I've been consuming this new album for the past 24 hours or so. I've been listening to mp3 versions through my computer speakers, with headphones. I've been listening to the lossless downloads on various playback devices at home, in car, etc. Right now, have the 5.1 DVD Audio version playing on the home theater system. Of course, by far the best has been the DVD-Audio version, which sounds incredible! Haven't listened to the CD yet, which I can't imagine will be much different from my Apple Lossless conversion of the FLAC downloads. One day, I'll have to put on the CD and try the LPs.
I'm loving this album so far. I think it's their most "complete" work for quite some time. I think they did a great job advancing their art--whether it's lyrics, melodies, just doing their thing instrumentally, whatever. I think they all brought "it" in a big way on this album. I don't think I have been this excited about a Dream Theater since "Scenes From A Memory" or "Train of Thought." Great job, DT!
