Dream Theater were almost aggressively out of fashion in 1999. Few bands subscribed to their dense blend of progressive rock and post-Halen metal, and those that did usually didn't have major-label contracts, the way Dream Theater did. There was a point where they tried to straighten out their sound somewhat as they flirted with straight-ahead, laid-back metal on 1997's Falling Into Infinity, but with its 1999 studio sequel, Scenes from a Memory, Dream Theater delves straight into old-fashioned prog rock. Scenes from a Memory is an unabashed concept album told in two acts, about the 1928 murder of a young woman and how a modern man is haunted by the crime
