Progressive metal giants Dream Theaterhave put together a pretty awesome box set collection of their first 10 studio albums that all Dream Theater fans definitely need to get their hands on. You can check out the album info below and if it appeals, then get your hands on a pre-order from JB Hi-Fi!
‘The Studio Albums 1992-2011’ collects the first 10 studio albums from Dream Theater’s groundbreaking two-decade-plus career, from 1992's classic debut, 'Images And Words’, to 2011’s milestone, 'A Dramatic Turn Of Events’.
With total sales exceeding 10 million albums and DVDs worldwide, Dream Theater have long stood among the upper echelon of hard rock giants. Albums such as 1992’s classic 'Images & Words’ (featuring the breakthrough top 10 single, “Pull Me Under”) and 2002’s double album, 'Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence’ have earned the Long Island-based band countless accolades for their visionary synthesis of melodic power and virtuosic experimentation, including being named as one of Rolling Stone’s top 10 “Best Prog Rock Bands of All Time.”
In 2010, Dream Theater found themselves at a career crossroads following the departure of founding drummer/co-producer Mike Portnoy. To fill his seemingly unfillable seat, the band conducted an ambitious search which resulted in the addition of the gifted Mike Mangini. Most significantly, the challenge spurred Dream Theater to extraordinary artistic heights with 2011’s landmark 'A Dramatic Turn Of Events,’ earning the band its first ever Grammy Award nomination. Highlighted by the single, “On The Backs Of Angels,” the album proved one of the iconic band’s most successful, making top 10 chart debut in 14 countries. Furthermore, 'A Dramatic Turn Of Events’ was hailed for its ambition, complexity, and sheer melodic power.
