Systematic Chaos

''Systematic Chaos'' is the ninth studio album by American progressive metal/rock band Dream Theater. Released on June 4, 2007 in the United Kingdom and June 5, 2007 in the United States, ''Systematic Chaos'' was the band's first release through Roadrunner Records, which was sold to their previous label Atlantic Records, through which the band had released their previous studio album ''Octavarium'' (2005). The album was recorded from September 2006 to February 2007 at Avatar Studios in New York City, after the band's first break from summer touring in ten years. The lyrics of the album were written by John Petrucci, James LaBrie, and Mike Portnoy about fictional, political, and personal topics, respectively.
The album peaked in the top twenty in eight countries' sales charts; in addition, the album peaked at the nineteenth position on the ''Billboard'' 200, making it the highest peaking Dream Theater album in the United States until the release of ''Black Clouds & Silver Linings'' (2009), which debuted at the sixth position. Critical reception of the album was generally positive; Jon Eardley from MetalReview.com called the band, "arguably the most consistent band throughout the entire progressive rock/metal industry".〔
Dream Theater promoted the album on their ''Chaos in Motion'' world tour, which lasted a year and spanned thirty-five countries. The album was released in regular and special edition formats; the special edition included a 5.1 surround sound mix of the album, in addition to a ninety-minute "making of" documentary about the album.
==Background==
After recording their twentieth anniversary concert, ''Score'', on April 1, 2006, Dream Theater rested for its first summer in ten years.〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 3:58.〕 The band would reconvene at Avatar Studios, in New York City, in September 2006.〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 4:17.〕 Mike Portnoy stated that the relationship between band members was "the best it's ever been". The band hired Paul Northfield, who had previously worked with bands that had inspired Dream Theater, including Rush and Queensrÿche, to engineer the album.〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 4:24.〕 As with previous albums, Dream Theater simultaneously wrote and recorded ''Systematic Chaos''.〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 4:45.〕 Mike Portnoy and John Petrucci co-produced the album; Portnoy said that the band hires an engineer and a mixer to act as an "objective outside ear", but the members ultimately "call their own shots". Previous Dream Theater albums shared planned themes throughout, such as ''Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory'' (1999) as a concept album or ''Train of Thought'' (2003) as a heavy, "balls to the wall" album.〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 6:34.〕 Though Portnoy had some preconceived ideas for ''Systematic Chaos'', he decided not to tell the rest of the band; leaving them to start with a "completely open palate".〔 However, Portnoy did want to retain a "cutting, aggressive, modern" mood throughout, "It had to have balls," he added, "it had to be cool".〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 20:57.〕
The album was titled ''Systematic Chaos'' after Portnoy and Petrucci picked phrases from song lyrics that they felt would be a fitting title,〔John Petrucci, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 37:08.〕 in similar fashion to previous albums like ''Images and Words'' (1992) or ''Awake'' (1994). The pair selected the word "chaos", which appears in "The Dark Eternal Night".〔 Petrucci and Portnoy were also attracted to the phrase "Random thoughts of neat disorder" which appears in "Constant Motion". Inspired by the "duality" of the phrase,〔 opposites of the word "chaos" were discussed, resulting in the word "systematic".〔 Portnoy said that in addition to the album, "systematic chaos" is also a "fitting description of the band in general".〔Mike Portnoy, ''Chaos in Progress''. Event occurs at 38:02.〕
