 ... equivalent of Octavarium's "The Answer Lies Within". "Constant Motion" and "The Dark Eternal Night" form a tight, heavy metal pair of tracks. The latter is one of the most monstrously heavy tracks I've ever heard from Dream Theater - from the opening riff you know you'd better prepare for a fully charged musical war! Repetence, a 10 minute ballad, is excessively long in my opinion. Lyrically it's one of the stronger tracks, but the voice over section in the middle feels a little embarras...more

Premium Review Systematic Chaos - Dream Theater: Method to the Madness? (350 words)

Systematic Chaos, Dream Theater's 9th studio release covers, yet again, a vast spectrum of musical ideas. As an ardent Dream Theater fan, I really wanted to enjoy this album as much as possible. There are some excellent moments in this record. The opening track "In The Presence of Enemies: Part 1" for example is absolutely excellent - melodic, dynamic, full of energy and leaving the listener eager for part 2. "Forsaken", to me, feels a little too cheesey and predictable - there's not really any new ground covered hear. It's the Systematic Chaos equivalent of Octavarium's "The Answer Lies Within". "Constant Motion" and ...

With their most recent album, Dream Theater seem to be taking stock of their career thus far and presenting something of a self-tribute, but one that still continues to move forwards, even if still essentially means blatantly stealing ideas from other bands. Bookended by the slow, grand, keyboard-dominated 'In the Presence of Enemies,' the progressive rock vibe is clear from the onset, and the album benefits from prog's recent resurgence in popularity thanks to bands such as Porcupine Tree, whose style is flagrantly stolen for the tedious fourth instalment of Mike Portnoy's Alcoholics Anonymous epic, 'Repentance.' 'Forsaken' is a strong vocal-centric song that ...

Premium Review Systematic Chaos - Dream Theater: Systematically Brilliant (1025 words)

Fear not, audiophiles, for proper music has returned to save you from the horror of manufactured pop! For die-hard Prog-Metal fans, the latest release from Dream Theater, their 9th (and a half if you count A Change Of Seasons), sees the Instrumentally gifted Quintet back to their no nonsense best. Whilst the last album, Octavarium was more mellow in places and a bit samey in others, perhaps just a modern retake of the commercialised 1997 release Falling Into Infinity, Systematic Chaos is pretty much all hard driving, mixed meter wizardry. At 75+ minutes, this is another epic album, and with only 8 tracks, you can expect plenty of ...

 

Products similar to Systematic Chaos - Dream Theat...

One of the greatest metal albums of all time, lots of classics, a cohesive album, good lyrics, music and production A bit hard to swallow at first for some people, some of the guitar solos sound cheesey - but were probably still cool then, and are still exciting

Some good old tunes... Some naff dated ones...

Great vocals and guitars, when used effectively. Over-repetitive and lacking in intensity.

Heavy Metal - 1995

Title track is excellent, as is most of the album. good symphony work to.. A few diversions such as 'I Walk Beside You' are a little disappointing.

Talented and dynamic cello metal. You do tend to wish there was a real guitar in there somewhere.

The Crusher - Amon Amarth
More of the same from Amon Amarth. More of the same from Amon Amarth.

Opel - Syd Barrett
Probably the most comprehensive collection of rare material. Still a lot of overlap in the form of alternate takes, which tend to be inferior.

Once Sent From The Golden Hall - Amon Amarth
Accessible and distinctive melodic death metal. Longer songs tend towards repetition.

Market Harbour - Ginger
Broad range of styles, something for everyone If you're expecting big riffs you'll go away crying

Hustlenomics - Yung Joc
When he's good, he's amazing Block. Not consistant.

How The West Was Won: Live - Led Zeppelin
Classic Rock - 2003

Fate Of Norns - Amon Amarth
Reasonably epic. Dull and lacking in energy.

Anthems Of Rebellion - Arch Enemy
Angrier and more powerful direction, losing the rubbish TV game show guitars. Stands out less as a result.

And Four More Ways To Fight - Multi Purpose Chemical
Brilliant, original, varied album! None really, I guess it's a fairly short album though.

A Long March - As I Lay Dying
Previously rare material made available. It's unrefined, unimpressive metalcore.
