On the heels of their recent third GRAMMY nomination and as their rescheduled North American tour kicks off next week on February 2nd, millions-selling progressive music titans DREAM THEATER have released another music video from their recently released 15th studio album “A View From The Top Of The World”. “Transcending Time” is the fourth video released from the band’s latest album and is another CGI creation by long-time collaborator Wayne Joyner. The song has been a fan-favorite since the album was released and is the shortest track on the band’s latest album clocking in at 6:24. The performance showcases the band’s musical influences while being quintessential DREAM THEATER. Check out the video below.
The rescheduled dates for their postponed North American leg of the “Top Of The World” tour will kick off in Mesa, Arizona on February 2 and will run seven weeks before ending in Austin, Texas on March 21. The tour will also make stops in Los Angeles, California; Montreal, Quebec, Canada; New York City and Dallas, Texas, among others, and will mark the first live performances of music from DREAM THEATER‘s latest release, “A View From The Top Of The World”.
