John Myung: The only man to ever find the fountain of youth.
+Jared Ward Not the onlye one... Rudess is 60 years old
+Helio Borges SIXTY?!?! OMFG! He doesn't look it at all!
+Jared Ward it must be impossible to find jordan replacement... 10 years later...
+Helio Borges he's 49, (born in 1967) guys, not 60 :) 10 more years!
+Bryan Wertz Read the comments, Rudess is 60, not Myung.
Petrucci in evolving in a bear through the years. I'm starting to think he's like a pokemon
+Simone Bianchi Hahahahaha I can not agree more! The beard really makes him slowly evolving in something out of this world xD
+Simone Bianchi Looks like he walked off the set of Duck Dynasty.
Chris Hinton OMG You're right! o.o I will never look at him in the same way. Never Again.
+Simone Bianchi xD man that cracked me up !!!!! xD xD xD
+Simone Bianchi Mi hai fatto ammazzare dalle risate! XD
LaBrie: "People just don't have the time for music anymore."
Two hours later...
He says, as they proceed to write a whole 30-something track album
... he proves his point.
No one hates Dream Theater more than Dream Theater fans
lol
+Greyvox Daddio so tru
I agree😂
Haha cool one! True
Seems like you really understand that feeling..
Let me guess, you're also a fan.. :p
Oh fuck yeah, they brought back the "Images and Words" snare sample. yesssssssssssss
+66Samus PFF walks PFF god PFF mong PFF PFF seen PFF wri-PFF on PFF wall!
Why do they insist on triggering Mangini? He's got great dynamics and they hide 'em behind samples.
***** I agree totally!
+Fabián Riquelme because some lazy fuckers in the industry would rather trigger drums and when they mix it they just hit quantize and done
+clintusmaximus I would've hoped that fucking plague died along with disco. We are stuck with it, it seems...
thank you Mangini 👏
What I love about this song is that despite not having an actual chorus, it still manages to be incredibly catchy! Makes it great for a single while also having the progressive structure.
Very cool songwriting the verse kind of feeds into itself and feels like a big chorus
Wow, I never even noticed that. The whole song feels kinda like a chorus.
Chorus #1 starts at 1:05
@@hylthekj5927 But that section is never repeated...
@@TheNerdyGinger 1:56 this is a common dream theater tactic, where the first chorus is a quite one then the second chorus is heavier.
Underrated song and underrated album
Every time Jordan lay his fingers on the keyboard it's magic. Love this album.
On this album, Jordan has shown a lot of restraint and is absolutely brilliant with his piano melodies, reminds me of Benny Anderson's parts from ABBA songs. He has done something for the 1st time since disc 2 of 6DOIT - give superb atmospheres that would drawn in the listener. I hope he has left his wankery days behind, because to me, this is Jordan at his best, a concert pianist at heart.
We need more of this Jordan, not 2000s wank boy under the control of Portnoy and Petrucci.
This album is criminally underrated. The more I listen to "The Astonishing", the more I get drawn towards it. I love the whole post apocalyptic dystopian vibe on this album (and is primarily based on the same subject matter).
People often complain about the duration of the album. In my opinion 2 Hours & 10 Minutes is just a perfect length for a concept which spans across 2 Discs / 4 Vinyl's. There are 9 characters on the album (including the narrator) and to represent them while singing is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING. I think folks who dislike this album for whatever reasons, must revisit and experience the camaraderie these 5 magnificent musicians harbor. This album is a GEM!
Me too, man. Took me too long to listen to it. (To be fair, it was also because it takes a considerable amount of dedication to do it right, since it's so lengthy... but man, is it worth it.)
@@Celso_Luis: I'm glad you love this record. The album clocks precisely 2 Hours & 10 Minutes in length, therefore there are just too many things to grasp. With a few listens one gets the hang of things and it gets easier on the ears. Every minute of this album is elucidating musically if not lyrically!
@@BreakingAllIllusions You're absolutely right! After a few listens you start to notice more and more details that make it even better. And I'm specially surprised with how Petrucci was able to build such an interesting world and to make us care so much about the characters, even without the help of the additional context to the story (James knocked it out of the park with his performance as well). I can't remember the last MOVIE that made me feel us much for a character as I did for Arhys, for instance.
James Labrie still has a strong voice amazing! good job Dream Theater
@Dutch van der Linde thats not autotune
You got a plan
can't be compare with James in the Ytse jam .. :D
@@CyberOrca lol
but singing live..
great vocal performance in this song
That is a stunningly gorgeous guitar
The fucking Majesty.
Also the price is astonishing!
+1addictsad78 l...l...looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
Do these guys look much much younger or is it just me? Must be their music, it keeps me young, body and mind. I will always have time for music, don't worry, at least for your music for sure.
+Freezing Moon The singer clearly dyes his hair and beard.
Bill Hicks Youth ain't all about appearances son.
He looks like a tit.
Yup, sexy as hell. He could be my father but I'm definitely having a crush on him.
+Freezing Moon Didn't you listen to the song? No one has the time for music anymore.
Every 2 days I'm back to watch this
In fact they are never failed to give us musics. Sometimes I hear their songs for spiritual needs. Thank you, Dream Theater 😊🎸
This album is awesome. Comes with a Map of the land the Album's music is made. Pictures of every character. It is a Game Of Thrones era, story, castles, etc. Labrie sings verses, that are a character speaking, or narrating. The choruses are responses from another character/s. I love this album, it is awesome. Always loved DT. The whole album is a story told through music.
That’s what Metropolis is and it’s 10000x better.
@@empyrean-jamelgreaves8034 what the fuck? They are completely different stories bro
@@empyrean-jamelgreaves8034whatever no its not 😑
@@Bloorgusgoorgeexactly this dude is a dimwit
I wasn't talking about the story's contents you thick fucks. Just that its a concept album in the exact same fucking way The Astonishing is, it has places, characters etc.
And the OP was so knowledgeable weren't he? A game of thrones era with castles and a........ story? yeah, that's what makes GoT.............
And it's nothing like GoT it's more along the lines of a mix between Bladerunner and Dune. Calling me out where is for the OP? GoT is nothing like the Astonishing whatsoever. But yeah I suppose idk anything do I?
Astonished by The Astonishing. Simply perfect.
Magini is a machine... amazing..
The old man is a monster!
"People just don't have the time for music anymore," then why are you writing 30 minute songs 😂 I'm just kidding I love DT
23rd century xD
Jake Marrotta Drums *42-minute long songs
Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence
more like 30 4 minute songs
People don't have the time for other music anymore))
The ending with the jungle keyboard sound is incredible. I mean it
James is the only human on earth, wich has the Talent to Dance to progressive metal. :D
+JallyBlue :D He looks badass at 0:14.
+Azortharion House ....Jimmy Lambrini has never looked like a badass lol!!!
what a legend
How do you dance to the Mirror?
Wow, cool seeing this guys again...
"People just don’t have the time for music anymore but no one seems to care". Inspiring lyrics, some visionary.
Ahaha..much deep, such meaning.
+smalltime87 Wow.
+Camilov Sky You do realize it's part of a story, right? The first song in SFAM opens with "Hello Victoria, so glad to see you my friend" along with many other poorly written lines throughout the album because it is not meant to be taken out of the story's context.If you're looking for some deep meaning in your music you're clearly listening to the wrong band to begin with.
+Ido Wolf Sorry Mr smarty, jejejeje
+Camilov Sky Seems very inspired by 2112 to me. A dystopian future, music being left aside...
i love Dream Theater :*
I love DT too :D
Berlian Triana Lestari i love u too :v
Berlian Triana Lestari you love DT and I love u, so I love DT :*
Berlian Triana Lestari i love u too :*
Hell yes! Second that. Their music makes my head spin and my heart ache.
Just love his voice.
love Dream Theater, and this is a true masterpiece.
LaBrie looks like the member of Slytherin
+Harley Quinn Mangini reminds me of Severus Snape.
+Marcelo Rangel Yup, a little bit look alike... LOL
+Harley Quinn and you look nothing like the bitch from the new Suicidal Squad movie. Kudos on you, take my likes!
+Marcelo Rangel and Rudess is like a shaved Gandalf or Dumbledore
IronSabbathPriest True! LOL!
This album is so under appreciated.
Too many ballads. I love DT but I can't stand over an hour of ballads, specially with the cliché theme of the album.
agreed. I fucking love it so m uch.
It's basically a mess. So many songs just feel like they're small snippets of a song of about 2-3 minutes and they all feel like they're not split properly on the discs.
This is a great song, hands down. I really wish Petrucci would get a coproducer because they need that extra outside influence.
@@SantiAguirre619too many ballads My ass stop hating 😐
I always tried to understand those who didn’t like the astonishing, or the band’s performance in it especially Myung and Mangini, but guys, please show me a less dream-theaterical song than this ? Also, show me a band that can manage to write such a HUGE musical movie!
Love you DT, this is just too awsome after 7 years !
dt videos will never be as good as their musical majesty
+Fabio La Manna Why should it be? Nobody cares about videos. Everything *must* be perfect when talking about DT? Come on, they are musicians! Rush doesn't care too much about video either.
+samuelfuzati if they have realized videos it means they care,and if you are going to make something good you will have more publicity i think.that is 2016,video era. if you make a 25hours long concept rock album with a story,maybe someone cares ;)
+Fabio La Manna It's a prog music law (on most cases). Your videos and album art should be shitty, so your music can be great.
+Fabio La Manna Who cares? DT is for the ears.
+Evan Eberhardt i agree,after all
I suppose most of the budget went towards the massive album rather than the music video. Whatever, it's the music that matters most, and I'm loving the album!
TheNerdyGinger They certainly did not got to drum production
K9 Rootless Haha, true!
Well, no one pays for music anymore, so beggers can't be choosers.
I prefer videos like this.
I kinda like it’s rawness - there’s value in that.
Want production? Transcending Time is a phenom!
This is my first time listening to this band and they are really good
keep listening their entire catalog is worth exploring!
Definitely check out Images and Words, A Change of Seasons and Scenes From A Memory.
Train of Thought too XD
Just keep an open mind when you listen to each album, as they are all very different. You can still hear their signature sound, but they are really good at bringing something new to the table!
me tooo
1:22 I wonder if the sound engineer who worked on this still has a job. . .
BEST. BAND. EVER.
NOT.NOT.NOT
That's not Rush
@@MrNWA4Life
Mike Mangini blows away Neil Peart and better bass player and guitars than Rush
@@aarondiaz1433
Stop smoking crack.
I 3000% agree😊😊😊
2:06 I love the drums in that minute.
Let's put it this way-- to see JP and Rudess visually intertwining their solos at the end of this song is absolutely amazing
"People just don't have the time for music anymore,"
i am not the one of those people
wow!! this is so awesome....Dream Theater my band!! DT Forever!
as well as FW!
It has became a tradition of Dream Theater to use poor man's CGI I see...
+Las Desventuras de Virus lol
+VisualPlague Yes, and DT has been using his shitty art just because of his involvement with Rush (since all DT members were major Rush fanboys).
His pieces look like a 5 year old cut random images from magazines and then glued them together. I am no artist but I know at least a handful of art students who make better album graphics while charging only a three digit number.
+Hans Maulwurf ikr. images and words cover is the shit tho...
+Las Desventuras de Virus Nah bro, it's "vintage"
lmao
+Las Desventuras de Virus who needs cgi when you got the gift of music?
James is truly great in this one
"Music is the gift he brings, the song bird stops to listen when he sings." Best lyric on the album
Nice hair james
hahahaha
PLEASE, tell me this "graphic design" company won't make the supporting videos for the tour. C'mon DT, this is everything but professional.
+Stefano Ceschi Berrini the design company actually did a great job: the design of the characters and scenarios are very well projected.
The issue here is the render quality and overuse of the same render images, while using some features in After Effects to make it look like they have motion: the solution for this, is having the money/will to pay the full price for the render quality!
If this is a budget problem, or a DT taste and the band felt no need to pay for more render quality, will never know but I tell you this: this is not the Design Company to blame!
+Luke Morales I partly agree. I need to better explain what I meant :) : There's no doubt the characters and scenarios are good. They're good as static images. Here, the real big problem regards - apart from the render quality - the motion and effects: it's something absolutely not professional. Look also at the trailer, someone with some grasps of AE would've done a much better job.
Yeah, I do agree the motion and effects are not in a professional quality, but again: this is budget related! You can't have a professional quality motion if You're not willing to pay for it!
Unfortunately, DT never seems to invest a good amount of money in visual effects... as someone commented somewhere this video: "Default DT video: musicians playing and bad CGI"
+Luke Morales absolutely, yeah! Btw, if it was just for those kind of videos, ok, who cares, whatever! Problem here could be related to the footage they're gonna prepare for the tour. I just *hope* it won't be the same mediocre stuff. It'd be a pity, also 'coz the music on this album is IMHO absolutely epic!
Stefano Ceschi Berrini sorry to disappoint you but, probably what we saw in the teaser is already the tour footage =/
the "there walks a God amung us" (1:38) part is so groovy. Gets me in the feels every time.
goosebumps on that choir voices from 1:53
I imagine showing this video to DT back in 1990 and tell them this is you in 26 years.. I wonder how they would react, but I'm sure portnoy will assume he died
hahaha good one
Hhahaa yeah
He'll think he fucking massacred his liver lol
...and Kevin Moore will think that he's going bald
@@riccc6125 hahahahahaha......Bravo! You made my day, R I C C C! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
MY FAVORITE BAND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
That guitar solo though....beautiful!
What a frickin great band! I love that they made this album. I think it's absolute perfection. It's perfect to throw this on as i sit on my deck watching the waves come in as my lady and I drink some wine and some ice cold Sam Adams. Not too many bands would take the time to make something like this. I can't wait to go see it live in Chicago. In my opinion, every DT album kicks ass. They are in a class by themselves and they bring me great enjoyment in my life. Music would not be the same without Dream Theater.
It just gets better and better every time i come back and listen to it.
What a fascinating type of musical depth that is.
This album is sick. And i'm a diehard fan. All the fans who dislike this album, keep in mind it's a concept album that's made to be an epic. The next album will probably be a normal one again. Exited for more 10+ minute songs.
this album is gay af.. It really went down hard after on backs of broken angels even though the drums sounded eh
Albums don't have genders.
did u just assume the album's gender.
I don't hate the music on the Astonishing but it's the story that is the part that makes it not of a fulfilling experience I think. It's very hokey, Disney-ish and not fully "world-developed". They should've hired a sci-fi fantasy writer to expand the outline and fill the plot holes that JP wrote. Yes I am aware they are adapting a novel. I mean in the narrative sense of the album.
Why? Really? Someone dislike the album? I think it's a masterpiece. Very musical one. A lot of sad songs on the second part, but still - a lot of musical thought
those clean riff .. just out of words
1:08 One of the most beautiful parts I've ever heard...
You see how everyone cares about the music video but not the music?
Lol yes
+Tony Shing Siu Sze In fairness, we all know the song by this point. The video is the new thing to talk about here.
+Tony Shing Siu Sze Exactly! I thought this was AWESOME!
+Tony Shing Siu Sze It seems that people only make comments if they want to be negative or totally positive. Those in the former category can't find anything wrong with the 'music', because it's f#%king amazing, so they make comments about the video instead.
Yup, it's fuckin stupid lol
30 years on and still the best progressive rock band of all time
😂😂😂😂😂😂
0:35 Look in the top right hand corner
FAIL LMFAO
Great song though.
It's a glitch Nomac
Left side too. ;-)
LOL
Lol
Hahaha
1:22 "People just dont have the tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime for music anymore"
This bloody audio pitch slide down thingy!!! Just can't unhear it...
Mate I was having me a wanker when I read this and made me LOL
Maybe was censored
Why does it do that? Surely is not intentional
Dream Trigger
Andrés Valdebenito The mechanized Mangini's drums too much they might as well just arrange the drums with a Drum VST.
reevaluate that trigger and see just how it all pans out. self analysis is my new key. I'm a Christian but i gotta love myself too as to love one another....
Glad to hear such a refreshing song from Dream Theater... It feels like they are trying to get back to the days of "When Day and Dream Unite" and "Images and Words". Majestic...
This was the *real winner* of the 2016 Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance.
the solo is magic...
man some of dream theatre's music sound like video game scores
wish they'd do more stuff like 'to live forever' from the japan tour in the 90's
I just loved the album! It makes me cry everytime, a masterpiece! Thank you guys, thank you so much for giving us this beautiful album. Bought it and heared it like ten times already.
イメージズ＆ワーズ時代が大好きで、楽曲がヘヴィ指向になってから離れてたけど、ポートノイが脱退してからメトロポリスpart2の頃のようなメロディアスな路線に戻って来てくれたんだね。 すっごい嬉しい！！ マイク・マンジーニも応援してるよー！！
You have a point
very best song of this album...my guitar god john petrucci will always remain as an outstanding player
The best Dream Theatre video ever.
Best Dream Theater music video!!!
DREAM THEATER FOREVER.....!!!
3:38 Bigger duet and feeling of the entire music history!
Best band of the universe
Listening to this on a loop will boost your I.Q. 20 points. It's masterful musicianship. DT are the Mozarts and Beethovens of our day. (No. I'm not kidding.)
This is my favorite album
Just saw you guys live in Milan... After such a show on a side I have a big sense of emptiness, on the other side I have a beautiful memory: a wonderful crowd full of energy, the music, and so many emotions. The music is the greatest thing humans have ever created. Thank you Dream Theater for The Gift of Music.
I'm getting goosebumps listening to this. Awesome footage of the band kickin' a$$ and taking names! Wow...
1:40 oh no :3
Classic Dream Theater!
Rock guys hate him for his ability and choice to play perfectly on the beats at will, but those great classical composers of the past would have loved him.
He's a unicorn in that sense.
I love mancini's style. Hearsay incoming, I prefer Mancini over Portnoy.
@@ficklefingeroffate - Without question. I never cared for Portnoy.
Amazing! I love "The Astonishing!".
Dream Theater is "AMAZING", no question about it! They're very underrated and under appreciated. These guys put their heart & soul into their music and I'm so glad I'm living in their generation to be able to hear, listen & luv them!Keep it guys, you make music like it should;D
the solo is very dreamly
Best band ever formed
My favourite album of Dream Theater
such a masterpiece. seriously this is art and music at its finest its sad people would rather to justin bieber than true art like this
this is closer to bieber than to real dream theater
Im a jazz guy never listened to these guys and this literally sounds worse than a pokemon esque soundtrack, guess to each their own but this seems like 12 year old music.
no, it's not that bad. many dt fans are disappointed with this album, but this is solid music. though this song is very pop
umm you should listen to queen thats pure talent
Tyler Lopez I agree with you man!! These guys are talented just as much as Queen! Forget the naysayers dude!😉
AMAZING!!!
0:46 face of pure enthusiasm.
I never listen better music than Dream Theater.
James looks really cool in this.
agreed
Yeah like Boy George cool right?
If you saw this show live you would understand how amazing this production was! Was like watching a Broadway play! Incredible!!!!
Some people I knew played Dream Theater songs at a music festival
man am I glad I was introduced to these guys
Great stuff. Can't see why people are not 'getting' the new album, I think it's great.
I am totally obsessed with this song! Cant wait to see them On April 16th! its gonna be epic! :D
MY WISH... Long live Dream Theater.. Till the end of time..!!
Great music! Great musicianship! These guys indeed have the gift of music!
Dream Theater? 4 Minutes song? :O
incredible
They made songs less than 4 minutes long before
Overture 1928, I Walk Beside You, and War Inside My Head if you could count that
Dream Theater as always great works.
Mangini looks like a little kid in a candy store. Such joy in his body language while playing.
Great song
I like this CD, I dont care what anybody says. The more I listen to it the more I like it. Now to burn the new one to CD and start listening to it.
Burn?
