I would just like them to at least once mention the "I&W-referense" if you will, in at least one interview. Just to have them comment on it would be interesting.

Still nice interview though. Liked the JLB behind the scene question.

JP commented on it in an interview.  (can't remember which one)  If I recall correctly, his comment was along the lines of, the band intentionally wanted to write an album that sounded like "classic Dream Theater," but did not intentionally duplicate structures from I&W, and that it was entertaining to read all the theories on the Internet about that.

Brutalitopia.. all right.
Good interview anyway, always good to hear from the master.

Weird. I have been looking into it a bit more and the reseblance in structure is just so strong I was sure that it was conscious..

A nice interview, I liked Jordan's take on the urban legend.
