4.0 out of 5 stars Information about the DVD, 9 Aug 2007
By R. Lee - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The other reviews tell you all you might want to know about the music. I'd like to point out that the DVD contains only fan-made videos of the band (taken with amateur cameras at gigs), some of which are really quite poor quality and are really only included for hardcore fans. The DVD was a bit disappointing because of this... I expect I won't watch it more that once as you can find stuff about as good (or better if you look for Gigantour) on YouTube.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best musical purchases you'll ever make, 26 Jun 2007
Buying this import from Amazon.co.uk instead of the US Amazon is more prudent. This is being sold for almost twice the amount in the US Amazon.

As for the product itself, this album could prove to be the overall strongest album of Symphony X, and that's saying something considering this is the band that released 'The divine wings of tragedy' and 'V: The new mythology suite.'

My personal favourites are 'Seven' and 'Walls of Babylon.' What adds to the strength of the music is that the lyrics are also very meaningful, something which is not usually considered for bands of a similar genre as Symphony X.

The album deals with Milton's book in its various aspects, primarily the fall of Satan and the temptation of Eve. Not to say that the album relies solely on Milton, the lyrical ideas themselves are more modern.

The DVD is a great addition, with a great song selection. I wouldn't have thought to see 'Dressed to kill' live in an official release, for one thing.

Buy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another exceptional prog metal release for 2007!, 4 Jul 2007
By Dr. D. B. Sillars - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
There has been a substantial influence of metal based rock on progressive rock in recent years as evidenced by groups like Dream Theater and how Porcupine Tree have changed. The latter have embraced the darker metal elements of Opeth and Meshuggah, seamlessly mixing harder edged rock into their melodically rich songs. But I think this year has been a watershed for progressive metal, with Therion, Rush, Dream Theater, Threshold, Porcupine Tree all releasing significant albums which have all gained popular critical reaction. Add to that Symphony X's new album.

Some five years since their last album, "The Odyssey", this new offering sees them showcasing a darker, harder edged sound. Not as symphonic or classically influenced compared to earlier releases, this is an album by a band that mean business and are very emphatic about that! Some may be disappointed on first listen, but the complexity and subtle nuances of arrangement and song structure are still very much in evidence. It just takes a couple of listens for the power and character of each song to come to the fore. Though the guitars of Michael Romeo are very much to the forefront, keyboardist Michael Pinnella's contribution is of equal importance. Especially his piano and synth playing which are exquisite throughout.

Though the songs are all of a very high calibre, there are some exceptional moments on this album which clearly show how much care and attention this band give to the arrangements. One key example is the intro to "Domination". A wonderful bass solo opening by Michael Lepond before the band kick in. Another is Russell Allen's emotionally powerful vocal performance on "The Sacrifice".

Symphony X have been away for too long. This album should put them in the forefront of the current wave of impressive progressive metal bands. Welcome back indeed!
