It'll be interesting what the new album brings. The last album had some bold parts.

I'd quite like some Italics or superscript on the new album.

I thought most of it was Comic Sans.

As the #1 hater of Comic Sans, I find that a very harsh statement. I'd say ADTOE is Times New Roman.

I imagine they'd go and do something a bit more experimental, like SDOIT was. At least, I hope they'll do that.

I"m actually expecting them to play it very safe again, although I hope you're right! I don't feel like ADTOE brings anything new to the table that I can't get from previous albums, and better, so I never feel compelled to listen to it.
I feel like ADTOE was DT at 80% capacity, not necessarily because it was lacking MP, but because I don't feel like they'd really gained from the addition of their new drummer yet. The next album should change that with the inclusion of MM from day 1, so hopefully this one will surprise me.

Nah dude, A Dramatic Turn of Events definitely Arial. Arial that has been italicized and underlined. Small caps. Highlighted in blue. 25 point font. Double-spaced. Probably with some WordArt thrown in for good measure.

DAMNIT, there are none of the Copperplate Gothic fonts on the forum, so I can't make the joke I wanted to.

I guess I'll just have to use MEDIEVAL SEIGE EQUIPTMENT.

Looks like DT are heading into the studio next week:

Quote from: Mike Mangini

Happy New Year !! The sight of freshly packed suitcases bound for Dream Theater Recording Land and the smell of new equipment will hit New York like an icy New England breeze fill with pure drum violence and fresh ideas. Eric and I, along with our sound engineer, will be working very, very hard the next few days to have the kit precisely reflecting all of our major changes, as well as having it pristine looking and ultra crisp sounding for when the rest of the band arrives next week. Yeah !!

MoraWintersoul · « **Reply #325 on:** January 03, 2013, 01:43:15 PM »

Whenever I see a new status by any of them I immediately search for DTFers in the comments... I rarely get disappointed

So they are changing the kit?

... if I were a member of Dream Theater, I'd rely on threads like these to provide my morning coffee chuckles

Here we are, a bunch of grown-ass people, getting excited over nothing.

But, is it nothing? It's like on a road trip, the driver telling you "we hit the road in 10 minutes" and all your friends are coming on board

It was partially a joke, but the last couple of DT titles have been a mouthful. It'd also be nice to not have to use such big acronyms like BC&SL, ADTOE, or SDOIT when discussing the new album when it comes out. Of course, I'm not going to wine if they use a longer title again, I just want great music.

Someday I'd love a self titled. Or call it 12.

This is probably out of their hands and I am grateful that CDs come with them, but man, can they switch up the booklets. The past three albums have all been the same style.

Whatever forever

Agreed. And as much as Hugh Syme is a legend, I would like it if they used someone different for the cover.

They need to make another title like Octavarium....something original and mysterious, I love that shit!
