4 out of 5 stars Uneven and inconsistent, but still Dream Theater.......2007-06-29

Dream Theater's 1997 release Falling into Infinity remains to this day the band's most harshly criticized album (though for reasons I'll never understand, a lot of people seem to hate 2003's Train of Thought). The reason for this album's failings can be summed up in two words: Desmond Child. I'm not knocking him specifically (OK, maybe a little), but his "hitmaking" ilk had no business working with a band like Dream Theater in the first place. By all accounts the band was desperate for another Pull Me Under moment that would reach a wide audience, so they allowed outside songwriters and producers to tinker with the formula that made Dream Theater a great band in the first place. The result was Dream Theater's most inconsistent album, and one that disappointed a lot of fans.

I sometimes look at albums in terms of the good, the bad, and the ugly, but this is Dream Theater we're talking about, so I'll revise my criteria a bit.

The Good - Despite the most un-prog use of the word "baby", album opener New Millennium is actually a pretty good song. Peruvian Skies is also quite good, and reminiscent of something you'd find on Awake. The instrumental Hell's Kitchen and the ballad Hollow Years are also good songs. The James LaBrie-penned ballad Anna Lee is quite nice, though a bit out of character for the band. I get the feeling the band blamed LaBrie for this album's shortcomings, as it would take a full decade before they let him anywhere near the songwriting process again.

Very good cd...played by amazing musicians, very heavy sometimes, quite soft and commercial on some songs but overall, a very good album to listen to.

4 out of 5 stars Where they started to lose me.......2007-04-18

Don't get me wrong. I really like Dream Theater. But I used to LOVE them. I LOVED them when I first heard "Images and Words" and still loved them when they released "Awake". But this album seems to be when they started to really buy their own press and position as the premier progressive metal band on the scene and be more "prog" than "metal".

4 out of 5 stars I hate doing this but this is really more like 3.5.......2007-04-10

Boy, you people aren't wrong when you say that Dream Theater went a bit commercial on this one because boy did they. I, within the last year or so have really become quite the Dream Theater fan and this was one of the last DT cds to get outside of the Change of Seasons ep and I have to say I was pretty dissapointed. Not that they have to be but I found that Dream Theater was a lot less heavy on this CD outside of the final track and a couple others in between. Thing is, Dream Theater has always been one of the bands that wouldn't give in to the demand of industry standards, etc. because they just want to make good, solid music but they disobeyed themselves with this. Not that they can't do good short songs because they can, it's just a lot of songs on here don't feel like Dream Theater songs. Another thing I feel is that the CD could've cut a couple of the tracks. The early parts to the middle of the CD really has quite a bit of filler; however, I do find that the CD picks up near the end.

Anyways, I'm sort of rambling now so I'm going to end it. Basically in a nutshell, this is still Dream Theater so I can't say it's a bad cd but don't expect the usual high par musicianship you generally will get with Dream Theater. This is their weakest effort by far.
