James is gonna need therapy? I know just the guy. "Close your eyes and begin to relax..."
Lmao! That would be a marvelous choice given the fact that I'm personally not impressed with the new album. I've been listening to them since '97. I don't totally dislike the album but there's certainly some musical technicality missing in this. Just my two cents. Alas, this won't stop me from listening to them. I'll be seeing them here in Denver on May 3th. I'm ecstatic to say the least!
Half way into this album he was like "Conscience....fading.."
The therapist was a killer so don't even we need our James
Best comment ever!
James is gonna need therapy. Let's go on two world tours with him anyway.
Myung couldn't make the interview. He was writing the lyrics to the next album.
Hhahahahahah
+Desertwhale hahahahahahahahahaha
ahhahahahahha
+Desertwhale Oh boy. I can't wait for the all instrumental album.
+Desertwhale don't make fun of myung's lyrical writing skills. he has wrote stuff and it's always the not so straight, mysterical stuff. the joke is to say he is doing the vocals for the next album. THAT would be liquid tension experiment 3
Next album they should let Mangini and Myung write the whole album, and let Mangini engineer his drums (I'm sure he can make em sound better than that Rich guy can).
Myungs writing is beautiful ! I wish he would write more often !
Jack O'Connor Ohhh yeah
+ThatCheapDrummer I agree with this
+ThatCheapDrummer Why?
+Spirit Well, writing wise I don't care as much, because the album was a great listen in that sense. But The drums, for the second album in a row, sounded like a snare drum falling into a pile of horse shit.
0:21 James says "abOUT" finally reminding everyone he's Canadian af.
James deserves the therapy. It's freaking awesome. He is the MVP on this album. Unimaginable how his age doing some multiple characters. These guys deserves my money
I can wait to meet Dream Theater on April 16!
James Labrie is such an artist. People like to talk a lot of shit but I can't imagine rock music without his input and influence.
He's actually a very funny and chill dude. Got to meet him when he played in NY earlier this year. Very chill. Not Corey Taylor chill, but much more chill than I expected. lol
Sorry to be THAT guy, but I REALLY miss MP.
I have nothing against Mangini, and I still love DT and their music, it's just... How great would it be if they found a way? Every new DT album that comes out, every interview, every live show, every DVD makes me wish he was there. This has been harder to deal with than break ups, haha.
The guys looking healthy as ever! Cant wait for friday when the album gets released :D
it's gonna be awesome!! can't wait to get a copy of it!! Yeah DT Forever!
this was so good!!
When my dad introduced me into to you guys I listened and nodded my head so after that I went on with my life soon after I heard my friends listening to it so I listened to Train of Thought and I wanted more so thank you for making these amazing songs keep going guys 👍
Great band! always loved dream theater
great guys ! great album \m/
We love you guys, forever.
i think this is it! this is the missing album! this is the album i was looking for from DT :)
amazing show
These guys are so cool!!!!!!
I think the difficult part is, is that this is the most changing album they have made for the listener to get into.
Welcome to "the astonishing" world. Anyone who enjoys this album like me? besides of listening the entire songs as a thematic album. what is your fav song as a single track? moment of betrayal, the x-aspect, begin again, road to revolution :)
I just really discovered this album, I love putting it on and just listening to the story and the all the elements that have gone into it. Still haven't formed an opinion on my favourite piece yet, but I really think you have to be missing something to not enjoy this album for what it is.
"A Life Left Behind"
That's probably one of the most progressive songs I've ever heard since Octavarium, A Change of Seasons, Dance of Eternity, and Lost Not Forgotton. It's a lighter song, but man the instrumental aspects, James' voice, and that intro to the song is just killer. And what I like about the song is that it's light. Some of the DT fans are too into the heavier songs and they don't like anything else. I don't get the DT fans. I like everything they've done so far.
@@drillcream - I'm responding to your 2 year old comment here, but I also just really "discovered" The Astonishing album by Dream Theater a couple months ago. I have almost all of DT's albums going back, but I didn't get into the Astonishing until recently. Now it's one of my favorites from them. My mistake before was not taking this album for what it was meant to be.
@@IKARIANOFFICIAL not recognising some music for what it was has been a mistake I've made many times before hehe.. I haven't listened to it in a while, gonna put it on now while I'm working
The Astonishing the best dream theater album! really astonishing!
Ravenskill is one of my favs too!
Such a cool band :)
John and Jordan have became the band and that isn't really a good thing
That's absolutely true
+TYFLOL What's funny is they always have been. Own a few of their CD's and look at who's credited for the majority of the songs.
Brutus Kennedy Rutherford III Yeah I know they sometimes write songs on their own, but most of the time Portnoy and Myung cowrote the songs as well, which isn't the case this time
I can't agree Tyflol, Rudess particularly brings a splendid orchestral musical dimension to DT, think of the Overture on SDOIT and that will always please me and JP is a splendid lyricist, like Peart, so I am more than happy to have them as "the band".
***** *beardog
I love The Astonishing, and I myself told John PEtrucci that for me this is one of their best.
Claudio Cesar Custodio Junior well now I’ve heard everything. I need therapy now.
Yeeaaah Ravenskill is the best of the entire album! :D
Three days, heavens cove, A new beginning.
Ravenskill is the biggest atmosphere set up for the album imo, next to dystopian overture.
because you know, it's the overture.
+John Epps My favorite is The Path That Divides
I've actually become quite fond of the track before it, A Life Left Behind.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Since these music Gods did the best job, I absolutely like their music.
best band hands down 2017.
i love
I can't wait to hear the whole album and see what LaBrie was talking about.
+quintin tabura It has been leaked, if you really wanna hear it you can. Check out reddit.com/r/ravenskill
+Azortharion House How do I play the song?
+brazwen Well, firstly, it's an album.
Download link: drive.google.com/file/d/0B2saNm1QTk_-bnNXSlBSdHNNWVk/view
Don't be a dick and actually buy the album if you like it, though.
I'll definitely be buying the album.
+brazwen Dont download it, you can listen in spotfy for free and then bye the album.
The one that shined in this entire new album was James. He was on point.
it is interesting. she. James mentioned that he would try out different vocal styles, then listen back to see if it worked or not. this is exactly what I do as an amateur author and reader. I write a final draft, then I check how the word choice fits with the mood of the piece. it is cool how such seemingly different artistic fields have such similarity.
Labrie looks so fuckin cool here
Excelso trabajo pirata
Best music composers in the world!
I need therapy after hearing James sing live lately.
Lol!! You're so mean!!!!
To me, his best singing is in Systematic Chaos. Powerful, melodic, epic and all METAL!!
actually, you can tweak Mangini - Drum sound by using Rack Graphic Equalizer and adding a little of Reverb -Pioneer Reverb Rack and using a Pioneer Subwoofer that has - it's own Volume , and can adjust the Subwoofer level.. But when I listened to this Album whithout using anything - really the Drum Sound is not so good.- especially on headphones.
Jordan, John, James, John, and Mike
He said his favorite song was the path that divides earlier
Better life
Cool
WOAO
deberían implementar los subtítulos, tienen muchos seguidores de habla hispana y no sabemos inglés... por favor :)
Emilio Ceceña Consegui la app duolingo y aprende, no te vas a arrepentir :)
+Emilio Ceceña perdón pero en un tiempo como ahora no entiendo la gente que no sabe por lo menos un poco de ingles, especialmente personas jóvenes. conozco mucha gente en argentina, brasil etc, y me encanta la gente, pero me molesta que ni trata de aprender ingles.
Friedrich Christian Stenzel perdón pero hay muchas personas como yo, que nos encantaría y nos interesa aprender inglés, pero por cuestiones de dinero no tenemos la oportunidad de hacerlo... Saludos may :)

James Fucking Labrie!
Never mind which voice James is doing on stage, the question is, will he be able to sing in tune?
have you watched live videos?
after D+E4 he can't.
his vocal range is now limited to E2- D4
when it used to be E2- G5 ( with occasional A5's )
Alguém legenda isso por favor !!1
I love Dream Theater songs like Pull Me Under and Take the Time, but most of their catalog seems too ballad driven for me, what songs should I check out?
I really like the train of thought album. each album typically has a different feel to it. like on the album awake labrie's vocals were a bit grittier but the more recent ones all sound fairly similar and ballad-ish. some of the songs I would recommend are, these walls, as I am, in the name of god, forsaken, enemy inside, outcry, and the entire metropolis album. hope that helps
a lot of those individual songs I listed are newerish
I listened to it, but I have NO IDEA what the story is.
who's the most nervous people in this video ? :)
The angelic and religious themes, to me, seem to be an intellectual weakness for this band. While the instrumental and vocal ability seems very well thought out, and practiced, the themes and lyrics are very cliche and unsophisticated surprisingly. There have been times, however, where the theme was not religious, or pretentious, in any way, but asked some sort of philosophical question. THAT is the Dream Theater I enjoy more, where the theming and lyrics are just as sophisticated as the rest of the work.
+Vex You know, I think it's quite disrespectful to say that religious themes are not intellectual, and I couldn't disagree more.
Lindy Enalya For curiosity's sake, why?
+Lindy Enalya No disrespect intended, but to appeal to religious content that happens to reflect one's own context is a testament to the conviction that is required to believe religious claims. It's only disappointing, because I know they can reach broader subject matter, instead of appealing to what is popular, or what they were born into.
+Vex I don't think that religion in music is unintelligent, but it very easily can be. I also agree that dream theater lyrics haven't been all that great since octavarium
+Vex Because I think that searching for and speaking about the truth of (the origin of) life is an intelligent topic. Besides, they have reached a broader subject matter in many other songs.
James, you are a grown man and talking seriously about a dude name "Lord Nafaryus." This album is an adolescent band camp fantasy embarrassment for a legendary prog-metal band to have even considered.
+perfektspace Petrucci was the one who came up with the story, the characters, and all the lyrics. It's not James's fault. ;-)
+perfektspace Petrucci ain't Tolkien!
+perfektspace If you don't like fantasy stories then it's your problem. There are people who stop dreaming when they grow, but there are others who likes fairy tales and fantasy stories
and only a legendary prog-metal band could pull this album off, this is not easy work. It takes skill and experience.
'conjures up human imagination'? it's IMAGES you conjure IN the imagination, dude.
Plus, the album is cheezy as my refrigirator of masdamer.
it's happening. they cancelled one of their shows in Europe. I hope nothing serious.. get well JLB
hahhahahahha
Petrucci s left bicep is way to smaller than his right.
Shaleen Sharma I wonder why 😂😂
They need to get back on medication.. or this is gonna be awesome
therapy for james? it's voice therapy?
+candra abdurrahman Psychological. It was a joke
Cannot fix it without evertune
I listen to DT since 1992, and I use to love it to death, but after Mike Portnoy got out (because Labrie, and I hate him for that, he is the one that should be out of the band) it's just not the same, I don't have any fillings listening to DT anymore, it's like the crazy love just fade away, now it's boring for me to listen to DT, and don't get me wrong, still an amazing band, but, I don't care for listening anymore... It's sad... I really hate you Labrie... Really!
Aaaaalriiiight, so DT spent all the time writing LYRICS. When the time came to actually write MUSIC, they just slapped some mish-mash of regurgitated reusable parts from previous albums. Cuz now the songs sound like a non-stop pastiche of the cheesiest DT material to date.
Hey, please try a reverse approach next time. MAKE ORIGINAL MUSIC first, and then slap some texts together. Oh, and nevermind the content, the lyrics can be half-baked, just sing about whatever, cuz YOUR"E A GODDAMNED PROGRESSIVE METAL BAND!!!!!!
if I wanna read a story, I'll go to book store, thank you very much. ))
The drums sound electronic and triggered. And this sounds like Jordan forced this project and ran with it. Way too much keyboards. Since when is a guitar driven band the lesser instrument to the keyboards. And all the 1/2 time ballad style songs. About 10 keyboard driven tunes under 2 minutes. Most of the songs start w/keyboards. And stuff that reminds me of Disneyland. Should have been called Jordan Rudess and Friends.
Brutus Kennedy Rutherford III Thanks dad. We all have opinions. Just like you think everyone cares what ur full name is. Was I wrong, Is there less than 50 % of the album that's not ballads from a progressive rock band?
Exactly jordan and his ark
Say what you want but his vocals have improved since Portnoy left. Could be autotune, but at least it’s not that out of tune wailing
what piece of astonishing dull cheese
the álbum is too long
the look so tired. Why James picked Ravenskill, I have ko idea. I find it has some of the worst lyrics.
Well, maybe I`ll get into this album with the flow of time....but for now the only word to describe this release is BORING!
Three years on from this complete and utter turd of an album and this video simply gets more and more cringeworthy.
this album is crap...wedding music .
