DREAM THEATER WORKING ON THEIR 10TH STUDIO ALBUM! Prog Metal veterans Dream Theater are currently wrapping up work on their tenth studio album. The band commenced work on the as-yet untitled album –their second for Roadrunner Records, following up 2007's Systematic Chaos—in October of last year.
Drummer Mike Portnoy and guitarist John Petrucci are once again producing the CD, while engineer Paul Northfield will mix the record. Roadrunner plans to release the album in early summer upon which the band will immediately embark on a world tour to support it.
like them or not, these guys don't stop working ever
Pain of Salvation is the band that Dream Theater should have become, but couldn't because Kevin Moore was the only one creative enough to get them there.

After Scenes From a Memory II, they really seemed to lose a step for me. Six Degrees was hit and miss, and I think the entire second disk was yuck. After that, nothing they have done has really inspired me.

It's too bad, b/c I love I&W, Awake and SFAM II.
their last records have definitely been hit or miss. the second disc of 6 degrees is awesome, but i only listen to it when i have the full 45+ minutes. it won't do to listen to portions of it.
there's still 2-3 really good songs on each though.

So what I'm pretty sure this album won't suck. I'm willing to bet the instrumental disc gets better reviews/ratings than the one with James singing though. Most people seem to hate him for some reason.
