No they won't. Not with LaBrie's voice in the shape it's in. The Xanadu cover they put out recently has a more natural drum sound and STILL sucks because of the nasal auto-tuned vocals.
Was just searching for recent DT shows to chek that Labrie still sounds like farts and found this. At 1:46 with the "he nailed 8 different voices" i thought "well, another fan blinded by love for the band who can't hear how the singer doesn't even sound like a professional singer anymore" but from 2:06 on i can't agree more.
I heard two songs off the album that sound exact the same. Does Mangini play at the same tempo throughout the entire album? Who knew all the testosterone flew out the window with Portnoy
"What has become of my favorite band Dream Theater". Indeed. Although Labrie never fit completely. Or Rudess. For what is expected from them (just grandeur) DT and Sons of Apollo suck. Why people think is great to just get together for 2 weeks to WRITE and record a new album? Sigh...
This is awesome :D Even though I love The Astonishing and I find it a masterpiece! And I listen to it even now on repeat, multiple times a week. What an art it is.
You're the first fan of the album I've encountered who has a sense of humor about it. The party line among Astonishing fans is basically "HOW DARE YOU CRITICIZE WHAT THE ALMIGHTY DT DID! YOU DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MUSICALS! YOU NEED TO STOP WHINING AND MOVE ON!"
@@theravenskillrebelmilitia139’m the only person i know who can laugh at it and still enjoy it. Like yeah it’s cheesy af but there are some incredible songs on it like Walking Shadow, Heaven’s Cove, Moment of Betrayal, etc. Then of course there are some I have to skip every time.
@@geneticsmatter3834 It's interesting how even some fans of TA acknowledge how completely redundant certain songs are. WTF were they thinking? "The more songs we can cram on here, the better" apparently.
You picked the wrong fucking sample!!! Act of Faythe had to be the weakest track on the album. Give us something like A New Beginning or Moment of Betrayal. Fuck's sake the overture was awesome!!! Granted it's no Metropolis but it's still pretty damn good!!
Matthew S There was just too much filler. That first song and Three Days are two of the best songs I've heard in the last 5 or so years, but a lot of those songs just don't belong on a dream theater album in my opinion.
Very true, the album got so much forgettable filler tracks and reoccurring themes that it all becomes a bland mess. Three Days is the only song from Astonishing I actually put on now and then. :D Oh, also rockin some Lord Nafaryus with the tango section sometimes.
Jamie Lange Until their new album Distance over Time. My god. Probably their best since Scenes from a Memory. IMO incredible all the way through with every song.
Wow that was hilarious... And I'm a huge DT fan But also I loved the Astonishing...not their best work...but I appreciate the musicality...and I always thought it had some kind of "Disney". Influence ...but with grit .IMO anyways...but that's just me 🤘💀🤘
This is the funniest thing I've ever seen. I'm not a crazy big fan of Dream Theater, but Images and Words is one of my favorite albums of all time. Sadly, I've listened to some of their newer stuff and I honestly don't like it as much. Labrie's voice was so perfect in Images and Words, and I feel like after a while it just declined massively.
There are a lot of these out there on social media. This is by far the funniest one I’ve seen. I actually like The Astonishing though. Some people seem to forget that Dream Theater is a theatrical Prog Rock band, so if they occasionally sound like a Disney musical, then that’s to be expected.
I for some reason never tried to listen to this album till like a week ago and I love it lol. Tbh if I never heard any Dream theater before this album, this is what I would totally expect after seeing the band name, ya know? Cuz it totally sounds like what the name looks like haha.
Yeah, now i see who you are. Wish i knew the whole thing about your channel and whatever the band did/said to you, maybe you recall my comments on many DT videos complaining about James' voice and i see there's been something going on about it. I only read the note from the "why i closed my channel" video and english not being my main language doesn't help either.. Anyway keep showing the true DT and once again thank you for all your work.
Yeah, I've seen your comments and I appreciate anyone who goes to the battlefield against Grandma LaBrie. I just put out an article which is a condensed version of my major problems with Dream Theater right now. Hopefully you'll be able to understand it despite the language barrier: mrdreamtheater2retirementmessage.blogspot.com/2018/03/the-tldr-version-of-my-articles-my-top_4.html
Omg thats pretty funny. The astonishing is my favorite album by them though lol. That album has a lot of meaning in the lyrics also. Not just ridiculously technical thus had more feeling to me. To each their own.
Ok... minus the religious jokes which I didn't care for, this was hilarious... And true.... Really what did happen to manginis drum sound. it's horrible.
"How did DT get worse with one less jew in the band? "
HAHAHAHA😂 fucking lost it man
At Is Portnoy Jewish? :○
DerTodesmeister him and rudess
I lost it when he said "Labrie is the Ulrich of metallica" hahaha
Brandon Roswell Ulrich of dream theater*
Josh White- Puller Of Strings yup totally noticed that, and it wouldn't let me edit it. Was kind of hoping no one would have noticed.
I lost it at sons of apollo
Ironically Sons of Apollo sounds like generic shit
@@melonskall If you think that, you haven't listened to their first album....
HAHAH, the 'music-player' sample was the best choice
This Dream Theater fan finds this hilarious and spot on! Hahahahaha
"I fantasize about dream theater fronted by Russel Allen"
woah, this hits home.
Savage Freeze this was my literal first thought when i first heard symphony x
As a German this is VERY CONFUSING but also VERY FUNNY!!!
"Labrie is the Ulrich of metallica" LMAO
*Dream Theater
So true
@@tromboneman4517 LaBrie writes great vocal parts? LOLOL okay....
Of Dream Theater* and yes it's true.
This was my reaction listening to this album for the first time, some 2 or 3 listenings laters and I absolutely love it
I thought I was the only one who thought DT headed by Russell Allen would be an awesome idea. I am SO relieved I am not the only one.
i've thought of it .. but I always liked symphony x better so fuck that
me too
I always thought Devon Townson would be perfect!
Ok i lost it with the soap joke
Petrucci took too many steroids! That is brilliant! LOLOL! This video literally read my mind
2:07 "LaBrie is the Ulrich of Dream Theater" LOL HAHAHAHAHAHA
I lost it at LaBrie is the Ulrich of Dream Theater
This is the funniest thing I have seen in a while and I am a big DT fan. Hate The Astonishing. What a waste of money that was.
It's OK, they'll be back on the next one. I do hope they change that drum sound though.
No they won't. Not with LaBrie's voice in the shape it's in. The Xanadu cover they put out recently has a more natural drum sound and STILL sucks because of the nasal auto-tuned vocals.
The Sons of Apollo part had me dyyyiiinnnggg!!
the meme that never gets old...
Even as a DT fan that really loves _The Astonishing_ , this is funny. "LaBrie is the Ulrich of Dream Theater." 🤣🤣
Loved the sons of Apollo reference , back to Disney line killed ne
Well it was a great album in my opinion
The Lars thing is natural. But yes, currently LaBrie is the Ulrich of the band. Sad to see how a food poisoning can destroy your career indirectly.
food poisoning ahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this is the best from the whole clip
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Mangini is drumming his way towards the exit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"overhyped oversold overmarketed" true !
Wow now Dream Theatre does sound like whoever made the song " A whole new world" for Disney's Aladdin...sad.

I don't know much about singing, so can you elaborate on why Labrie sounds like farts? I think he's pretty good
Sandro Obeid yeah, he was. Just check any recent show. You can also watch the "spiral" video from this channel as well to compare.
I'm sure it'll never happen, but I'd love to see Moore and Portnoy back in the band.
Maybe a side project like LTE? I'd be more than happy to see them together once again
Berke Filiz That would be awesome.
Check out the first couple O.S.I. albums. Portnoy and Moore together.
CNN news flash: that'll never happen, especially not Moore.
Man I’ve got news for you
0:36 Tragedy :D
as much as id like to see russell allen front DT, i would much prefer solo tradeoffs between john petrucci and michael romeo
thumbs up for the random kimbo slice reference.
😂😂😂 Thanks for mentioning the RuhrCongress in Bochum, my hometown. I had my graduation there and went to an Avenged Sevenfold there as well 😅
I rather liked The Astonishing, even if it's flawed. It reminds me of Ayreon, though not as cohesive. Still, this was pretty funny
I hate the Astonishing and like this clip!
Is that sons of Apollo band good? I haven’t had time to check yet! I thought the Winery dogs were good so who knows
I love Leprous.
I heard two songs off the album that sound exact the same. Does Mangini play at the same tempo throughout the entire album? Who knew all the testosterone flew out the window with Portnoy
I actually enjoy that album a lot, but this cracked me up.
It's ok Anna check out Sons of Apollo LOL!!!! (and couldn't agree more).
whoever made this is my hero
@2:46 really sounds like "prog band". 😂

You’re joking right? That album is unlistenable beside betrayal and love of music or whatever and I love dream theater
Agree, 4th best DT album in my discography 'cause the lyrics, musics structure, and the story. We don't know anything about music 🎸

I like The Astonishing but this was hilarious.....
Act of Faythe ❤
They play with such tabu, that it must Be illegal. Russell Allen etc.
2:55 xdddddd
Wow that was brutal haha...
Well, now that the lead singer's vocal chords legitimately have rust on them, and the drummer has been replaced with a robot so....
It's OK, Anna. Check out Sons Of Apollo. 😂😂😂😂 I'm Dead
This is pure gold

Replace him with Roy Khan, Russell Allen or John Arch

Well I managed to peek through their window that night and guess what, him and Eva were listening to the album.... they even forgot to make out.
I'm jew and i laughed so hard from this😂😂😂
same!
The astonishingly shit
Ah back when this channel was funny
There are only 2 good tracks on the entire album. Track 1 and 2 off cd 1. The rest makes me feel like I'm watching 'Beauty and the Beast'
"La brie is the Ulrich of dream theater "
LOLOL so spot on.
Kimbo Slice hahhahaha
kimbo slice. hahahaha
I’m crying this is so funny!! 😂
Omg thats pretty funny. The astonishing is my favorite album by them though lol. That album has a lot of meaning in the lyrics also. Not just ridiculously technical thus had more feeling to me. To each their own.
Hahaha me too this was funny but I did love the astonishing album.
Best one yet😂😂😂😂
I laughed with a different laugh throughout this .. pfff!
I laughed in 5/12 over 7/8
lmfao... perfect hahaha
Wow, a hitler react video, what is this, 2009?
Better an old good meme than a new shitty one like Crash Bandicoot.
haha wtf? r u ok cause Crash's meme died months ago dummy
Somebody likes The Crapstonishing.
xdDddddd how will he ever recover
still an awesome meme. A meme that can work for a lot of shit and almost everything in existence is THE perfect meme!

Is that Jimmy Kimmel?
Fucking hilarious...😂😂😂
What movie is this from?
Downfall (2004)
hahahaha this video nailed it !
Fucking hilarious!
LMFAO
This is hilarious. 😂😂😂
'least AVFTTOTW is pretty good
If you can get past the processing of the vocals, which many of us can't.
Leprous
Why couldn't you use one of the good songs :(
What good songs?
@@theravenskillrebelmilitia139 Moment of Betrayal!
Oh come on, Sons of Apollo? Their vocalist is the most generic and bland vocalist there is.
Hahaha, this is a good one!
"it's Ok Anna, Check out Sons Of Apollo" Hahahahahaha fucking lost it on that one.
hahahahahaha
It's Ok Anna, check out BTS.
Eww. Who would listen to that band that's not a preteen girl?
@@theravenskillrebelmilitia139 I hate them but my daugther like them. LOL
Getting old now
Ok... minus the religious jokes which I didn't care for, this was hilarious... And true.... Really what did happen to manginis drum sound. it's horrible.
Tavares Project dude there wasn't a single "religious" joke wtf
Probably, this was the first "Hitler reacts..." video in which Hitler reacted to a modern issue while he stayed THE Hitler. Not bad at all.
Yeah the drum sound sucked, but at least the snare was a bit better than the self-titled...
Angels Unchained yes. You are so right. That snare drove me nuts. I kept mentioning it to my drummer buddy.
Sons Of Apollo sounds worse than Astonishing....
Lmao amazing
just play this album when you play Final Fantasy XV,that's fucking amazing!!
hilarious lol
