Dream Theater announce new live album ‘Quarantième: Live à Paris’

DREAM THEATER have announced a brand new live release!

The upcoming release, titled Quarantième: Live à Paris, captures the band’s sold-out headline show at the Adidas Arena in Paris during their 40th Anniversary European tour. It marks the first live release since the return of drummer Mike Portnoy, joining James LaBrie, John Petrucci, John Myung, and Jordan Rudess for an iconic lineup. The album is scheduled to be released in November this year, via InsideOut Music/Sony Music.

Speaking about the release, John Petrucci says, “from the moment we announced our 40th anniversary tour, we knew it would be a very special event for both the band and our fans and must be captured. With this release, our performance in Paris is presented so beautifully in both stunning audio and video and really encapsulates this momentous occasion for all to enjoy.”

Mike Portnoy adds, “we always knew this tour would be unforgettable because not only were we celebrating 4 decades since forming the band, but also the reunion of the band’s classic lineup. The excitement and emotions between us and our fans at each and every show were palpable and totally off the charts! The night captured here in Paris was an epic evening that we can now share with the whole world to celebrate this incredible tour.”

The setlist spans the band’s entire career, featuring classics like Metropolis Pt. 1, Panic Attack, Octavarium, and Pull Me Under. To coincide with the announcement, the band have released the live version of Overture 1928 / Strange Déjà Vu, alongside a performance video.
