SIX DEGREES OF INNER TURBULENCE

Hard for me to believe that this was my second Dream Theater album purchase becaue once i got TRAIN OF THOUGHT i had to buy more of Dream Theater just to familize their sound. so a friend told to buy this and dude let me tell ya THIS CD IS AMAZING how can you not love the fact that 6 Degrees is one of DT's shining album in their discography. I mean i love IMAGES & WORDS, AWAKE, & MPT. 2 SFAM becuase i have them but i wanna give the under dog cds a chance like this one. Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence offers a great deal of prog metal of suchs songs as THE GLASS PRISON and THE GREAT DEBATE, to some mellow passages as BLIND FAITH and DISSAPPEAR, and to some hard rockin but techincally weird soloing of MISUNDERSTOOD. CD 1 is definitely full of music greatness however my favorite part of this album is CD 2 the 42 minute grand opus 6 DEGRESS OF INNER TURBULENCE now i'll admit first spin i was kinda bewildered but i gave it more time than ever and I LOVE THIS SONG from beginning to end its always a grand musically journey for me. The part that really bugs me is the fact that some people say its a semi-concept album dude its no where close to a concept album because disc two is one song GET IT RIGHT GAH.. lol anyway i love the fact that each member of the band does his part well but still no matter how great this cd is i still have to give a 4 1/2 out of 5 stars because well DISSAPPEAR sound a little too depressing for me and the spacey solo in misunderstood is just way too weird. EITHER WAY great cd its a must have in any prog metal collection.
