Artist: DREAM THEATER
Album: SCORE - 20TH ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR (3CD BOX)

Release date: 2006
EAN/UPS: 0081227406226
Media type: CD

2006 commemoration of the group's 20th Anniversary World Tour on 3CD's, recorded live at Radio City Music Hall on April Fool's Day, 2006 with The Octavarium Orchestra. Almost 3 full hours of material is included and half is performed with the full orchestra.

Sidestepping the glam and thrash obsessions of their peers, Dream Theater updates Rush's blueprint with a modern texture. The progressive metal touchstones are all here: changing time signatures, dizzyingly complicated tablature, tonsil-snapping lead vocals, lyrical bombast, and a healthy sense of self-importance. John Petrucci and Co. deftly combine all of these elements on SCORE: 20th ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR LIVE WITH THE OCTAVARIUM ORCHESTRA, their fourth (!) live record since 2001. While SCORE might not be the best start for neophytes, the three-disc opus will sate the appetites of serious devotees.
