This isn't commercial... there are two songs 100% commercials but it is nothing compared to their previous album

I'm listening to the album right now. It's very good, not commercial at all... but I get the feeling that they could do better...

yeah i think so,but only like a bootleg recording of DREAM THEATER performing METALLICA's entire Master Of Puppets CD at a very special show.it was the second of DREAM THEATER's two-night stint at the venue.

Not Their Best Album But Still Good

It was - unfortunately - the first album I listened to from Dream Theater and I was very shocked that I haven't heard something from them before... I really like this album, but there are many songs from older albums that were better (for example Six Degress Of Inner Turbulence... great song!).

Did you realize that "The Root Of All Evil" of this album sounds like the refrain of "This Dying Soul" of Train Of Thougts?
By the way "Heal this dying soul" is a line from The Root Of All Evil...
Very confusing... (Both songs were written by Portnoy)

The last several albums have all been tied up with each other. They are mainly about Mike Portnoy struggle with alcohol addiction. They like to revisit ideas in later songs, sort of ties it up in a long story.
