Beyond selling millions of records worldwide and gathering a billion-plus streams, 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 have quietly evolved into progressive metal trailblazers over the course of an unprecedented journey earmarked by one unforgettable milestone after another. The career-launching 𝐼𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠 & 𝑊𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠 graced Rolling Stone’s “100 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑀𝑒𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐴𝑙𝑏𝑢𝑚𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐴𝑙𝑙-𝑇𝑖𝑚𝑒,” while Awake claimed #1 on Guitar World’s “𝑆𝑢𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑢𝑛𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑛: 50 𝐼𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑐 𝐴𝑙𝑏𝑢𝑚𝑠 𝑇ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝐷𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑑 1994.” In addition to emerging as Classic Rock’s “15𝑡ℎ 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑝𝑡 𝐴𝑙𝑏𝑢𝑚,” 𝑀𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑠 𝑃𝑡. 2: 𝑆𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑠 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑎 𝑀𝑒𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑦 toppled a fan-voted Rolling Stone poll as the “𝑁𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑂𝑛𝑒 𝐴𝑙𝑙-𝑇𝑖𝑚𝑒 𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑅𝑜𝑐𝑘 𝐴𝑙𝑏𝑢𝑚.” They shook the charts with three Top 10 debuts on the Billboard 200 and headlined sold out shows everywhere from Radio City Music Hall to Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The band garnered a GRAMMY® Award in the category of “𝐵𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑀𝑒𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑃𝑒𝑟𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒” for “𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝐴𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑛” from 2021’s 𝐴 𝑉𝑖𝑒𝑤 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑇𝑜𝑝 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑.

Now, 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 have returned to their roots as James LaBrie [vocals], John Petrucci [guitar], John Myung [bass], and Jordan Rudess [keyboards] reunite with Mike Portnoy [drums] during their fortieth anniversary. Simultaneously, these five old friends enter a bold new era fuelled by some of the most focused, formidable, and fiery music of their career. They’re harnessing the memories of the past and the promise of the future in order to make the most of the present. Ultimately, the group’s sixteenth full-length album, Parasomnia [Inside Out Music/Sony Music], represents both where they came from and where they’re going as not only bandmates, but as brothers.
