Long Island, New York-based progressive metal band Dream Theater issued 15th full-length studio album A View From The Top Of The World on October 22nd, 2021 through InsideOut Music / Sony.
A View From The Top Of The World was produced by guitarist John Petrucci, with engineering and additional production by James “Jimmy T” Meslin. Mixing and mastering was handled by Andy Sneap.
With frontman James LaBrie in Canada, he initially wrote with the rest of the band via Zoom on a monitor in DTHQ – Dream Theater Headquarters), a combination live recording studio, rehearsal space, control room, equipment storage, and creative hive. In March 2021, LaBrie flew down to New York, quarantined, and recorded his vocals face-to-face with Petrucci.
“We just love to play our instruments,” observed Petrucci. “That never goes away. I love to be creative, write, and exercise that part of my mind. We’ve been able to do this for a long time, and we don’t take it for granted. Whenever we get together, we know we can’t disappoint ourselves or our fans, so we manage to try even harder.”
“We approach every album like it’s our first,” added LaBrie. “It’s been such a great ride, but we’re not going to stop.”
