So I guess Dream Theater really weren't kidding when they said their new record would be way, way heavier than their 2016 concept album The Astonishing. The band's new song "Fall Into The Light" is extremely metal with its opening Metallica-esque riff, tons of full-band double bass unisons and a chorus that reminds me a lot of something that would've been off Scenes From A Memory.
I'm completely shocked by this song, honestly. "Untethered Angel" was a cool listen, but it didn't really offer anything new from the group. "Fall Into The Light" does. Dream Theater will release Distance Over Time on February 22, and at this rate it might be one of my favorite records from the group in quite a while.
