    DREAM THEATER... SIMPLY THE GREATEST GROUP OF ALL TIME! MOST MUSIC THESE DAYS MAY LAST A MONTH OR TWO AND THEN IT'S CONSIDERED 'OLD'. DREAM THEATERNEVER GETS OLD OR OUTDATED, THEIR MUSIC SIMPLY GETS BETTER EACH TIME YOU LISTEN TO IT. YOU BEGIN TO HEAR DIFFERENT RIFS AND RUNS AND YOU BEGIN TO GET TRUELY INSPIRED BY THEIR TALENT. IN TIME YOU WILL SEE JUST HOW MUCH POP STARS REALLY DON'T HAVE MUCH OF ANYTHING.

    DREAM THEATER HAS BEEN QUOTED TO SAYING THAT THEY WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE MUSIC UNTIL THEY CAN'T COME UP WITH ANYTHING NEW AND THIER MUSIC BEGINS TO REPEAT. PERSONALLY I DON'T BELEIVE THIS COULD EVER HAPPEN. LISTEN TOSCENES FROM A MEMORY IN IT'S ENTIRETY AND YOU WILL FIND NOT A SINGLE SONG IS THE SAME. THE STYLE OF MUSIC CHANGES EACH TIME.

    THERE IS NOT MUCH MORE I CAN SAY ABOUT THEM UNTIL YOU LISTEN TO THEIR MUSIC YOU WILL NOT TRUELY BE AWED BY THEIR POWER. THE FACT THAT THE GREATEST INTRUMENTALIST AND SINGER OF ALL TIME ALL CAME TOGETHER TO CREATE ONE SUPER BAND IS BEYOND ME, BUT THE FACT THEY DID WE CAN JUST THANK GOD.

      THERELEASE OF THE NEW DREAM THEATER ALBUM TITLED LIVE SCENES FROM NEW YORK HAD TO BE RECALLED. IT WAS SLATED TO COME OUT THE 11th THE DAY OF THE TRAGIC DIASTERS IN NEW YORK AND WASHINGTON D.C. THE COVER WAS SIMILAR TO THAT OF LIVE AT THE MARQUEE EXECT INSTEAD OF A FLAMING HEART IT WAS A FLAMING APPLE WITH A SILOETTE OF THE CITY INSIDE THE FLAMES. SOME OF THE BUILDINGS INCLUDED THE TWIN TOWERS. THE ALBUM WAS RECALLED IMMIDIATELY AFTER THE TERRORIST ATTACK AND ONLY THOSE WHO PRE-ORDERED THEM WILL BE RECEIVING THIER COPY OF THE C.D. THE CD IS NOW A COLLECTORS ALBUM AND CAN BE ORDERED OFF OF E-BAY FOR AROUND $80. THE CD WILL BE COMING OUT AGAIN SOON JUST WITH A DIFFERENT ALBUM COVER WHICH INCLUDES INCLUDES THE DREAM THEATER LOGO.

    ALSO DREAM THEATER  IS CURRENTLY WORKING ON A DOUBLE STUDIO ALBUM DUE OUT SOMETIME NEXT YEAR... CAN'T WAIT. AND OF COURSE THEY SAY IT'S A TOTALLY NEW SOUND JUST LIKE ALL THEIR OTHER MUSIC!

    REMEMBER DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT DREAM THEATER'S GREAT SITE WHERE MOST OF THIS INFORMATION CAME FROM... www.dreamtheater.net

    I FINISHED ALL OF THE BIOS AND ADDED A PIC OF WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE NEW DREAM THEATER ALBUM.

SYMPHONY X BEGAN IN THE JUST THE PAST FEW YEARS LIKE DREAM THEATER . UNFORTIONATELY THEY ARE NOT ONE OF THE MOST WELL KNOWN GROUPS OF OUR TIME ALTHOUGH THEY SHOULD BE. THEY ALWAYS HAVE INTRICATE PARTS WHICH THEY PLAY WITH MORE ADDRENALINE THAN ANY OTHER GROUP I HAVE EVER HEARD BEFORE. THEY HAVE A STYLE SIMILAR TO THAT OF DREAM THEATER  WHICH IS EVENDENT AFTER LISTENING TO THIER MUSIC FOR JUST A FEW MINUTES.

I FIND THIER MUSIC VERY FUN TO LISTEN TO, THEIR LATEST CD AND THIER BEST, V, EVEN STARTS OFF WITH SORT OF A CELTIC THEME. THE CELTIC THEME LEADS DIRECTLY INTO THE 2ND SONG EVOLUTION WHICH BEGINS THE SETTING FOR A GREAT STORY, WHICH ALL OF THIER CD'S ARE.

LIKE I SAID THEY PUT A LOT OF ENERGY INTO THIER MUSIC WITH HARDLY A SOFTER PART WITH A LOT OF DRUMS. THEIR VOCALIST RUSSEL ALLEN ALSO HELPS ADD TO THE EXCITIMENT WITH GREAT VOCALS AT A HIGH VOLUME. THIER VOLUME WAS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS I FELT IN THIER MUSIC AND THIER SMASHING DRUMS WHICH ADD A GREAT BEAT. YOU CAN HEAR THIS IN THE 2ND TRACK OF V.
ANOTHER THING YOU WILL NOTICE ABOUT THIER MUSIC IS THIER ALBUM COVERS VERY LOUD AND FULL OF LIFE SYMBOLS OF THIER BAND. THE ARTWORK ON THEM IS PHYNOMINAL AND ALSO HELPS PAINT THE PICTURE ABOUT WHAT THE CD IS ABOUT. THEY HAVE SOME OF THE BEST ALBUM ART I HAVE EVER SEEN.

ALTHOUGH THEY STILL DON'T COMPARE TO DREAM THEATER THEY ARE STILL THE 2ND GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME AND MORE PEOPLE REALLY SHOULD LISTEN AND LEARN TO LOVE THEM LIKE I HAVE.

THE NEW SYMPHONY X LIVE CD SCHEDULED TO BE COMING OUT IN EARLY OCTOBER HAS A CONFIRMED TITLE AND TRACK LIST THE CD WILL BE CALLED SYMPHONY X: LIVE ON THE EDGE OF FOREVER. I WILL BE MAKING THE TRACK LISTING IN JUST A LITTLE.
