I've never had much luck with double concept albums and this is no different. This is DREAM THEATER's sixth studio album released in 2002. The first disc is a solid 4 stars with "The Glass Prison" being the standout track. And i would put this disc up against both "Awake" and "Images And Words", but it's the second disc with the 42 minute suite that drops the rating for me. Just too much orchestration and balladry overall to do a lot for me. And i must admit i'm probably being too sensitive to anything this band does that is remotely close to being ballad-like but it is a complete turn-off for me when they drift into that territory. So i can see myself spinning disc one down the road but to be honest disc two will have to stay in it's holster thankyou.
