In other news, https://dreamtheater.net/news_dreamtheater.php#pressrelease.  dreamtheater.net finally has something new, but as far as I can tell, it's exactly the same article as was posted from a spanish website in the 'a rumor' thread yesterday.

You will generally NOT find information on .net as quickly as you will find it elsewhere.  That's not a knock on the band, but their webmaster simply doesn't get the info out as promptly as you would expect.  That's why I appreciate fans posting stuff here as soon as it is released so that we can make sure the information is out to as many people as quickly as possible.

Oh, I understand that.  :)  I'm just wondering if this is the thing we're supposed to be keeping our eyes on DT.net this morning for. 
Sincerely,
Jaffa

I'm willing to bet the album artwork will be out by the end of the week.

Considering there's more info coming out tomorrow, I think there's a 50/50 chance it's the artwork.

I'm sure the cover art will have a Rhinoceros in it.

I'm thinking along these lines. It looks like it could be an image from a sky point of view looking down or across something. I'm expecting birds and maybe an ocean, forest, etc.

I think the new info is the release date considering the tracklisting was released on the seventh and the the release date was today

You definitely don't want to be standing under the tree that thing's perched in.

You know how bad it is when I am first hearing about this like 24 hours after it was announced.

Bad meaning I need to post here more.  Tomorrow is my last day of school and I should be on here more often.
I don’t know what to put here anymore

That makes you the one who posts too much :lol
Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.

I think the new album is going to be 4:57-5:08 of Lie, on repeat for 80 minutes.  And the artwork will be Louie Anderson on a Jackhammer with oldschool headphones on.

I'm thinking the album cover will have trees, possibly a forest.  And maybe it's a concept album about the life and realization of sasquatch.

Sorry if someone's already brought this up, I only read half of the 13 pages.

But Mangini said that it was track 6 with the ridiculous drumming, no? That'd be Outcry.

 :metal

The order they recorded them in has NOTHING to do with the way they are finally sequenced on the album.

Hi everyone. First post. I'm a total DT noob.

I'm wondering...do you think "This is the life" is a Living Colour cover? It's a great song, and I could see DT doing something really beautiful with it. If you want to hear it, "This is the life" is on the "Time's Up" CD. Or, you can listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6okNaPSRdlI
