On the previous album he had sounded a lot like rush s geddy lee.
Dream theater awake vinyl review.
2x vinyl lp album numbered reissue remastered country.
Third dream theater album is the dark side of its successful predecessor.
Impenetrable because of its complexity awake icy atmosphere and melancholic melodies are in contrast with warm and hope of images and words.
Chill as a winter night.
And when the riffs aren t clunking away and filling the whole soundstage mike portnoy is drawing attention to.
Well this is just the awesome album but on vinyl on vinyl it is exactly the same only it is on vinyl it doesn t really sound any different on vinyl because it was recorded digitally there is a slightly more natural balance and space with in the music but it is hardly noticeable unless you make yourself hear which means it isn t really there still it is nice to own on vinyl because of the big big artwork size and the face it is a vinyl so yay.
The main difference between awake and images and words is that james labrie developed his own more distinctive vocal style.
Awake however takes the rushtallica sound of pull me under and runs with it for almost every song creating the prototype for every heavy dream theater composition to follow.
Enjoy the ride records etr 90126 format.
