"Octavarium" is the follow-up to 2003's "Train of Thought", which has shifted

DREAM THEATER began writing and recording their latest album last November
at the Hit Factory studios in New York City. The CD will hold the distinction
of being the very last album ever recorded at the world-famous recording
facility, which recently closed its doors.
DREAM THEATER are currently touring Europe in support of "Octavarium". The
band will co-headline this summer's Gigantour, a six-week North American
festival trek also featuring MEGADETH, FEAR FACTORY, THE DILLINGER ESCAPE
PLAN and NEVERMORE, among others. Check out 85 pictures of DREAM THEATER
