"Train of Thought" is butchered as we expected, with the horrendous "As I Am" and the Not a RADIO EDIT that no radio has ever aired anyway. Your band isn't mainstream, please include what the fans love, so that newbies can have a better What "radio" are we talking about? Again, if They include the "radio edit" of "Solitary Shell". Glass Prison" (which I don't like at all, but most fans love) and prefer the good "Misunderstood" and theįorgettable "Disappear." And again, they cut the only really great part of that album, the title-track, and "6 Degrees of Inner Turbulence" receives the usual treatment. Moments of an album that doesn't have many weak moments so it isn't so big an achievement. "Scenes from a Memory" should never be cut. Kitchen-Lines in the sand"? Terrible picks (these are not bad songs per se, the're just awful as selections for a "Peruvian Skies" is good and "Hollow years" is very pretty,īut really, for a true taste of DT, where are "Trial of Tears", or the amazing combo "Hell's "Falling into Infinity" has no better luck. They could've gone with the great "Scarred" instead. If they wanted to spotlight less-known tracks, More, "Erotomania" and "Voices"? Bad selection. From "Awake" they chose "Lie", which had a video but it's not the best track in the album, theyĬhose "Silent Man" and "Lifting Shadows off a Dream". But I just can't forgive that "Metropolis" ("Pull me Under") which makes the title of this album coherent they chose a great song like "Take the From one of their masterpieces, "Images and Words", they chose, well, their only actual " hit" It's awful that there s not ONE song from the And they couldn't even have argued that they didn't want anyĭominici-sung track in the compilation, as that one is an instrumental. Label issuesĪside, I'm sure it could be done. First off, where is "Ytse Jam"? If there's a song that had to be here is that one. (something that, curiously, would have added at least something of interest to SHADOW GALLERY'sĬompilation, at least for the songs coming from the poorly-recorded "Shadow Gallery"). Original albums were all pretty well-produced in the first place so there's really no need for new mixes Listen to the hi-hat one decibel higher than in the album, rush ahead and go buy this collection. Well, if you really crave for that new mix where you can Ok, I forgot: we get a couple of remixes here. So, as I've heard all of theseīefore, I think I can comment, as I did with SHADOW GALLERY's "Prime Cuts" a while ago, in the And this compilationĭoesn't add ONE SONG to my catalogue ("To Live Forever"? Please.). Their cover versions, I think it's enough for me to have only all of their albums. Other than to presume of a perfect collection. There's absolutely NO reason for a fan who has all the albums to have this If I haven't bought or even heard the album, it's because Well, the two points are actually connected. How can I even rate this album if I haven't heard it and haven't even bought it?
How can I, someone who has declared DT his favorite band in all prog-metal, be giving this Greatest Hits compilationĪ bad rating? A collection of DT's should be every fan's dream, shouldn't it?
