I like how it says "Dream Theater" on the speaker of the TV, and of course those books are interesting as well. "Behind The Veil" with "Darwin" as the author, and a "Goldmine" book on top of it. Hmm... gets me even more excited about this album.

Has any one heard if any import versions of the album have extra tracks?

If anything, I wouldn't say he's missing some marbles. I'd say he has too many. :D

So it appears to be after midnight since the test pattern is on TV. But it's still unplugged...

But it's light outside.... ???

Snow in street lights perhaps? Or early morning? The plot thickens.

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Darwin was irrelevant, and just happened to be on the spine of the book they added "Behind the Veil" to. It's embedded into the picture a little better - Behind the Veil looks like it's been popped on top. Cool if it's relevant, though.

Goldmine - I wonder if that's the name of the hidden track?

Goldmine is from a lyric from Through the Looking Glass, as discovered by DTF investigators previously [citation needed].

I'm so glad the people of this thread taught me the difference between digipacks and digibooks!! :D I hate digipacks, but a digibook is probably acceptable enough.

And also thanks for reminding me to do a full album run-through!!! I did that before....ADTOE, I think. Love doing that. I'll do one album per day starting 11 days before DT12, and just loop that album all day. :D

I don't want DT to become one of those bands who have continually bad artwork out of some favour to Syme.

Therapy? use the same artist for every album even though some of his work is diabolical.

Can't say I really like that. It looks like the books aren't even resting on the ground, and the tv's angle paired with the rooms odd feel don't really match up...
