My first brush with Dream Theater was in the early 1990’s after the album Images and Words hit the shelves. I was building yet another computer (I was chasing the dragon of gaming) and at Fry’s Electronics where I bought some of the components, I also grabbed me a copy of I&W.

I popped it into the CD Player, and whoa. I was smitten immediately. The era of progressive metal was born to me, and I was all in on it.

While I do not own all their albums, I have more than a smattering of their music in my collection.

This morning, I woke up as usual way too early, and my first brush with YouTube offered up a rare nugget. A new track by Dream Theater dropped.

I think I broke the speed of light to mash that play button, and I was treated to the track below.

They still have the magic. They still deliver the goods. And John Petrucci is still a guitar god.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. \\m/
