Dream Theater self titled album discussion - [SPOILER FREE DISCUSSION ONLY]

[Elite]

at the "Only 70 minutes?" Comments

Oh, there is that as well, yes

[Scotto123]

People are really taking this "review" seriously? Cmon....

[Flacracker]

Also that second review from the non credible guy with 3 posts says it was his first listen.

[RMGadelha]

Haha, I didn't notice there were 2 different posters in that, lol.

[Kotowboy]

70 mins? Would that not make it like the 2nd shortest album after IAW?

i think Train Of Thought is 65 mins.


Edit : 69 minutes.

[RMGadelha]

For all we know, when he says 70, he could be averaging.

[Dark Castle]

Okay guys.... 70 minutes is a pretty good chunk of music..

[Kotowboy]

70 minutes is Train of thought length.

And only 5 minutes shorter than " Be Here Now "

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

You really crying about it *MAYBE* running for 70 minutes?

lol, this forum.

[Kotowboy]

That's an entire hour and ten minutes. . .

[Dark Castle]

You really crying about it *MAYBE* running for 70 minutes?

lol, this forum.

Seriously, this so much it's not even funny.

[FlyingBIZKIT]

People expect too much. Silly.

[OsMosis2259]

Only 70 mins?
Hopefully we'll get a little more to fill that disc   

[Flacracker]

Maybe Easter Egg is a hidden track

[JayOctavarium]

Maybe Easter Egg is a hidden track

That's what I was gonna saaaaay

[johncal]

at 70 mins. he probably didn't find the Easter Egg

[johncal]

Here in Spain, there is a famous musical journalist called "Tío Emilio" who likes to discuss music with fans in a forum, and he just received... Well...:

We would actually pay attention to anything that a guy that looks like that says?

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Excellent point.

[johncal]

I really don't give a fuck what that guy thinks of it, or what anyone thinks of it, to be honest. I care what I think of it.

I agree. Half the guys on this forum hate ADTOE and I think it's their best work ever. So do I care what anybody else thinks? Not a lot.

[johncal]

Excellent point.

Especially since his favorite song sounds like another group. That could make it my least favorite. My favorite is when DT sounds like DT.... because I love DT!

[matte.braso]

it's about 20 mins that I'm trying to have access to the DT official site....are they posting something new?

[Implode]

I'm not connecting either.

Really? It's actually one of the best received post-SDOIT Dream Theater albums around these parts.

[King Postwhore]

Never trust a guy with a cheesy porn stache.

Esto sí que me ha sorprendido bastante (poca duración, mal sonido de batería, ningún cambio de dirección brusco con relación a ADTOE, Rudess "nulo", etc).

[RMGadelha]

I always get that funny feeling when a band website is not working... But that usually leads to disappointment =P

[countoftuscany42]

That's not his face, that's that guy Gunther or whatever his name is who does weird music about sex. Don't ask why I know that 

[King Postwhore]

That's not his face, that's that guy Gunther or hate we his name is who does weird music about sex. Don't ask why I know that 

*Slowly backs away from thread*

[Lucien]

Now that I think about it, that guy's "review" could EASILY be a total hoax. Take it with a grain of salt, guys. Besides, does Dream Theater give promotionals to non English-speaking countries?

"First impressions: different to A Dramatic Turn of Events. Heavier and also more melodic. Some lovely obtuse time changes and very proggy in places. The epic Illumination Theory will thrill DT fans. It won't change opinions of the band's detractors within the prog community, and these are still early days, but it sounds like a strong addition to the band's body of work."
