The new album was alright, but I really didn’t like this song. Give me the heaviness of Train Of Thought any day over this.

not even then. DT has done more 2 innovate music than creed could do in a million years, and john petrucci and mike portnoy are geniuses, unlike scott stapp

I also think that Scenes and Train are the two best albums by DT

Falling into infinity and Octavarium are the bottom two…

Funly , I dont think Six degrees is that great……….

And black clouds is a decent record……. not their best not their worst , but a decent one….

Wither is kind of the weakest song by default. Hard to compare them to 13-19 masterpieces. BC&SL is always interpreted differently by fans. It’s been blasted for having none of the songs relate to one another and heralded for the epicness they hit on Count of Tuscany.

Since DT is my favourite band evarr, I’d say this is their 3rd best disc after Scenes and Train of Thought.

I actually liked Black Clouds and Silver Linings significantly more than Systematic Chaos and slightly more than Octavarium. I find that Wither is one of the better power-ballads they’ve done in a while, although it is probably still the album’s weakest.

The chord progression sounds suspiciously like Wind of Change by The Scorpions. I kept waiting for the whistling solo.

Black Clouds had some good songs, but it had way too much filler. Wither is included in that filler, and the video is boring.

Black Clouds is a great record and the video is pretty cool. Akerfeldt is in it so it wins by default.

I like the album, I’m not a huge DT fan but I think this is my second favourite album after Train of Thought. But yeah this song sucks.

Even Creed aren’t as boring as this song.

Underwhelming? what did you expect? they’re clearly playing in BRITAIN.

the video was ok, but the song… it sounds like something rehashed from Falling into Infinity; I don’t know… I guess I just expect them to release another Awake, or 6 degrees.

Dont like this album. First song is probably the only one worth bothering for, I even bought the three disc special edition. Kicking myself now. BUT I am a massive DT fan and this album was such a disappointment, just like Systematic Chaos and Octavarium. Bring back the good DT of old, More albums like Six degrees… and Scenes… However, I do dig Train of thought, so perhaps some of that aswell.

Agreed on the video’s meh-ness. Didn’t Bob Joni close the book on the “road weariness” thing in 1987?

As for the next DT album, I hope the band brings in some outside ears in terms of a producer. Portnoy basically explains BC&SL as “if ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, but since the overall improvement between BC&SL and SC isn’t all that great, I’d say it’s worth reexamining that assumption…

It is sad that one of my all time favorite bands has worn down to this.

not even when dream theater happens to put out music that sounds like creed?
