Will The Astonishing be DT's swansong?

Don't forget that besides being an artistic effort, their music is also, like, how they make a living.  Not trying to be cynical or saying they'd phone it in just for the bucks -- and in fact I think TA is the kind of thing you'd only make if your heart was really in it! -- but just to say, walking away wouldn't only be an artistic decision.  They have families and other concerns as well.

I don't think we'll see an album of this grandiosity for a while. I'd be up for a simpler balls-out metal album in the vain of TOT next!
