Yesterday DREAM THEATER made an interesting announcement that they will be playing their new album in its entirety on their upcoming 2016 European tour despite not giving any details about the album like the title or even the release date.

Today, they have confirmed the new album will be called The Astonishing following a leak on tour posters from European promoters.

The band’s 13th studio effort will be the third with drummer Mike Mangini, who replaced Mike Portnoy following internal disagreements. Once again recording at Cove City Sounds Studios in New York, guitarist John Petrucci told Revolver in September, “We did the last couple albums there. It’s a great spot for us. It’s not too far from where I live and it’s where the band originated. It’s like home away from home for us.”
 
DREAM THEATER are eyeing an early 2016 release according to James Labrie in an interview over the summer.
