Dream Theater "the astonishing" - Jerome - 03-02-2016
Ruby Wrote:For some reason that I canât quite fathom, DTâs music does not appeal to me. Itâs too big, I think â they chuck everything single thing they have at you and the fact that they are highly proficient in doing so is not what is in question. At the end of the day, it always just comes down to personal taste I guess. I would like to like them, and keep on trying to, but find all the showiness exhausting and it doesnât seem to make a lasting impression. Too rich a feast for me â overwhelming. That said, I have only listened to those two clips â not the entire album and they clearly have a huge and loyal following so maybe Iâm missing something?!
Will give the whole thing a listen when I have time. Who knows â may change my mind! Itâs a Venutian prerogative.
Could not agree more. !00% on the money. No question that they are brilliant musicians. That goes without saying. But their stuff is too OTT for me. Not enough spaces between the sounds. I have one of their DVD's and only watched it once. I have one of their albums somewhere but I never play it. Each to their own I guess.

you like what you like
the older you get the harder it is to accept
this was the equivalent of 3 albums
I can't even do 3 Dylan albums in a row
Dream Theater "the astonishing" - Mr.Smolski - 17-02-2016
when i was watching official music video from new album, I was astonished a bit, cause Petrucci had long hair
But then i found album in FLACIT, at first i listened it for free, and then as I love progressive rock bought it in flac.
It was the first time when I decided to buy music (in Russia we just download it, nothing more), so this album cost buying anyway!
