Think about it this way, they are CONSTSNTLY coming up with musical ideas, literally all the time. They just take 3 weeks to condense all their individual ideas into solidified music.
Mangini knows better. Portnoy is great, but still very overrated. Mike Portnoy's reputation as a drummer is like an average Asian guy, bragging about his "big" dick.
It only took them three weeks? THREE WEEK?! This album has some amazing tracks on it. Endless Sacrifice and Stream of Consciousness are some of my all time favorite DT songs and they did it in three weeks. Amazing.
Mike is the drummer that every band wants to have ! i mean first of all he can play everything ,he listends the riffs carefully and he's dont play all the time in rehershall,he knows theory and hes passionate about the writing process and the music part compare with the most drummers dont even care about all this things!
Not a big mistery.. From ADToE until now it's OBVIOUS that Mike not being in the band is the main reason why the music is different... (Second reason: DT music has always been different from one album to another..)
Their music feels directionless since he left. Like they are still amazing players, but seems like the songs don't really make a statement and don't really tug at the heart strings. The drums also sound sterile imo. It seems like they are following a formula of expections. Some nice songs, some loud songs, include a long epic for formality. Impressive to listen to, but something is missing. Ive recently gone back and started listening to awake and images and words and six degreese. I forgot how damn good they were.
True, but very has been a definite difference since Mike left. Also it feels like each album isn't Progressing like before, this could be just a case of the guys getting on in their musical lives or something Mike brought to the table. I.E every album since Mike left has a similar base "feel" to the music. Where as before each album not only conceptually was different, but the approach was also very new.
Actually a Mark Tremonti Signature Model given to him by MT himself - he and JP got to be friends (I believe a Gear Connection: both using Mesa Boogie? Tremonti also has stated that he practiced to "Rock Discipline" before Creed got big) and both gave each other their Signature Models...and I believe both got used on the other band's recordings.
I just love the process of them making music. JP figuring out the beginning to Honor Thy Father and MP figuring out how to play the drums to the riff. Just amazing for the type of music they make.
I must admit I did not think DT would be so diff. without Portnoy. But in only 3 albums they have wandered so far away... I stand corrected, they should have taken the break he needed and come back stronger. At the very least, hindsight being 20/20, they should have gone with Marcus as their new drummer...
This video as a kid destroyed me. I, like wtf, how can you go from here n there. They are talented, wish I had ppl around me that would just jam n try.
So you're telling me they made the Unison in In the name of god in under 3 weeks. Let alone probably only 1-2 days total. I can't even do the first measure in that unison and I'm not even the one who invented it. Fuck Dream Theater they are too good.
Maybe because you don't know what a guitar is? A guitar is an instrument, not music. Oh and btw, Alex Lifeson used Gibson LesPauls BEFORE Rush and still does. Man, you don't have any idea what you're talking about.
Petrucci looks big these days, what is he eating or drinking? He used to be so skinny and had that rock guitarist look to him. Also I miss his Picasso style Ibanez guitars or whatever they were. The look mint.
it took them 3 weeks to write my favorite album? shit
Its so cool seeing the pieces of iconic songs come together
one of the best albums...
Writing fucking Train of Thought in 3 weeks? That blows my mind.
They are god of them way. I really love them when they're with Mr. Portnoy
they write almost everything in 3 weeks
Think about it this way, they are CONSTSNTLY coming up with musical ideas, literally all the time. They just take 3 weeks to condense all their individual ideas into solidified music.
Master of Puppest was written in 8 weeks. When you're inspired, these things happen.
Portnoy 2024 2 Month for drums Part ...so wow Epic 16th album to come !!! I think 7 songs 10 15 min of each , like a mix of Black Clouds and Train Of
Mike is not only one hell of a drummer but he has such good ideas for arrangement,I miss him for that...
Agreed.. there is an element in the music that's been missing since his departure.
I miss those awesome sunglasses lol. Portnoy is fantastic
Mangini ain't no slouch in the way of that, either. But yeah. I miss Portnoy in DT too.
U guys complaining about dt's sound today just got old and stuck up with the band's early days (and your younger years)
instablaster.
and here we see an example of how important portnoy was in the sound/songwriting of DT. petrucci and him where a great team \m/
LTE 3!
Is James the official DT's cameraman? 😁
Portnoy really knows what a good song is all about.
+Sam De Paepe Yea he does...
Mangini knows better. Portnoy is great, but still very overrated. Mike Portnoy's reputation as a drummer is like an average Asian guy, bragging about his "big" dick.
+Sam De Paepe he is a Master Class ..That's normal
@@gavinmcclinsey8168 Portnoy musician ..Mangini only.
Drummer
U understand idiot?
@@wildan29ijudin94 I support you man. There's so true.

Mike's influence in DT is and always will be irreplaceable in all ways...
3 weeks... pure geniuses!
Seeing John Petrucci with a PRS is always mindblowing 😂
Magic happening at 2:26
Metal! boy do i miss they heavy stuff they used to do... :(
And now many people wonder why DT is so different..see how much important Mike was for writing? Damn I really do miss that man..
That's so sooooo true... nowadays it's too much of Jordan I think.
Not a big mistery.. From ADToE until now it's OBVIOUS that Mike not being in the band is the main reason why the music is different... (Second reason: DT music has always been different from one album to another..)
Pablo Pallares Well, I don't really think their last 3 studio albums sounded different from those in the past (perhaps the last one).
Their music feels directionless since he left. Like they are still amazing players, but seems like the songs don't really make a statement and don't really tug at the heart strings. The drums also sound sterile imo.

Wow, Petrucci plays with a PRS 5:16
yep gift from mark tremonti
Valla ben de şoktayım
Best guitars around :)
Omair Sheikh, lol 😂
i wish i lived in one of those departmentes next door...
Heyy ur the guy... I watch ur videos
Myung is the only one who hasn't changed his looks in the twenty plus years they've been together.

6:58 Gets me every FRICKING time 😂😂😂
world's most technical guitarist with world's most technical drummer
True, Mangini far more technical and fast
yea yea yea that's the shit!! :DDDD Go Portnoy!!
Portnoy seemed really like the main pillar of this masterpiece. I hope one day he come back to the band.
well, he back my man
@@Detonated66 he really did bro 😭
"Yeah, yeah! That's the shit!" That's how the fucking write these songs. And I thought it was telepathy.
The tone on this album perfect. I F*&$%ing love this album.
I just love the process of them making music. JP figuring out the beginning to Honor Thy Father and MP figuring out how to play the drums to the riff. Just amazing for the type of music they make.
From what I remember hearing, the PRS was a gift from Mark Tremonti.
I have no idea if that's true, it's just what I have heard. *shrug*
mike the king
THEY WROTE THAT IN THREE WEEKS
This is sad, seeing John and Mike writing, probably something that will never happen again
good news, they did it again
Wrong budddy
New Liquid Tension Experiment album coming, probably next year.
Wrong
The best thing to be wrong about
JFC every comment is I MISS PORNTOY... ITS BEEN LIKE 12 YEARS MOVE ON FFS
By far their best album.
And all this in over 3 weeks! WOW
Nah Metropolis pt 2, images and words and six degrees are above this one
The worst one with Portnoy
@@dajecm That's between When Dream and Day United, Falling Into Infinity or the first half of Octavarium.
@@mr.lysergic3240 six degrees is a horrible album, only one good song that is overrated
it will be easier if MP and JP are in your band
7:00 I do not miss THAT in Dream Theater.
Good news: Dt just announced the return of Mike Portnoy
6:58 ahahahah
I really miss Portnoy being in his band with his brothers
I hope they play together again someday
how you feeling now with them reuniting?
now wait a minute..Jordan Rudess with short dark hair?
I must admit I did not think DT would be so diff. without Portnoy. But in only 3 albums they have wandered so far away... I stand corrected, they should have taken the break he needed and come back stronger. At the very least, hindsight being 20/20, they should have gone with Marcus as their new drummer...
They actually chose Marcus, but he didn't want to commit 100% of his time to Dream Theater
You mean Marco right?
yeah yeaah,, that's the shit ! hahaha love mike
20 years already. cant believe it. thanks for sharing.
Short haired budokan Petrucci was peak 🔥
John Petrucci with a Les Paul style guitar... what is that, a PRS?
The third-best album.. Images and words, awake and train.
yes, you are right.The young Petrucci was looking good.Now,he is also losing his hair but one thing remains the same that's his talent-Inger,india
Dont cross the crooked step (insert nasty breakdown here)
Best album they have ever made, so many killer riffs!
Im starting to think John Myung cant talk lol
This video as a kid destroyed me. I, like wtf, how can you go from here n there. They are talented, wish I had ppl around me that would just jam n try.
6:55 That is comedy gold
2:53 I remember that part of song weird they did right on the spot. Its a cool rhythmic displacement
its a prs,which is basically an overpriced les paul,which is basically an overpriced piece of uncomfortable hunk
Is Petrucci playing a PRS there for a sec?
So you're telling me they made the Unison in In the name of god in under 3 weeks. Let alone probably only 1-2 days total. I can't even do the first measure in that unison and I'm not even the one who invented it. Fuck Dream Theater they are too good.
"yeah yeah yeah! that's the shit!" hahahaha :)) love that line :))
Watching this brings back memories of writing with bandmates in numerous bands. Now I do all this by myself in my home studio lol
Is this documentary on any of their DVDs?
Petrucci on a les paul? I've never seen anything besides the Ibanes or musicman. Just interesting. Good to see that he mixes it up a bit at least.
Don't tell the fucking fans hahaha
hahaha "yea yea, thas the shit!"
amazing how these guys write. i wish i could watch them all the day
6:55 the original name of Stream of Consciousness
LMAO 😂
Ohhh they're fuckin'.... they didn't spend enough time on it
Ohhhh honor thy father
I just saw Petrucci play a PRS
Mind blown
The REAL *DREAM THEATER*
Wow 3 weeks
It’s funny watching the moment that Petrucci came up with one of my favorite riffs
Who the hell come up with that stupid idea of Jewish solo on In The Name Of God? :D
2 month for Portnoy's part album number 16 to come 2024 ....so long enought!!!
Maybe because you don't know what a guitar is? A guitar is an instrument, not music. Oh and btw, Alex Lifeson used Gibson LesPauls BEFORE Rush and still does. Man, you don't have any idea what you're talking about.
"thats the shit, do it like that" xD jajaja mighty
Los amo. Gracias por tanta dedicacion para escuchar tan buena musica. Dream theater mi banda favorita por siempre.
i hope MP back to DT
@MlKEPORNTOY dude your on every vid that has anything to do with dt... you need to chill hahah get a girlfriend or something
3 weeks for their best(opinion) album?
im a failure as a musician haha
why is there an all-seeing eye. i hope they are no satan worshippers and can spend eternity with Lord Yeshua
2:20 only thing I wanna do with my GF.
The amount of toxic Portnoy fanboys in the comments is disgusting
Special of mike p.. Is idea for the album..
How an people just walk outside and not hearing fucking Dream Theater playing???
5:16 John Petrucci playing a PRS Tremonti model
No like sound live not by mixing input mixer.
honor thy father really kicks my head
Dude, I started fucking crying when I heard that for the first time.
3:44 - love this interplay just here between MP and JP!
It looks like a video from the 80s not 2003
Did anyone notice that there is not James Labrie in this video?
6:26 IS JOHN REALLY PLAYING A PRS???!!!
John Petrucci =Toni Stark
1:55 effortless...literally
Indeed
He's still kickass though, no matter what he wears
7:24 they started writing on Mario Day
7:14 aaaagghh!! :) (it was rudess sure)
@skifarterufa He is recording or playing basketball.
No he looks awesome!
God, Portnoy looks terrible with those glasses...
@Scalismas656 Not short dark hair... ACTUAL hair!
LET'S GET ROAAAAAAAAAAIIIGHT
INTO THE NEEEEEEWS
gênios
Petrucci looks big these days, what is he eating or drinking? He used to be so skinny and had that rock guitarist look to him. Also I miss his Picasso style Ibanez guitars or whatever they were. The look mint.
