    It is not full virsion of song. It is shorten for making music video. It is still nice music video with cool vision. I know their song become longer and longer. and it seems difficult to make full virsion of music video. But you can make a new level of music video. progressive vison through the song. Like a short film??!! Please do it !!
  • Song is insane.

    Love this video, song, and of course, the BAND!!!! This is an excellent song that is great to listen to when you need high energy. And if you're really into the song, it'll give you chills. (Not necessarly a bad thing) Buy this video and you might consider looking at some of the other songs that Dream Theater does. It's all good stuff.
  • new album

    i've always thought that the vocals of dream theater were the weakest part. They vocals arent as progressive, theres not as much goingly on musically there, and they are usually pretty basic. but who really listens to DT for the lyrics?

    Beware fellas, this is not the complete tune!!! Though this isn't as hacked-up as the Constant Motion video, it's still missing what I considered integral phrases. For example: After Petrucci's solo, the 4/4 unison phrase between that and Rudess' keyboard solo is gone. Oh, wait...so is the keyboard solo. I know that DT's genius will never be able to write a song less than 15 minutes (ha ha), but for a band that has such a loyal fan-base, and is loyal to their fans, why are their videos so jacked-up? I could understand "In the Name of God" being cut due to a 14:15 length (good reason not to make it a video), but "Rite of Passage" is 8:36. Cut DT some slack and give us a full video! THE LENGTH IS THE LAST THING FANS ARE WORRIED ABOUT! In fact, we may appreciate the video more because of the effort. BOTTOM LINE: If you've got the song, you don't need the video.

    Are you stupid?? What do you mean the solos do not fit into the song? You are crazy. If you actually listen to the rhythmic and melodic phrasing behind John and Jordan's solos you will hear that the phrasing is the same phrasing that is used previously in the song it is just more exploratory, modulating to new keys or modes. They are elaborating emotion through their instruments. The same goes for "Sacrificed Sons" and "The Ministry of Lost Souls", they are extensions of the music. Besides, if you cut out the solos all together the music will lose a certain sense of progression and virtuosity. I can't believe you would publicly make those comments. Keep your ignorance to yourself.

    Idk, this is actually pretty evil, and pretty mean 2 freemasons. I mean the song is 2 but it isn't shown in visual form. but 1 thing can be interpreted 2 ways, they cut the solo out. Now i will say it's a good solo, but it's completly unnecessary in the song because it's different from the actual melody. I hate when DT does that, they do that with the ministry of lost souls and sacrificed sons. So i think it's good, but the solo could be used for a seperate song, cuz it really is awesome. But in truth, i vote exnay on the video, just get the song.
  • AWESOME SWEETNESS OUT B4 THE ALBUM???? REJOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
