Progressive metal giants Dream Theater release their 16th original album with the huge news of the surprise return of drummer Mike Portnoy. With their Grammy Award-winning track "The Alien" from their 2021 album "A View From The Top Of The World," they have further solidified their unshakeable position, but fans have long awaited the return of Portnoy, one of the band's founders, an unparalleled talent, and a core member of the band alongside John Petrucci (G) in songwriting and arranging.

Featuring 8 tracks and a running time of 71 minutes, the album was mixed by Andy Sneap (Judas Priest, Arch Enemy, Megadeth, etc.), who also mixed their previous album.
