Remember that this is a forum filled with metalheads and "The Shaman's Trance" is a good metal song title

Indeed!

Umm.... Did anyone else see this yet?

The songs good, not amazing, but damn I'm digging that guitar solo!

Alberto7 · 06-11-2011, 02:28 PM

... Well, I'd like this song if it was by another band. But this isn't the Dream Theater that I'm so eagerly awaiting to come back (and the one that I still have my hopes up for). And what is up with that artwork? It looks like they just blended both the artworks from "A Change of Seasons" and "Train of Thought". I really hope the rest of the album isn't like this.

Also, that's one hell of an EARLY leak.

EDIT: Either what I said, or I'm just expecting something very non-Dream-Theater-y...

... This song didn't do it for me, though.

AMAZING!!!! Can't wait for the album!!!!

Nazca · 06-11-2011, 02:36 PM

Errr....that song is from JLB's album Elements of Persuasion in 2005. The song is called "Slightly out of Reach". And Marco Sfogli played guitar on that album.

It's a wicked album, by the way!

Of course you're digging the solo, it's Marco Sfogli playing it

This is not a DT song, it's Slightly Out Of Reach by James' Elements of Persuasion

Now I recognize I'm an idiot. *Goes and starts swallowing all of JLB's solo albums*

Damn!!! I am on that list too!! I knew it was too early!!!

Xiphos68 · 06-11-2011, 02:46 PM

Very happy that's it not Dream Theater.

Ralyks · 06-11-2011, 02:50 PM

What's embarassing is, I've had Elements of Persuasion since it came out

I must have spent too much time with Crucified, Alone, and Drained, as those are the only tracks I still listen to from that album.

Kurkkuviipale · 06-11-2011, 03:08 PM

Yea, the album's in a mixing phase so you're not going to hear any (even leaked) songs in near future.

yidcorer · 06-12-2011, 08:45 AM

DT dissapointed me when they started to make a mediatic show out of Portnoy´s departure. It became annoying to hear the words "Dream theater" alone, because people could only talk about one thing.

I for one welcome Mangini, but I won´t buy the next album. I am sure it will suck.

That Portnoy and Petrucci were the soul of DT.

zakattak192 · 06-12-2011, 10:39 AM

Oh hey, It's the Shaman's Trance...

Or is it? Same uploader. But idk what song it is.

If "soul" involved rapping and bad lyrics (like in hip hop) then you are correct.

Can't wait for the new album!

Animate-Inanimate from the Suspended Animation album (Petrucci solo record)

Stop posting those videos. They're fake.

Comments by approval only, ratings disabled, etc..., and it's all Labrie's (and Pettricci's) solo stuff. As it's been said, they're still mixing the album. Leaks happen after the albums are sent to press people for reviews usually. It is WAY TOO EARLY to be hearing leaked material.

Meanwhile you're helping this dimwit get views and hits on his youtube page. Instead, everyone should flag it as "misleading text".

Portnoy=a change of seasons=/discussion.

Yeah, he may have "hopped" in one song or two, so what? He sucks at it, but at least he´s open minded.

I wasn't really looking to argue, just being funny.

We clearly disagree, and I don't have any more chance of changing your mind than you do of changing mine. I think every member of DT was capable of bringing an equal amount of GOOD and AWFUL to the band. MP brought a lot of both, in my opinion. Mangini brings the hope that maybe he can bring more good, and less awful. Or not. I just find it assumptive to declare the new album will suck before we even hear it.

Change of Seasons, for the record, doesn't end discussions for me. I've always liked the earliest stuff the best. But I still give every album a chance, and don't dismiss them before they even finish recording it.

ddtonfire · 06-12-2011, 11:28 AM

You guys are way too negative.

3) Fruit give me the runs.

There's always so many right answers. This>That is never a good way to get into a conversation.
