I don't care that much about album cover and tracklist: the first because the booklet art that I love the most is in FII, that has the worst cover IMO. The second because many of the songs by DT that I like the most have names that are just simple and plain, such as Surrounded, Learning to Live, 6:00, Voices, Blind Faith, and so on.

DT12, that's how.

The second because many of the songs by DT that I like the most have names that are just simple and plain, such as Surrounded, Learning to Live, 6:00, Voices, Blind Faith, and so on.

Does this mean the band is using simple art to make us doubt how great the album is, then suddenly DAMN AMAZING SONGS?

DT12 would work, but DTA (Dream Theater Album) could as well, and PA or DTP if it is indeed purple. :P

Last word's "mellow," but I don't think it's of much use even for speculation purposes. "Weird" three above it.

There's a song chart later in the video, paused it... and the songs are just called "Song 1," "Song 2," "Song 3!" They're on to us!

The thing that bums me out most about it being self titled, is that it probably means it won't be a concept album.

I feel we need a track listing/album cover right now since the reveal of the title was anticlimactic!

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. It could be about a dream-granting genie that lives in a dilapidated theater, for all we know.

No, I'm fairly confident it's not. Wrong shape, and they'd be making a hubbub - "We can EXCLUSIVELY reveal this BITCHING cover art what HUGH SYME gone and done!"

I certainly hope they don't take anything that's said on this forum into consideration.  It would completely destroy the music and the bands image.  :lol

If anything, at most any of the band members will take away from the forums is the fact that some people are complaining and there is no pleasing everyone. But based on what JP has said in the past, I don't think this affects him in the slightest. The album sales, ticket sales and energy from the crowds at those concerts probably speak worlds more to him than a hand full of commenters that complain on this forum.

personally, hearing news about the release day and self titled album name has simply made me incredibly excited in wanting to hear the new album. I'll reserve every bit of judgement after I give it a spin.

Yeah but their album was called Purple and the DT album would be called The Purple Album

I think we need a really meaningless thread with voting and polls to decide what to abbreviate it as.

All seem pretty appropriate!
