Dream Theater – Falling Into Infinity – (Start Your Ear Off Right 2025) – 2LP Review

21st January 2025 0 By Jon Deaux

 Falling Into Infinity by prog metal masters Dream Theater is making a much-anticipated return to vinyl, now pressed on a luxurious 2LP 140g clear vinyl.

If you’re used to the digital version, this vinyl pressing offers an added warmth that is truly satisfying. The midrange is smooth, the bass is tight and punchy, and the highs shimmer without becoming shrill. The complex arrangements and signature instrumental wizardry that Dream Theater is known for come alive in a way that you have to hear to believe. Just listen to “Burning My Soul on this release to understand what I mean.

Falling Into Infinity feels like Dream Theater’s awkward teenage phase—caught between their heavy, math-rock roots and their evolving, more radio-friendly sound. Tracks like “Lines in the Sand” and “Peruvian Skies” highlight their trademark complexity, now complemented by catchy melodies that make you think, “Hey, maybe I could bring this to a party.”

 

This new pressing of Falling Into Infinity is a must-have. Not only does it sound incredible, but it also captures the grandeur and intricacy of Dream Theater in a way that digital formats simply can’t replicate.

So, buy it, play it, and let yourself fall into the endless layers of sound
Score 9/10
