New Album Title (A Dramatic Turn of Events) and Track Listing Revealed

[chrisbDTM]

I assumed it was a wing because I assumed the plane was turning, thus having one wing above the clouds.  But now that you mention it, maybe it does look more like a tail than a wing in general shape.  I'm not sure. 

i just think that if you look at the angle between the tail and top of plane (the bend), if it were a wing the nose of the plane would be over the clouds as well.

It's a sailboat in a sea of mashed potatoes.

Is Mike the clown (head in the clouds?) on the tight rope?! While the DT flying machine flies on?

Interesting, but funny

THE METAPHOR

Not just the metaphor, but the rooooooope

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

Jesus, did he ever see the red light?

[Ben_Jamin]

Its actually a pretty sad cover. The rope snapped and he doesn't know it, while a plane is about to pass through the break, and witness but it won't

[emindead]

Really, what's the word... mediocre? album cover. I mean, when the reaction to the music is AWESOME!!! and the cover gets plenty of "LOL!!!" you gotta say it. As of now: Music = Good; Artwork = Bad.

Oh well, as long as the rest of the music is good, it's all OK.

[Super Dude]

Maybe it's a plane to imply that from now on it'll be just smooth sailing?

[Rafael Guerra]

Hm...so the clown will fall on the back of the plane and take off higher than ever?

[Knguro]

Wait wait wait till you hear the rest of the DT album... oh my... but please enjoy On the Backs of Angels as it was my 1st recorded song and I can't wait until you hear it in person! There aren't enough hours in the day for me before leaving for Rome. I'm learning a HUGE DT epic (last min. add) to throw in this tour ahhhhh!!!

From Mike Mangini!!
Huge DT epic.... ACOS?!?!?!

ACOS. its gotta beeee

i dunno thats kinda Portnoys personal song it might bother a few fans. Im guessing Octavarium, its a better song anyways

Ohhhh why would you bring this person back to the table he is not longer in the band! Come on let's keep talking about MM! ;-) he is such a character! His positive personality will Keep him as a DT member for ever!

[fadetoblackdude7]

I actually quite like it. I mean, it's not amazing, but (1) it's not busy, and is pretty simple, and (2) the colour scheme is very bright. These things make me happy.

THIS!

Finally an opinion that isn't ripping it to pieces lol

[ariich]

Well I am DTF's resident optimist, so it's to be expected!

Although some of your phrases make me go WTF, this.

This is true.....I love the cover, and I see nothing wrong with it at all.

He's anyway bound to die due to the lack of oxygen at that altitude, so the snapped rope may actually come as a relief.

I guess you're my official foil then. 

[ariich]

Indeed. People like to question you on whether there's anything you actually like, and a few times I've been asked whether there's anything I dislike.

This makes you my nemesis.

[Jaffa]

I can testify to this.

Yeah, but you're not the first to ask that of me.

You quite dislike Scenes From a Memory! That's more than enough, I suppose 

[Matt7]

I usually don't judge an album for its title.

I think the title is really meaningful.
And I'm really glad that there isn't a title track or something like that.

9 songs for me are quite enough and the titles are really inspiring

Well, I don't dislike it at all, in fact I enjoy it greatly. I just don't find it hugely exciting, and definitely one of DT's weaker albums.

Well, I hope you dislike at least Constant Motion or Friday 

[ariich]

Fixed the quoting for you.

And Constant Motion is a good song, definitely not one of DT's worst as some people seem to claim.

Dude, that song is awful.  If it weren't for the instrumental section, it would have no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

[ariich]

The riff rocks, and I enjoy the back and forth in it.

And yeah the instrumental/solo section is really groovy and takes it from maybe a 5/10 up to a 7/10.

Well hey, if you like it, that's all that matters.

[Ben_Jamin]

JP's solo is reminiscient of These Walls in its simplicity and its great.

Huge DT epic.... ACOS?!?!?!

What does he mean by 'epic'?
I mean, they called A Nightmare to Remember and The Dance Of Eternity 'epics' in the drummer auditions... so 
But I hope it is A Change of Seasons too 

[chrisbDTM]

im sure hes been schooled by the band as to what a DT 'epic' really is

[BlackwaterPerk]

I guess...
