Mike Portnoy (ex Dream Theater drummer) put out a CZcams video where he counts time signature changes in this song. It is also reported that there are over 100 time signature changes in this song. 🤯🤯🤯
108 to be exact
This song is part of a larger
body of work, you must listen to
the whole album to truly appreciate
the depths that they have descended
to create the composition.
I read this in william shatners voice. Thank you for the entertainment.
You can watch live Dream Theater performance. Even they are better when they are live.
Do all the Dream Theater. Plenty of material.
My suggestion is Octavarium song
“Mike Portnoy is pretty impressive on the drums” 😂😂 maybe biggest understatement ever? Lol liking the channel and loving the Dream Theater reviews. Keep ‘em coming
Helo!
I like your content, thank you!
You should react on:
1. Dream Theater - Octavatium - Live From Boston Opera House
2. Dream Theater - Breaking All illusions - Live From Boston Opera House
3. Riverside - Second Life Sindrome - Live - Reality Dream DVD (Closest to your musical taste... I think)
4. Opeth - Ghost Of Perdition - Live At Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
You whant regret, belive me!!! Realy great modern prog songs in all its glory :)
This video clips have great production and it is beater than studio versions. Best musicship among band members. You must react on them!
I look forward to your next video!
Nice association to Pollock's painting😄 not everyone understands it but when you do it you can see the genius in it. Subscribed and waiting for more Dream theater, Tool and Porcupine Tree 🤘Cheers
Probably the most musically complex song in the world
Nice shirt 🖤💙
Next reaction Liquid Tension experiment: When the water breaks (live)? Drum, keyboard and Guitar from DT + Tony Levin (King Crimson) on bass
Wonderful DT piece, but Wonderful Inter Milan shirt 🖤💙
I rarely subscribe to You Tube channels these days, as it can quickly add up to more than I have time for, but I just subscribed here, and as a long time prog fan myself, I'm happy to do so!
You gotta do this whole album and this was a great taste of one of the greatest Prog albums of the past 30 years!!
It's a direct sequel to Metropolis Pt. 1 and thus uses familiar elements but also quite a few new textures ranging from Gospel to Avant-garde to R&B to Pop to Electronic and so on!
Metropolis Pt. 2 is much more the type of Classic 70s Prog Rock concept album with a whole Rock Opera narrative and variations in styles and inlfuences!
As you can guess they are heavily influenced by Rush, Dixie dregs,Yes, etc. The band is known for their time signature changes. Some releases are harder than others.. they just won their first Grammy this year after 30 something years in the business for The Alien off their latest release. Give it a listen. They are all standout musicians especially my favorite guitarist John Petrucci as you will find out the more to listen to them.
Grammies are meaningless nowadays they hand them out to artists who aren't even musicians. Programming sounds on a computer doesn't make you a musician. If grammies were truely awarded to the greatest musicians, DT would already have loads of awards.
@@Heatwave9000 I agree with your Grammy opinion .. I’ve been a DT fan since 92. They have more talent on their pinkies than these idiots who they pass those little statues out to every year. That’s why its so amazing that they finally got recognized …
great music !!!!
forza inter !!!!
Also, in the heavier realm of prog you have the band Symphony X from New Jersey. They are an incredible band with an amazing lead singer, Russell Allen.
They're more power metal than a prog band.
Home from the same album, Home... all I had to say 😁
if you haven't yet, check out The Alien which they won a grammy for. It's also off their last album so you can hear how this progressive band has progressed even more.. :) This song is way more entertaining live.. There's some great live dvd concerts by these guys.
Moreeeeeee.
Try Opeth "Ghost of Perdition" or "Harlequin Forest" or "Deliverance" or "Fait in others"... or all of them :D
Also check out "Pain of Salvation", maybe start with their song "The Perfect Element" or "King of Loss"
I will definitely be doing more Opeth. I really enjoyed the one song I've done so far. Thank you for stopping by.
I second all that. Pain of Salvation mostly 😉
That's great! You should listen to some Haken too, songs like Crystallised or Celestial Elixir, you'll love them for sure.
Great jersey by the way 🖤💙
Thanks! I've done a Haken track...check the channel...and I'll do more eventually.
As for the jersey, Inter are my Italian side. Thanks for stopping by!
A modern prog band I'd recommend is black midi. Perhaps listen to Sugar Tzu or John L.
You've covered two of their wildest songs, as far as time changes and technicality goes. This one is actually sort of a sequel to the first song you listened to, the whoel album is actually. You can hear a few themes here that return form that song. A few suggestions that cover a broader range of their sound:
The Glass Prison, Our New World, The Best of Times, Trial of Tears, Innocence Faded, Sacrificed Sons. Just pulling some off the top of my head, these only scratch the surface of course.
react to whole images and words
Some sections of this track are a direct reference to Metropolis pt 1 you reacted before.
Inter jersey 🎉
If you really want to get a musical grasp of what they are doing and and how difficult it is, you can check out other reaction videos from "The Daily Doug" He is a orchestral composer and really understands music theory and describes it very well.
Can't wait for you to hear Mike Portnoy's playing on All Of The Above by Transatlantic and Blue Ocean by Flying Colors. Different sides of his great musicality.
Check out some Between The Buried and Me. White walls or Disease Injury Madness are good starters
Fantastic job my friend. I suggest doing Dream Theater “Instrumedley”. It’s all instrumental and if you do the first “Instrumedley” with Mike Portnoy it’s double time-size than Mike Mangini. Don’t get me wrong ❤️ Mangini. You don’t regret it my friend
If you listen closely you'll hear sections of Metropolis Part 1 played backwards at the beginning of this song
Another band that you might consider is Fates Warning. They're a lot more tame than Dream Theater, but they were extremely influential on DT. They put out their first album in the mid 80's and recently released their final album a couple of years ago. A few songs that might be a good starting point would be From the Rooftops, And Yet it Moves, A Handful of Doubt, The Eleventh Hour and Nothing Left to Say.
The live version is so much better IMO.
"Welcome to modern Prog"
*Listens to a Song from 1999*
Starts at 1990, so yes. Thanks for stopping by.
This Dt’s album, Scenes From A Memory is a long epic song, 78 minutes long. Extracting a part like this, not sure it is the best way to fully appreciate the album or even a part of it, cause you may lose some of the sense of the album..
If you're looking for other bands with a similar sound to this, check out the song "Biosfear" by Circus Maximus.
They aren't always this technical btw you just happened to cover two of their most technical songs. Songs like Dance of Eternity need multiple listens to understand but it definitly grows on you. They have more heavier songs, great ballads aswell as prog epics on each album.
Please do not wear this shirt again 🙈🙈🙈
Lol, sorry friend. That's my Serie A side. Thanks for stopping by!
oh hi i don't know that you are a fellow inter milan fan. nice!
