You waited for this so long, you screamed for it. Now it's here. The STOD cover.
« on: January 06, 2011, 02:43:09 PM »
Hi guys,
 
This file has been stored on my computer for many many months now... but finally Michal Mierzejewski (composer/conductor of the Symphonic Theater Of Dreams project) gave me green light to share it with you guys...  :metal
 
There have been many adjustments on the cover but I think it's cool now.
Yes, a lot of reference to the ''Awake'' and ''ACOS'' cover... but that's what this project is all about... A tribute to Dream Theater.
 
Tell me what you guys think.
If you didn't know 'bout this project checkout our facebook account.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Symphonic-Theater-of-Dreams/140261932677480
The official website is almost finished, will be released soon.
 
Thanks,
Steve (and the STOD team)

Layout isn't bad, though the ant holding the binoculars and the crow on the mirror look kinda off. I think it's the lighting.

Whoa... Epic. Too bad the Medley on Disc 2 doesn't include any song from FII, SDOIT or SC, but I guess that's okay since it has "Hell's Kitchen", TMOLS and "Losing Time" on the first disc. Ya know, for some reason I thought this was the Jordan Rudess Concert release, but I guess I got confused because I saw him tagged to the picture on Facebook and thought it was about him. Damn you Facebook and tagging!!!

Anyways, I remember what this project is, now! And the tracklist looks AMAZING. Can't wait to get this set! I love symphonic covers of songs I love! I still need to get the recently released "The Genesis Suite".

Man... I feel like an idiot now for mixing that up.  :facepalm:

Awesome artwork, Steve.  And the music sounds killer.  Does anyone know if this project is still accepting donations?  I saw on the blog that if you donate you get your name in the booklet.  I like that.  It's a good idea.

Well, I've never been a big fan of DT's cluttered covers, so I can't say I'm too excited about this cover. Good visual effort though.
