Negative Positive
Title: Very Disappointing.
Review: I want to start off by saying that i am a HUGE fan of DT and i went into this album thinking i was getting a great album, as we've come to expect from DT. Well, let's just say i was very disappointed. DT totally dropped the ball and made a mediocre Metallica-esque album that is not bad, just not DT. All of the songs sound almost the same, except the pitifully terrible Vacant, and the Superb Stream of conciousness. All of the other songs are okay, but they don't have that talent or oomph that we usually get from DT. There are some monstrous Petrucci and Portnoy moments, but they don't seem to match the song they're in. It wouldn't be a bad album if it wasn't from DT, because we expect so much more from them. Unless you're truly diehard, or you are open to new types of music, AVOID.
