Title: One of the greatest heavy rock albums of all time!
Review: For fans familiar with Dream Theater, nothing needs to be said about the musicianship. For new fans, it helps to listen to a song at least 5 to 10 times before passing judgement. The songs have so much depth that a listener cannot grasp it all with a single listen. I'm a guitar guy, John Petrucci is the most skilled rock guitar player in the world IMHO. Mike Portnoy's percussion on this album is mind boggling. Not just technical, but really accessible and interesting. This album, along with Octavarium, DT displays a new level of polish with their song writing that really appeals to my ear. Buy this album, listen to it ten times, and prepare to become a new obsessive Dream Theater fan.
