It’s not only the wealth of sounds in Omnisphere; You’re struck by the fact that you hear magic sound after magic sound.

All of the guys love to take serious topics and go for it; we’re not writing a whole lot of love songs. With ‘Sacrificed Sons,’ we had some sensitivity there about how we’d present it. I remember there was a lot of discussion about the kind of words that would be used and how direct we wanted to be.

You are epic fail if you think you are better than me!

If you are into synthesis it’s a must have app. I’ve been jamming all night!

Affectors Harmagedon is a solid blast of PROG metal complete with burning solos, odd time signatures, orchestral highlights, and Rock riffs that will tear your head off! Excited that I could be a part of this album!

I had done two albums with the Liquid Tension Experiment, and both were interesting compared to Dream Theater, because with those we didn't have the window or the parameters of what Dream Theater is,

I know Dream Theater fans can be extremely possessive of this group. There were some fans that liked me joining, and I'm sure there were some who wanted to run screaming into the night.

Everybody brings something to the table, and we don't pretend not to have other influences, ... For instance, with the big title track -- which I'm very proud of and think is one of Dream Theater's best compositions -- I dug pretty deep into my background in Genesis and Yes and wanted to bring some of those flavors forward.
