Todem Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) SWEEEEET. Going to the St Petersburg show and taking my soon to be 14 year old son. He has never sen them live (he is a huge DT fan) and Scenes From A memory pt2 is his favorite album (as well as mine!). Got tickets in the Loge section so he can see over every ones heads. LOL. It will be an epic show!!! Edited November 9, 2018 by Todem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todem Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I wonder how much they will play from Scenes From A Memory. Too many concerts for me next March. A drive to Dallas may have to happen. THE WHOLE f***ing THING!!! Make this a 2 set "evening with" show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Great convo on this thread Bathory I wish i were younger as I think a bunch of the music you talk about would be right up my alley as a younger man. I still listen to the occasional Megadeth or Metallica and Im a big fan of Mastadon (as is my 8 year old). I can still get down with some Fates and am looking forward to the new DTbut they arent as much a favorite as a band that I do remotely follow. Im more a prog guy who still listens to Maiden on the regular so I can appreciate what they (DT). do as an older metal fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I like the album cover a lot. Classy, even elegant, but with a really intriguing juxtaposition and an in exact idea Of Symmetry. It looks like the robot is reciting Hamlet! Sample sounds good, nothing mindblowing, but solid DT riffage. Also like the title, which could be simplified as either Speed or Velocity. You know I love you my young friend but this album cover is pure cheese. Not class at all. It's so cliche and sooooooooooooooooooo stupid. Is this the new Disneyland Soundtrack for the new Star Wars Park opening up next year??? LOL!!!! At least the clip sounds more like progressive rock unlike that last album of stinky poop. I'm still a whore too and I will buy the album. Is that album cover showing a homage of a Stormtrooper holding the skull of Uncle Owen? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I hope for a very good album Earl, I can't see this being The Astonishing 2 Also that album cover is pretty bad. It is so clean and lacks any real sense of imagination or nuance.

Hugh Syme has been pretty much hit or miss for me since he went digital, but I think this one is a hit. Not on social media so I have no idea what goes on there . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean that's fine but this sort of image is neither original nor clever, and looks like your average sci-fi nonsense. It could be any book cover, or an industrial metal album cover...there is nothing at all special about this. But because it's Hugh Syme everyone will give it more credit than it actually deserves. I saw this album cover and honestly it surprised me it's an official cover for such a high profile band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why so much debate over the cover? There are plenty of great albums that have bad covers. At least it's not some lazy, uninspired photo of the band. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathory Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Great convo on this thread Bathory I wish i were younger as I think a bunch of the music you talk about would be right up my alley as a younger man. I still listen to the occasional Megadeth or Metallica and Im a big fan of Mastadon (as is my 8 year old). I can still get down with some Fates and am looking forward to the new DTbut they arent as much a favorite as a band that I do remotely follow. Im more a prog guy who still listens to Maiden on the regular so I can appreciate what they (DT). do as an older metal fan. it's possible you'd dig sacred blade, they're closer to maiden/early fates/early ryche than some of the other more thrashy bands I've mentioned voivod's run of nothingface, angel rat, and the outer limits is worth looking into - good production, heavy but not too abrasive, melodic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
