The discography of Dream Theater, an American progressive metal/rock band, consists of twelve studio albums, two extended plays, eight live albums, one compilation album, eight video albums, seven singles, and eleven music videos. The band was formed under the name Majesty by guitarist John Petrucci, bassist John Myung, and drummer Mike Portnoy while the three of them were attending Berklee College of Music in September 1985. The trio added keyboard player Kevin Moore and vocalist Chris Collins in order to complete their lineup.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Dream Theater biography )〕 After the band released a demo entitled ''Majesty Demos'', Collins was replaced by Charlie Dominici in November 1987. The group signed with Mechanic Records, and released its debut album ''When Dream and Day Unite'' in 1989. Before the album's release the group agreed to change their name to "Dream Theater", inspired by a now-demolished California movie theater. After firing Dominici, Dream Theater hired Canadian vocalist James LaBrie in 1991.〔 LaBrie's debut album was ''Images and Words'', was the band's first gold-certified album by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), having sold more than 500,000 copies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Searchable Database ) Note: User must define search parameters as "Dream Theater".〕 The second was ''Scenes from a Memory''. Moore left the group after the recording of 1994's ''Awake'' and was replaced by Derek Sherinian for the album's tour—he was later hired as a full member, appearing on the EP ''A Change of Seasons'' and the full album ''Falling Into Infinity''. The double live album ''Once in a Livetime'' was released in 1998.〔 In 1999, Jordan Rudess was hired to replace Sherinian. Rudess's first work was ''Scenes from a Memory'', a concept album that followed the story of a murder mystery. In 2002, the group released ''Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence'', followed by ''Train of Thought'' in 2003, and ''Octavarium'' in 2005. Two more live albums were also released in this time period, and a new one, titled ''Score'', was released for the band's 20th anniversary and featured the band backed by a 29-piece orchestra. It was followed a year later by their ninth studio album, ''Systematic Chaos''.〔 Dream Theater's tenth studio album, ''Black Clouds & Silver Linings'', the band's second under Roadrunner Records; was released on June 23, 2009. In September 2010, founding drummer Mike Portnoy announced that he was leaving the band. The band filmed a documentary ("The Spirit Carries On") of their search for a replacement who they found in Berklee professor Mike Mangini.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dream Theater Biography )〕 In 2011, Dream Theater released their eleventh studio album ''A Dramatic Turn of Events'' and its homonym album in 2013, their first album featuring composition from him.
