Allmusic - bah, not as bad as RS, but still pretty mundane. I'd never take advice from them about an album over the word of those who know what they are talking about.
Eg: Progarchives. |

Thanks for posting - Not sure what to think about this... Allmusic did give RELAYER (YES) 3/5 after all... -Joel |

I would say its clear, but I have to say, it stands its own ground as a track, and I really like it. |

Sounds strong, but the Dogs influence is really clear.

I am still considering getting it, but when I can buy about 6 other CD's including THE INCIDENT for the same price, it seems a little bit over the top. |

It was worded perfectly IMO, and I've never heard that it would be split into the tracks before... Its meant to be one 55 minute track on CD1, and the other 4 tracks on CD2, to stress the difference and the lack of relation between the first track and the other four. -Joel |

play.com and amazon.co.uk suggest that the album will be split into 14 tracks whereas wikipedia is suggesting that it will just be one 55 minute track, which is correct?
edit: i think i worded that badly so an image is neccesary: Edited by g0rd0nb0mbay - August 07 2009 at 16:56 |

I heard it. I guess I'll need to hear what SW says about this. I was bashing DT for being copycats, but now this. A tough pill to swallow. However, SW didn't attend a well known music school. |

Thanks a ton for posting - Heres the rest of the details: LIMITED EDITION BOX SET includes: 2 CDs DVD with 5.1 surround sound mix + high resolution stereo 116 page hardback book of lyrics and Lasse Hoile photography 40 page paperback book of Hajo Mueller's drawings for "The Incident" Housed in rigid slipcase Limited Deluxe Edition Box Set / Pre-order now for £59.99 I'm liking the sound of it very much so, but it doesn't seem so attractive for the price tag... Thats probably around 125-135$ AUD for me including postage, and I'm not sure if I'm willing to spend that much on the Collector's Edition, however enticing and/or nicely presented it seems... |

Yep , i was thinking around the £100 mark myself
This is what is included in the DT special edition collectors box set btw , Dream Theater mouse mat. Find a silver foil ticket (100 lucky fans win a M&G w/ band) Lithograph of cover art, numbered (100 lucky winners will find a litho signed by Hugh Syme) Limited edition audiophile 180-gram double-LP set with exclusive artwork from Hugh Syme. Nice |

That would be awesome, i'd shell out £100ish for that! Maybe they'd throw in the insurgentes film dvd...what ever happened to that,eh?

Well , looking at the new Dream Theater collectors box set for Black Clouds & Silver Linings something like that wouldn't be bad , t-shirt signed art work and hopefully in dvda format like the Insurgentes album.
