That's already been proven false.

Just listened again, and yes - FALSE. The sound effects at the end of TCOT are (or meant to sound like) nature sounds, like a marsh or lake or bog or swamp, with birds and frogs all around, water waves splashing on a shore, etc. etc.

Then I played the Keyboard Stem for OTBOA (so GLAD I got those), and it's definitely MorphWiz sound effects, not nature-y at all. It sounds like synth sounds with weird unintelligible vocals as weird samples, with some interesting looping effects thrown in.

Are we closer than before?

Closer to a release date, yes.

Not if the release date is pushed one day forward every day. :3

Well it doesn't make sense to me why they would use something that sounds similar instead of just using the actual thing.

Whichever one you are referring to, it's because the band uses samples ALL the time. I'm pretty sure each album has a song with samples of SOMETHING in it, whether it's vocals, sound effects, noises, or other things that cannot be created in the studio with instruments. I mean, the scream in "Finally Free" that Victoria does is a well-known scream sample. Makes sense to me - sometimes they go with whatever sounds right to them, and who am I/are we to argue what they think sounds right at the time for their music?

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

This generated a thought in my head. The beginning of ANTR always reminded me of the song Black Sabbath, and ironically TGP also has the bells.

Today I rewatched the TSCO-Docu after almost a year and he was so sweet there, when speaking of his wish to get into the band, not just as a gig, but as a stable home. He is a magnificent human being.

When I was still re-evaluating how I felt about Mangini in the band, I came to the conclusion he is a beast of a drummer, but I knew DT wouldn't select anyone inept anyway - I needed some proof that he'd be just as committed and bound to the band as MP was before he left. And then I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DpsTNDufUg and my confidence solidified. You just know he means it, when he says it.

Yes, that video definitely speaks the ultimate truth about him. I'm so glad he's in the band :)

Yes, Yes, Yes.  Every day I know how much Mangini is soooo perfect for DT.  I really think that DT is about heart and feel and MM just embodies this so much.  I CANNOT wait for the next album!

I've actually never liked the silver.  I didn't mind it 10 years ago for any 7-string song but it just doesn't do anything for me.  The ones I *really* like are the BFR with the quilted wood, not the flame, but JP rarely plays those.  My dream guitar that I hope to own one day is the quilted red BFR.
