Do you think it's related to the liquid tension somewhat reunion ? Like there will not be a LTE4 but this album features guests and at least one song with LTE members ?
I don't think Labrie is in, since he was interviewed about how long he hasn't spoke to portnoy

Or maybe it's a G3 oriented album.
