4 stars This album wins the price for being the worst produced album in the Dream Theater history, but despite this the band was on some kind of a high, reassured by the success of their rock opera. They took a decidedly heavier approach, for the first time pandering to the ever-growing nu-metal and metalcore audiences. "The Glass Prison" documents this change in style well, being their first "\M/ tr00 metal \M/" track ever and their best in my opinion. Besides trying to attract the metalheads they also went for the intellectual Tool fans with "The Great Debate" and Radiohead fans with "Disappear". The whole second cd is basically neoprog of some sort, similar in style to Spock's Beard, so this album has something for everyone and it's not stirred that much so most people will like at least one whole track from here. We are still not at the stage where Rudess will play 20 notes while pulling the pitch modulator up and down, and Petrucci then taking over with his vibrating right hand.
Salviaal | 4/5 |
