LA RECENSIONE

The other night I went to THEATER with her.

I was radiant, my mood was sky-high so much that I felt ON THE BACKS OF ANGELS, already planning to build my BRIDGES IN THE SKY... I would never have imagined that the evening would end so FAR FROM HEAVEN!

Just as we were entering the hall, in front of the official ticket ripper, I realize I don't have them anymore! I try to make up by saying they are LOST NOT FORGOTTEN, they must have fallen to the ground, I whisper to her that I'm sorry, I tell her to do with me as she pleases: BUILD ME UP, BREAK ME DOWN... but already BENEATH THE SURFACE of her face it's clear that my DREAM has vanished into thin air.

And she, BREAKING ALL THE ILLUSIONS, leaves.

Not even my OUTCRY at the counter could resolve anything, so much so that when I explain what happened, some old lady scolds me.

And here ends my DRAMATIC TURN OF EVENTS, for that night.

 

PS: this "recenZione" is participating in the De-Bartlebùùm-Contest for the MMitica-MMaglietta. Now, given the nonsense here exposed by me-myself, I expect QuiteALotOf 'na wheelbarrow of UNI, otherwise I'll come under your house and play you 'na cover of Drim Fiatar performed only with BigDrum and crooked flute.

 ‘Breaking All Illusion’ ... can be considered not only the best song on the album but rather the best Dream Theater song at least since ‘Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence.’

 ‘A Dramatic Turn Of Events’ … instills new life in a darker and more reflective sound than usual, although never as leaden as in ‘Train Of Thought.’

 "‘A Dramatic Turn Of Events’ is the best album written by Dream Theater in many (and many) years."

 "For fans, the album will be like a breath of fresh air taken in a mountain village, after breathing the smog of a chaotic and noisy metropolis."


By seppe76

 "A Dramatic Turn Of Events is once again technicality in the service of melody, it is assault and surrealism, wonder and dynamism, reflection and abandonment."

 "Dream Theater wanted to send a strong and decisive signal ... they are still one of the most fascinating realities in the world, still capable of captivating and involving."

 Without exaggerating, the D.T. with this album ... opened my eyes.

 It’s as if they discovered a new musical note to insert in the score, thus paving the way for countless evolutions for the future of all musical genres.

 No one will be able to say that I don’t want to help these poor DT: they only have 119 reviews and it’s not fair!

 I’m spreading a bit of the seed of corruption... if you make me win, I promise you an autographed photo with a wet t-shirt!
