Now how about the best band in the world, Dream Theater? =) Anyone ever hear of them- they are so awesome.

They have crappy album covers.

Also, i thought this was going to be a thread about sum 41 and other pop-punk garbage. =/

lol

You kidding , there album covers are awesome! There so mysterious o_O

Horrible.

excuse me? Tot is awesome, just cuz they decide to keep their covers a mystery doesn't mean they suck. What cd covers do you like- ones with the band sitting there looking at you or maybe the ones where it just says the title and album. This can actually be considered a piece of artwork (as well as their music is more of a composed piece of music)

its bad artwork. no unity. no harmony. no clear lines of movement. the proportions are out of whack. the eyeball is completely out of place. its just bad art imo.

i dont know what covers i like. most covers are fine. that one definitely isn't.

o billy. <3

Alice is right man, they are horrible...

think w.e u want about the covers but the band itself is far from horrible and you cant say that chorns unless you've actually heard some of their songs (not just the hard ones but the piano and light ones as well)

and btw thats what the covers are sposed to be like, whacked up and mysterious. THats what I love about them.

i havent heard their music, i just know of that one cover.

o lol well there are better covers than that one but you shuld hear them - a very well put together band

I think Dream Theater is a pretty good band.

But yeah, they have hideous album covers.

They play at one of my favorite venues almost every year, around Christmas, and I always wanted to go.

lol act my dad was in a band with their keyboard player (Jordan Rudess) so I;ve gotten to meet them a few times.

fantastic band

a change of seasons = awesome

i thought this thread was about trance, how about that?!

yes, they are quite a good band

Also, i thought this was going to be a thread about sum 41 and other pop-punk garbage. =/

Pop-punk is a legitimate subgenre that existed when the members of Sum 41 were in diapers.

Please do not join MTV in dragging it through the mud. =(

Also, I think Dream Theater is poopy.

its bad artwork. no unity. no harmony. no clear lines of movement. the proportions are out of whack. the eyeball is completely out of place. its just bad art imo.


What about the dark border from the tunnel, and minor gradiation effect? The tunnel and trees which push off into the distance while the triangular shard of sky redirects you to the very obvious eyeball focal point? The sky,birds and even the top right corner of the tunnel which wasn't darkened are also a simple effects that slightly throw the conventional design off center. I don't like the image because "haha, there's an eyeball in the ground", but I don't think the problem is with unity or direction or anything like that. In anycase, not to such a degree that I would say there is none or anything remotely like that.

I only know about the covers too, I wasn't talking about the music, I have never heard it before...

Dream Theater have a lot to learn when it comes to the noble art of cover design. =/

I think this is the first time we've agreed on something..

Grats on being so retarded that everybody now looks down on an awesome band.

DT are great.

Falling into infinity was a great cover though. lolol people looking at eachother.

I'm not looking down at it, I'm just saying it looks weird for an album cover, that's all...

Excellant, band. I quite like the ToT cover, what can I say, I'm a fan of absttract stuff.

I seem to recall I reviewed That album a while back, I'm almost certain it was on here.

EDIT: Here (Thread 12380) we go.

I agree on this dying soul and honor thy father. I find the rest feels like John Petrucci got bored again.

it starts off nicely with the tunnel effect and the attempted movement with the trees and even the bar-esque lines in the tunnel, but it goes all wrong because everything is placed in awkward positions. the shadow at the bottom where the tunnel ends is crooked, and really the whole picture is lopsided with more emphasis on the right side (note the dark thing at the bottom of the tunnel) even though the eyeball is supposed to be the obvious focal point and it is on the left. just bad imo. but thats just my personal taste. plus, eyeball and all. so thats why i think there is no harmony or unity basically. it doesnt look like the objects or even lines in the work get along too well. =/
