other side projects I should know about? I was just thinking that what if there is a Myung solo album Im not aware of or something ... Bassnotes on a dream? It could show you how the bass notes of some DT songs would sound if you could actually hear them..

You have Explorers Club featuring JP and JLB. That one doesn't show up in there either.

I was just listening to Solitary Shell and thought it would be really nice if JP played some acoustic guitar in one of the songs from the new album.

or an all acoustic song... piano... acousitic guitar... fretless bass... oh yeeaaa

Speaking about the music in the new album...
When they released the drummer audition, people were saying, ''this could be potential riffs from the new album'', and I was thinking ''Oh, c'mon... they haven't even entered the studio (at the time of the recording)''
But, I don't know, this little riff caught my attention:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vaDfcKzLbY
Got to minutes 08:30

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=677UAyq4Jig&feature=related
Go to minute 2:10

The first video is from the auditions (Recorded last year), and the second one is from Tcelectronics... early january...

Maybe... 

JP obviously likes the riff if he's played it on two seperate videos. I can't see why he wouldn't want to put it on the album if he thinks its good.

[tri.ad]

[jonny108]

[ariich]

Love the tough guy poses.

Don't they look unified?

Might be purely me projecting onto it, but it's looks more "even" than usual. James LaBrie at the front, John Petrucci watching on from the sidelines...

[FretMuppet]

Wooooooah look at that tricep

[EpicCookie]

Wooooooah look at that tricep

I agree, They do look unified

I love that sneaky smirk that lurks in JLBs face too he seems... content.

In other opinions, seems as though they're revamping the BC&SL theme for this album (dark, black, grey)... since I assume these are promo pictures? Maybe an "undo, do-over" approach?

[EpicCookie]

haha badasses 

[wolfking]

That's simply a really great picture!!

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

lol they're like a gang that's not to be messed with.

It feels like there is more "color" in these ones than the BC&SL pics. It just feels more fresh. Well, that may be because they are pretty fresh but I don't know how to describe it.. they feel more orange.

[Apricot]

I can't be the only one to think that James has changed a lot in appaearance in the past few years. I don't mean just his hair, but his eyes look completely different. i can't see any resemblance to his 'old eyes'.

[Jamesman42]

they feel more orange.

IMHO, these have nothing to do with the BC&SL promo pics... I feel like they're giving a fresh image to the guys, not explaining what direction the new album has taken.

they feel more orange.

There is waaaay  more color in this one.

When life gives you darklords, you make voodoo dolls

[antigoon]

one of the most normal band pics they've had in a while.

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

I'm glad they didn't go the BCSL path again. This is great.

[hefdaddy42]

they feel more orange.

When life gives you oranges, you make orange frogs

When life gives you Jamesmen, you rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Finally normal band photo. On BC&SL they looked like some death/gothic/black metal band. Hopefully that won't happen again.
