My most played album #989. Dream Theater - Octavarium. The eighth studio album released in 2005. Octavarium was the last album recorded at The Hit Factory in New York City. The Hit Factory, a studio in which artists such as Michael Jackson, Madonna, Stevie Wonder, U2 and John Lennon had recorded, Dream Theater was the last band to record there before it was permanently closed. The album peaked #2 in Finland and Italy, #4 in Sweden, #36 in the U.S. and #72 in the U.K.. I still find it strange how an album can be a big hit in some countries but not in others. Each song on the album is in a different key reflecting each octave contains eight naturals and five accidentals. 13 songs 13 keys = an octave hence Octavarium.

범작보다도 더 많은 명작을 가진 Dream Theater지만 이들의 앨범들 중에서도 최고 명반을 뽑으라면 아마 Images And Words, Metropolis Pt. 2, 그리고 본작이 뽑힐 것이다. Images And Words야 90년대 프로그래시브 메탈의 효시로 여겨지면서, 현재까지도 많은 사람이 가장 선호하는 작품으로 알려져 있다. Met... Read More
