Dream Theater е американска progressive metal група, която от втората половина на 80-те години е сред пионерите на технически предизвикателния и композиционно амбициозен рок. Съчетава виртуозност, сложни структури и концептуална драматургия.
Записът Making of Scenes From a Memory - Sessions (1999) на CD/LP предлага уникален поглед към създаването на култовия албум Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From a Memory. Съдържа алтернативни вокални версии, акустични outtake-и, живи репетиционни опити и ранни студийни записи, документиращи песни като Regression, Fatal Tragedy, Home, The Dance of Eternity или Finally Free. Изданието излезе през 2023 г. от издателство InsideOutMusic, за колекционери в ограничен тираж от 300 копия в gatefold опаковка.
