Dream Theater recalls Distant Memories of a Pale Blue Dot
Progressive metal titans Dream Theater will unleash their ninth live album, “Distant Memories – Live In London”, on November 27th.
Recorded at their sold-out show at London’s Apollo Theatre, the live release documents the band’s world tour in support of “Distance Over Time” and the 20-year anniversary of their seminal concept album, “Metropolis Part 2 – Scenes From A Memory”.

“Whether you had a chance to see this tour in person and want to relive what was hopefully an awesome concert experience or enjoying the performance on video for the first time, Distant Memories – Live In London very accurately and very beautifully captures the energy and excitement we all felt together at the Apollo this past February,” explains guitarist John Petrucci.
“Distant Memories – Live In London” is the band’s first live release since 2014’s “Breaking the Fourth Wall”. The new live release will be available in various configurations including digital only, a 3-CD and 2 DVD multibox, a 3-CD and 2 Blu-Ray digipak with slipcase, a limited deluxe 3-CD + 2 Blu-Ray + 2 DVD Artbook and a limited 4-LP and 3-CD box set. The video components will also feature a Behind The Scenes look at the band as they get ready for the shows.
