A review by cbdrummer3
The Astonishing by Peter Orullian, John Petrucci

4.0

This would probably receive a 3/5 for me if it didn't have an incredible progressive metal concept album to go with it. I love it though because it expands the story line of the Dream Theater album and helping me to appreciate the music even more. The plot isnt anything insnae as John Petrucci mastery lies in the guitar and not writing stories however, it is still enjoyable. I also adore the idea of music being magic. The extra interviews with the band and the full lyrics for the album are a great addition as extras.
