When I saw the trailer Said trailer: The original album is a 1h50m progressive metal concept album from 2004, about a man who crashes his car and ends up in a coma. Every song is a day in the coma, and (most of) the vocalists play his emotions. The album is about the coma patient trying to make sense of his conflicting emotions, trying to make sense of what happened, trying to make sense of his life. It's pretentious, it's cheesy, It's some of the best progressive metal / rock ever written, it's glorious. And now there's a stage production of it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It represents my reaction to it though. What is a DVD? There's also a blu-ray. Me? I'm old enough to remember the predecessor to the predecessor to the predecessor of the DVD.

DVDs are uncommon. Why buy something I can stream, after all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
