Dream Theater - Making of Forsaken

3:10 - The best moment of Prog Rock

[@avengedsoul6661]

Petrucci: *pulls off end of mad solo* Also Petrucci: *”THAT SUCKED!”*

[@armandaguilerlopez8463]

Petrucci: does an amazing lick Also Petrucci: that sucks

[@Christiandres43]

Man! LaBrie's voice... Just beyond words....

[@jamesgoldman6942]

EPIC voice!

[@zmb5501]

He could still sing then for sure

[@ShatteredWindowpane]

God, LaBrie nails every single thing he sings here. it's a shame they're so hard on him throughout this. "GUYS YOU HAVE ANY MORE COMPLIMENTS?" Lol

[@dandavidson1704]

ShatteredWindowpane it’s good to have bandmates that push you

[@indiegoo]

This guy is a great example of perseverance and hard work. F°ck everyone who hates him

[@fieryredpodcast]

@@dandavidson1704 really? When you sign on to a project and they give you 3 days to learn an album, and admit they programmed stuff an 8 armed person could not play, and get mad at you for not nailing it? You blame the guy 3 days in?

[@Neo-Midgar]

@Christopher Har V The way he sang that was even better than what ended up on the record.

[@vosoryan]

​@fieryredpodcast4273 Chill tf out. If you think this is them getting mad at him you're very sensitive. This is just what the album recording process looks like. You're not gonna get very far if you're overly concerned with your bandmates feelings

[@asdfhuk]

7:40 proof that he dampens his strings in studio, thank fk he is a human after all

[@gr8guitarplayer]

I'm working on my technique by learning Petrucci's stuff, and muting unwanted strings has a lot to do with very small details of how you place your picking palm, and the fingers of your fretting hand. Using high gain, you have to dampen every string you're not playing. It takes just as much practice as learning the licks themselves. One note can make an open string ring out just because it matches a harmonic of that open string. People say you should practice with a clean tone, and while that's good advice to ensure you're not using distortion and delay to mask your mistakes, you need that gain to highlight sounds that you wouldn't hear when playing clean. You can even hear the dissonance that happens when changing strings, if you don't mute or lift your finger at the exact moment you play the next note, even if it's only for a millisecond, with a high gain tone. I say practice the song with the tone you'll use when playing the song live.

​@@gr8guitarplayer hope you haven't spent the last year over thinking everything

7:49 "That sucked!"....still makes me laugh 10 years later.

[@dandavidson1704]

[@alexandert696]

Ι guess the bending note came out dead because of the fretting ?

He is just amazing!

Meeeeee! Like MEeeeeeEEee or MeeEEeeEeEEE? Nah more like MEeemeee! Ok, MeeeeEEe! It sounds weird but that's the beautiful thing about cooperation.

[@bimonsolivar8898]

The verse sounds so sick without vocals! Wow! 4:35

I still hear "Give your cell phone to me" every single time now. Damn you KZbin comments!

Dude I wasn’t gonna ever hear that but then you went and said it… 💀

I still heard that words in 2023 ! 🤣🤣🤣

James is a awesome singer and then when the guys add their back up harmonies it sweetens the pot more.

[@moonflow5133]

8:50 they troll him so hard

[@ganmoron]

i love the way labrie said "the fuck was that?!?!"

[@danielbarrera261]

I think Mike didn't like how he delivered the "the fck was that?" I think he prefered it to be a little higher

3:29 that’s why Portnoy was so important in the Band!!! I’m so happy he’s finally back!!!

[@MauroRincon]

LaBrie is such a nice dude

[@alexandert696]

Ι actually love Portnoys voice

[@jamesgoldman6942]

First Time I've seen this was today. That was AWESOME! Did NOT have a clue that the GREATEST drummer of ALLLL Time had the pipes too. James Labrie nails every note. Great video.

[@emiliovlog451]

5:55 I miss portnoy..😭😭

[@LorenScott69]

8:29 Poor James! He's kicking ass and the guys are just brutal in their critiques!

[@LorenScott69]

I just happened to stumble on this video, and was about to make this exact comment that I see I made a year ago!! Poor James!

[@Kowkarot]

4:55 Myung surprises me even with the simplest things, a riff that any bass player would play with one or two fingers, he plays it with three and still sounds like if he was playing with only one

[@maldivirdragonwitch]

To everybody who says the other guys are too hard on LaBrie: being in a recording studio is a very different experience from anything else. Priorities and attitudes change, that's completely normal. They are pushing him towards a good product and he is just tired. I don't sense any bad vibes here, it's just a general fragility that happens in a recording studio. :)

[@pedrosilvaproductions]

I don't think they're hard at all on LaBrie. It's just how it is in recording studios. You want to sound a particular way and have to practice and learn, and try things. Anyone that thinks they were hard never been into recording studios

[@vosoryan]

Thank you. Anyone who's recorded music knows you have to be completely honest with each other. It takes a level of respect and intimacy to be able to record and write music together for decades

[@OutlawStarkiller]

At the end I feel like they're joking with him, but Labrie was about to get kinda mad

[@wisnubasktrucci]

When JP repeat the words, he also said “ give ur cellphones to me” ! 🤣

[@EJE22822]

@moyrml it just looked like a towel or something wrapped around the neck and strings to deaden them up so the strings he wasn't playing on didn't ring out while he recorded the lead part.

[@avengedsoul6661]

MAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[@20TheGame09]

Ah Mike...you need to come back man!!!

[@Hallow334]

May fav on the album.

[@bluegender2005]

The most badass intro in the history of television!

[@anirudhviswanathan3986]

This song would have been even better if they hired a female singer to harmonise with JLB in the chorus. Would have given that vampire vibe even more

[@danichopz]

John Petrucci's face! 2:39 JUST MEMORABLE!

[@NorthMetal]

Best singer of all time. We love you in Canada James

[@jamesgoldman6942]

I second that. Rik Emmit and Mike Reno are pretty damn good too. Oh Canada!

[@amaranthorobia1172]

People: What's the challenge about this new album? DT: Playing things slow... People: WTH? HAHAHAHHAA

[@dandavidson1704]

Amaranth Orobia that’s actually tru though the thing about playing slow is it’s harder to be steady and keep time

[@AkulBhatt]

Why so few views? I found this video so insightful.

[@marcioporcio]

What's the name of the song called By Mike Portnoy at the minute 5.57? PLEASE, TELL ME!!!!!

[@jamesgoldman6942]

Puff The Magic Dragon. Its 'Little Jackie Paper' Peter Paul & Mary sang it. Mike P was jacking with the lyrics I think. Funny as hell.

[@joshburns1777]

Does anyone know the name of that chord John Petrucci plays at 5:54 (the second last in that acoustic chord progression?) It sounds strange but cool :)

[@suspiciousdoge9yand104]

This is 9 years too late but I think its B minor 7 flat 5 to B minor

what does petrucci have on his guitar at 7:43 ? is it a capo?

[@RodHammett95]

Ok, maybe it was too soon to say this when Mangini just arrived, and I needed to gave him some time. But now that time has passed, I can honestly say (remember, this is just my opinion) that DT is not DT without Portnoy. Period.

[@facuigua8983]

[@SkyAvila983]

Yeah...but working in a studio usualy is about putting out ideas and the idea that wins is the one everybody likes so its not about picking on someone - its about chosing.

Puff the Magic Dragon, I believe. It's like the themesong for stoners. :P

[@joshfriesen4438]

I always thought this song had Christian/catholic themes because I had heard some members like petrucci were catholic. So i always thought for some reason, when they were saying, "I have come for you" was about God coming for someone in their time of need and to "Give yourself up to" God...I guess I was wrong🤣
