Dream Theater in God of War III

[chrisbDTM]

i like it, reminds me of old video games, isnt petrucci into older style games?

[tri.ad]

Hm... It doesn't give away that much... The full version will definitely tell us more about the quality.

However, 7 weeks later, Jesus will release the official God of God re-edit, and it will tell us all we need to know.

Witty.

Thanks.

Sounds great from the sample, but I can't judge based on a short sample like that. I like the up tempo driving rhythm, and the keyboards remind me of LTE.

[Perpetual Change]

Even if it's not, it sounds like DT wrote and recorded the song in a way that could actually be in the game, so that's cool.

[Zydar]

Judging from the short clip it sounds great.

[OperantChamber]

It doesn't automatically blow me away. But then again, what DT song can be boiled down to a few seconds?

Regression?

I guess.


Since it's supposed to be at major digital retailers, anyone know of any that sell lossless audio?

[STEVETHEATER]

Love MP's double bass! Sounds very

[AwakeFromOctavarium]

Judging from this, I think the keyboard lick is kinda cheezy. It fits the theme, but listening to it feels kinda awkward.

[Nihil-Morari]

Hmm, I feel kinda meh. I hope that this is a heavy middle part, or at least just a short bit in the song.
Again it is the guitar riff doubled by the bass guitar, and doubled by the keys. Instead of a vocal line there is now a keyboard line that follows the top half of the guitar.
I'd love to hear some more polyfonics from them.

[Plasmastrike]

MP's double bass sounds fucking awesome.

I'm a pretty easy guy to please, so there is no doubt that I will be loving and rocking out to this song.

[MajorMatt]

Either one is possible, I'm just guessing it'll be a drop A.  (You heard it here first!) 

You are correct.

IT'S ON!! I'm calling Bb

You are wrong

It's Drop A on a 7.

For those of you that don't know Tabs and Bakerman do the official tab books for DT.

[Zook]

Judging from Akerfeldt's description and that sample, I think he missed the point of Blood & METAL.

As for Dream Theater, that sounded pretty cool.

yeah but its got a metal "mentality" 

I'm still very curious tho, the sample sounded more interesting to me than Raw Dog.

Accidental double post.

Dude, I love your avatar. I can't wait to hear the whole thing next Tuesday, Raw Dog sounds pretty good.

[TL]

The sample for Raw Dog sounds pretty good, and definitely seems like it works in its context.
Obviously we'll have to wait for the full song to see for sure, but I like what I'm hearing.

[ACID_FOX]

Loving the riff. The keyboard, not so much.


But hell, it's seven minuites long, I'm sure it won't dissapoint 

[inoku]

i always thought that it should be longer than 7 minutes..

[hefdaddy42]

i always thought that it should be longer than 7 minutes..

Why?

[inoku]

i always thought that it should be longer than 7 minutes..

Why?

just a feeling i guess.. and also after reading the review from the link before, i felt that it's a 9-10 minutes song..

[PlaysLikeMyung]

No, if it were 9-10 minutes long, I wouldn't be stoked for it. Stream of Consciousness is easily the worst instrumental they've done, simply because it's too long and drags

agree with you on SOC..
i just have a feeling. by reading the review it looks like raw dog has lot of variation.
thats why i hope for a long song. it doesnt have to be 12-15 minutes

This made me think, for some reason, of how funny it would be for LTE's 'Three Minute Warning' to be released on Rock Band or Guitar Hero, where you would have to improvise it differently every time you played the track.

Surely one of the funnier posts I've seen in a while. Expect some Colorado steaks in the mail in 4-6 weeks.

It sounds like it would fit the game very good from the little snippet they gave 

[reneranucci]

Opeth´s song sounds so weird. I couldn´t figure out what was going in that sample, in the other songs at least you can say "this is one of the main riffs", "this sounds like a solo part".

I like that too, but I confess I was a bit disapointed, I mean, the stuff I like the most about Opeth is their agressiveness and the growls and the cool guitar riffs. While I think the acoustic guitar parts in Watershed are very cool, they are just there to add some balance. For such an "important-unique" project I thought Opeth was gonna do something that represented them a little better...but oh well, we haven´t even heard the song yet, I will just wait for it and most likely it will be amazing.

[pogoowner]

I'm glad Opeth actually did something different. It'd be retarded if every single song on the soundtrack was balls-to-the-wall metal. Different moods will need to be set throughout the game.

The songs aren't going to be in the ACTUAL game i believe.

Hmm...  you're right, I guess it doesn't say they'll actually be incorporated in any way. Still, some variety on the EP is certainly welcome.

Why would I want to wait 4-6 weeks for Colorado steaks when I can enjoy some Raw Dog next week?  OHHH... and I'm still on topic!!!

I actually found it funny. Your reply sounds like you took it as an insult.
