(Super17)</title><description>  &lt;blockquote class="quote"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;maybe constant motion  &lt;br&gt;  ITPOE pt1 the instrumental  &lt;br&gt;  ITPOE pt2 the epic  &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  thats my feeling &lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;br&gt;  Im thinking the same way. DT has been opened their cd's with instrumental's before (SFAM, 6DOIT disc 2) so I wouldn't be suprised if they did it again. And I think since they hyped up the idea that there is going to be an Epic this time around, they wouldn't just split it in half, knowing that it would disapoint many fans, so they probably took the first 3-5 minutes of the Epic and put as the first track, so the song doesnt loose too much of its epicness.  &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  Now concerning that 1st track everyone heard at the studio...that was obviously pushed back as the 2nd track to make room for the begining of the epic. And I can make that asumption because when you guys went there Mike said there were 7 tracks, and now there is 8...so obvoisly they changed the albuma round since then and either one song was added or one song was split in half. But who knows, The Presence of Enemies might not even be the epic at all </description><link>http://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=1559619</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2007 16:37:40 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title> RE: Systematic Chaos track listing!!

(TommyShag)</title><description>  Love it! I am as excited as I can be over a tracklisting. The song titles put just a little bit more reality into the new release. I love how MP doles out a little info at a time to just reel you in. First the album title gets your imagination going, then song titles kick your anticipation up another notch. What's next, artwork? Actual song previews?? I cannot wait!!! </description><link>http://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=1558876</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2007 07:52:44 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title> RE: SYSTEMATIC CHAOS track listing!! (Sabredog)</title><description>  honestly these are the best titles from any dream theater album i think... and i'm not just saying that because they're new. "The Ministry of Lost Souls?" how awesome is that? &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  i'd like to chime in and say that i think the lyrics are going to be a step up as well. maybe some muse-inspired conspiracy-laden lyrics a la take a bow, eh? :P sounds far more... i don't know, like it's less personal, and more about the world around us. &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  and i wouldn't be surprised if there's some kind of underlying concept, or theme, but i very much doubt it'll be a concept album in the truest form. &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  also, i'm going to actually hit something if people keep on adding up the numbers to try and make things. they didn't count the numbers of letters in every word so that they add up to the mean number of tracks on any given live album or whatever. they threw some links with the octave into octavarium because it's their eighth album, and it's OVER now, so stop overanalysing these things. they didn't put In The Presence Of Enemies at the start and finish so the track numbers would add up to nine, i doubt the thought even crossed their mind. &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;  i hated the word "nugget" when octavarium came out, if it persists into systematic chaos's lifetime then there's some serious ass kicking to be done! :P </description><link>http://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=1558831</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2007 06:34:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title> RE: SYSTEMATIC CHAOS track listing!!
