Pretty sure that the Enemy Inside isn't 20 min. long.

He was referring to the fact that I said I hope it sounds like ITPOE... I said sounds like, not structured like. Plus I could very well mean ITPOE 1 which is only 8 minutes.

Try explaining that to a non-prog/metal fan. also, ITPOE is 9 minutes long, but whatever..

Now watch... around 11am EST the website will be overloaded and their servers will explode.  :omg:

Now you see why it's not on DT.net or RR.com :)

I´m a huge Rush fan, and I´m surprised nobody here has mentioned the fact that they have a song called The Enemy Within. While it´s kinda pointless to speculate without listening to a single note, I can´t help but wonder if there will be  a reference to Rush on the song. Looking forward to this...I don´t think I ever longed for a Monday  :laugh: :laugh:

It's been mentioned, somewhere within the abyss of the general DT12 discussion thread. :lol It's a pretty generic phrase though, so I wouldn't think much of it.





And Star Trek had an episode called The Enemy Within first, so obviously it's a Trek reference. :biggrin:

Frankly a title/concept like "The Enemy Inside/Within" isn't that uncommon in music or literature. All the opposite, I believe! So there may not be any direct reference to their canadian progressive ancestors :D

Yeah. If the song is a ska/reggae-song we can start the bashing  ;D

So it should be safe to assume the song is about unicorn dogs with antennae!  :metal

Why?
No shit, that would be awesome.

You bet! Call that progressive, ska and reggae in a DT song!

The title is making me hope it's some Glass Prison/Panic Attack awesomeness.

OMG I didn't realize... Monday is 8/5. NUGGETZ PLZ

5/8 in the UK, where we use dates properly.

Wow, I didn't even notice that! So the tempo of the song is 85, it's 5:58 long, it has five eight-row verses and it contains 5 band members!  :hat

I was just kidding (i was just reffering to the Rush-song)
To tap into something completely different like that would indeed be cool!

Monday is a national holiday in Croatia which is great.... I remember being at my workplace when the new Black Sabbath album became available. The curiosity paired with absence of speakers on the PC almost killed me  ::) :lol
So, nothing's gonna get between me and the smarturl link  :metal

Try explaining that to a non-prog/metal fan. also, ITPOE is 9 minutes long, but whatever..

8:59. No need to be drawing lines in the sand.

On the back of my CD it clearly says '9:00'. So that's exactly 9 minutes, mister. *insert DT song title joke*

A bird whispering (or spitting, or drilling) in some DT-Tatooed guy's head? Seems legit  :lol

I wonder if the hummingbird's long ass tongue will be inside the dude's ear.

atmyne

That's actually pretty badass! Definitely getting an Octavarium/Systematic chaos vibe from the artwork!

That would be an unwarranted concession to horror/trash artworking.  :laugh:

So, a humming bird is hovering by a big bald guy with no shirt on, who has the majesty logo tattooed on the back of his head.

Perhaps the bald guy is in prison (perpetuating the idea that the enemy inside is about personal demons) and the humming bird represents his coming to grips with the enemy within, allowing for his freedom....
