All credit to Dream Theater, the greatest band in the world!
Almost 4 months of work is almost done… I just said rough draft because I know I will end up editing a few things. I am open to any criticism.
Anyways… Enjoy!
Notes:
Sheet 22 is an INSANE synth solo that literally only Jordan Rudess himself could replicate or play. I am not Jordan, so I could not replicate it. I tried, realized I screwed up a few hours into just that solo, and gave up.
If you remove the guitar (clear layer 1) in sheet 19, the bass and vocals sound really cool together.
I know the 2nd part of the synth solo sounds weird because of all the pitch bend and vibrato. If there is one thing I’ve learned in all of this it’s
Holy crap. Sheet 19. That’s freaking Dying Sould on Train of Though 0o
This, Panic Attack, and As I Am are my favorite songs.
Anyway 1st off. The FACT that you could even recreate this song is epic. And I can’t wait to see your final draft. I will await it. All the things other than the fact that notessimo instruments don’t sound like real instruments you addressed.
Yep, This song is part if the Twelve Step Suite with The Glass Prison, This Dying Soul, The Root of All Evil, Repentance, and The Shattered Fortress. Each has riffs in it from the others, and its fun to figure out. And Panic Attack is one of my favorites too, craziest guitar and keyboard solo ever.
