Sorry - it's like I'm still in 'treasure hunt' mode. :P

Your post brings some cool ideas, anyway.

When I did my count, I just counted all the songs from the 13 studio albums to date, so A Change of Seasons, or any of the other non-album tracks, are not counted. Six Degrees and In the Presence of Enemies counted as one song each, and all 34 songs from The Astonishing (including the NOMAC tracks) counted, thus arriving at 136. This will make track 1 of Distance Over Time song 137.

New World Rushman

I live off of exit 137 on the Garden State Parkway.
I'm sure it has something to do with it.

Maybe every song is going to be at 137bpm

'Beatrice' from Discord has noted that, just as 137 is the 33rd prime number, the band is currently ending their 33rd year of activity. (As in: next May will be the 33rd anniversary of the band's first show.)

So do we go ahead and move this thread to the Octavarium subforum now, or wait a while?

I have counted both ITPOE and SDOIT as individual songs,

Quote from: RoeDent on November 06, 2018, 05:56:10 AM
In the Presence of Enemies counted as one song

:lol ::)


ACoS it is a studio album song, because is the only original song to be included in a EP and nowhere else..

So 137 it is..

Inb4: "no this again lol"

Not named here yet, "137" is the name of a Pineapple Thief album.

That is probably why it is on the skull...

AboutToCrash

If you add all their 20+ minute epics together the length comes to almost exactly 137 minutes.. no relevance really, just thought that was a cool coincidence!

I'm guessing that AboutToCrash is including ItPoE as a single song:

SDoIT  42:02
ItPoE   25:38
8V       24:00
ACoS   23:09
IT        22:17*
TOTAL  137:06

* - If you only consider the song proper and not the little instrumental ditty at the end, it's less than 20 minutes.

Episode 137 of Dragon Ball Z, part of the Androids Saga, has a character "furiously vow to destroy the androids for humiliating and defeating him".

I'd say if an android was holding a human skull, that would be pretty humiliating!

The album will revolve around the "Game of Tones" episode of Futurama, which was number 137 of the series.

Maybe D/T is a double album which in total lasts 137 minutes..

It's the amount of years that will pass untill JP finally decides record his 2nd solo album...

TAC

Maybe it's how many copies of the album worldwide that they expect to be bought by women.
Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: Stadler on February 08, 2025, 12:49:43 PMI wouldn't argue this.

No it isn't.  It is one song.

But 137 does not refer to the number of DT songs anyway.

Are you implying that you know exactly what 137 means, or that no logical cherrypicking of DT songs will result in 137?

bosk1

I'm saying I know exactly what "137" refers to, and it isn't the number of songs in DT's catalog.  At least, it isn't intended to refer to that.

It's the number of squats JP does every hour.

It's one hell of a weird coincidence then although I suppose you do have to kind of force SDOIT and ITPOE into single songs to get it to add to 137 but leave A Mind Beside Itself as individual songs so maybe not that much of a coincidence.
