If you don't like lyrics that just provide information about a subject, never listen to Iron Maiden
I don't.

You OK there, Hef?
Yup.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

On a different note, why do you suppose we haven't gotten another YouTube studio update yet? I got the impression that they would be doing them somewhat periodically.

I'd say we're still in that time frame.

Discussing the song was banned? WTF?

Anyway, I don't dislike it because of the message. I agree with the message. But the song just is not good, and neither are the lyrics. Also it's not really "controversial" in the slightest. By 2007 when SC came out, Bush and his wars were so unpopular especially with those in the media that agreeing with them would have been the way more controversial statement coming from a rock band.

Seems like plenty of people love it, though.

Now that is unexpected, controversial.

Yeah, I'm the same. I don't even know what the lyrics are about. I heard the song once or twice and knew I never needed to ever hear it again.

Well, yeah, I just wanted it to be, like, every few days or something.

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

Makes me want to hear some other electro-DT.

Speaking of which, does anyone else suspect there will be more electronic music influence on DT12? There was hints of it on ADTOE (BMUBMD, Outcry, BAI), so there's a good chance we'll get more on DT12.

You should see the animated orgy Blob made of all of us with the cast of Back To The Future.  Computer generated  Lea Thompson never walked the same after that night.

I don´t want to hear any "electro" sounds by Jordan in DT12.

I only want to hear pure and unadulterated prog.

That`s all (I`m really old school minded).

IMO what you want is the exact opposite of what prog is all about, which is chartering unfounded waters. That's just my opinion though, and I use prog with a lot of stuff others wouldn't deem as prog

The "electro" thing may work for other bands, buy definitely not for DT.

Best DT works were without that element.

I'm all for DT exploring new sounds, as long as they sound good, which I don't think electronic does. They can do whatever they want, but I think their music is better off without electro elements. It works for some bands, but I think it waters down DT's sound.

Was it discussion of the song altogether that was banned, or was it simly the discussion of the political aspects?  I know MP.com is very strict about keeping all political and religious discussion off the boards altogether, so it wouldn't surprise me.  That is basically why we have the separate P/R forum nowadays.  P/R discussion had been banned on the main part of the forum at DT.net, and rumborak and some others lobbied for a separate part of the forum where those ideas could be discussed freely without the rest of the forum devolving into political and/or religious debate, and Itchy eventually allowed it.  It has continued to this day, but even know, we keep those kinds of discussions off the main forum.

I guess it was the discussion of the lyrics and the topic that was banned.  You could say "man, that song rules" or talk about the music but that was basically it. 

Of course, this was a while ago so I dont remember exactly.

I don't know about that, but the Deluxe Edition of the album should include Electro-Remixes of all the songs. Haha.

The fact that I've become a pretty huge Dark Tranquillity fan over the last couple of months has really made me appreciate the metal + electronic stuff combination a lot more, so I really like these elements on ADTOE now. I think it's great that the band tries some new sounds, and although maybe not everyone likes it, exploring new stuff is, as Dark Castle said, what prog is all about.

Slow news day, huh? :lol

I can't wait till we get a tracklist, so we can start guessing which song is the instrumental, who wrote the lyrics to what, and which song will have the tambourine solo.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.
