I'm listening to Beatles now. wow it's 10^23 times better

Axver · 01-30-2016, 04:19 AM

Oh my god we're finally up to Act 2.

And here's Rudess with his circus music!

IWasBored · 01-30-2016, 04:19 AM

this would be bad enough with different people singing each of the characters. the multi character songs (or at least that's what i'm assuming they are, maybe they're just bad singing) are the most ridiculous thing.

Mack_Again · 01-30-2016, 04:20 AM

but didn't Bono sing in character (kinda) during recording of NLOTH?

To be fair, EVERY line is a bad line. I'm really not sure how this could suck any more lyrically. This is the ultimate.

"As a symbolic gesture of peace, Faythe agrees to sing together along with Gabriel so that when her father hears the purity and innocence of love and unity in their combined voices, the fate of their future will be sealed."

Dirty, dirty hippies.

Have you listened to Ayreon?

He writes the most ASTONISHING overblown prog albums and gets different singers for each character. I'm not even joking. They're meant to be this who's who of prog and metal and they're the cheesiest things ever. Or were, until this album came along.

Axver · 01-30-2016, 04:22 AM

For the record, Act 1 = 2.5 stubbies.

How much will Act 2 drive me to drink?

Axver · 01-30-2016, 04:22 AM

BRACE YOURSELF MY BRUTHA!!!!

We've been braced since this shitfest began, guys.

That's...still a bit creepy somehow.

i did not know that was a thing.

"An instrumental which recaps the musical themes used thus far. It is meant to reacquaint the listener with the music and set the mood for Act 2."

Oh, this is fucking rich.

Evidently, after 75 minutes of exposition onslaught, we had forgotten the rock solid tunes they had provided for us early on. Thanks for thinking of us, Dream Theater.

Mack_Again · 01-30-2016, 04:23 AM

Now John Petrucci is offering a guitar course thru string company Ernie Ball (string company) and you have to win competition (basically play riffs from this fucking album to win) to get the lesson. i cant stop laughing about this fucking garbage.

I was vaguely impressed by it when I was 17 because his albums would have three or four of my favourite musicians together. Problem was that they were shit. And had terrible concepts. LIKE THIS ALBUM.

Could somebody, nefarious or otherwise, please knock off Gabriel?

i hope nefarious knocks off everyone somewhere soon so we can just have hilariously bad disney villain songs for the remainder of the album.
