SIX DEGREES OF INNER TURBULENCE

With this record DT returns to a more complex writing, filled with stories and doubts, this record shows the tight bond in between the instrumental part, from here the band experiences a wider and more free exposure of playing, mixing new sounds like "scratching" with the keys or very deep sounds with the bass; but the weak point is that James Labrie losses his contact with the music (if he ever was in contact with it) in the credits, and appearing only as a collaborator with the lyrics. Any way, the record is excellent and very well mixed, trying to follow a sequence of sounds from beginning to end, and exploring with the lyrics with more important topics like cloning or alcoholism. thumbs up to a band that has survived the time test.
