I honestly don't understand how you could rate James LaBrie an 8 in originality.
To me, the album was about a 6.5/7 out of 10. |

As I already said, I think this is an awesome album. Maybe he's not talking about originality in general therms, but bearing in mind what Labrie's done before. This is not what you expect from the frontman of Dream Theater, is it?
I think it's a great album, made by great musicians. |

I listened to this album today for the first time. I was anticipating it and it didn't disappoint me at all.
I think it's very good and something I wasn't expecting to hear from Labrie, maybe because I didn't explore his solo career so much so far.
It's definitely an album I will come back to with pleasure. Some great riffs in here, the work by the musicians is amazing,
even though you can hear their influences from time to time, but in which album don't we? |

| Thanks for the review and bringing this album to my attention. Never appreciated Dream Theatre much, hence I did not even bother to check this out, but it is surprisingly enjoyable, direct, heavy and fast paced. Would recommend it to fans of melodic metal. |

Meh. I've always loved Dream Theater, especially their earlier albums. Had fairly high hopes for this album as well, but it disappointed me. The album isn't awful and I actually like the inclusion of the harsh vocals (although a few seconds into the opening track I figured I'd accidently played the wrong song). I just find most of the songs are fairly generic, some decent instrumentation and decent lyrical content, but nothing that really jumps out at me like old Dream Theater albums do. Most of the songs follow a fairly generic formula, not to say that that is a terrible thing... its just not what I was hoping for/expected from one of the key players over in Dream Theater.
Don't agree with such a high rating, but that's just me. |

| This album is very beatiful; the best prog metal album of the year. Very better than the previous. |
|
|
|
| This is a very awesome album and a nicely written review. Though the part of Dream Theater rewriting history made me laugh. Unfortunately of course, since I'm a big fan of theirs. |

I love the album cover, it looks like a poster for a bad movie  |
