Live Release of 40th Anniversary Headline Show in Paris by the Iconic Lineup of James LaBrie, John Myung, John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy and Jordan Rudess – Out on November 28th – Now Available for Pre-Order at:
Fresh off their fourth career GRAMMY® nomination, progressive metal mainstays DREAM THEATER have released a live performance video for ‘Night Terror‘, the Best Metal Performance–nominated track from their 2025 album “Parasomnia”. The clip previews the band’s upcoming concert film and album, Quarantième: Live à Paris, recorded during their sold-out 40th Anniversary tour stop at the Adidas Arena in Paris. Watch the video here.
The band — James LaBrie, John Petrucci, John Myung, Jordan Rudess, and Mike Portnoy — earned the nod in the wake of a major year that included a celebrated reunion lineup, a new album, a global headline run, and continued demand from a fanbase spanning four decades and multiple generations.
In a statement recognising the nomination, DREAM THEATER said:
“We are truly humbled and grateful to receive our fourth GRAMMY nomination. After 40 years together, it still means so much to be recognised by the music community. When we began writing ‘Night Terror,’ it felt special to us on a personal level — so to see it resonate in this way is something we don’t take for granted. Thank you to the Recording Academy for this honour, and congratulations to all of the nominees this year.”
Quarantième: Live à Paris arrives 28th November via Inside Out Music/Sony Music and features a career-spanning set including “Metropolis Pt. 1,” “Panic Attack,” “Octavarium,” and “Pull Me Under.” The release continues momentum from recently issued live videos for “Overture 1928 / Strange Déjà Vu” and “Barstool Warrior.”
The project will be issued across multiple premium physical and digital formats, including a Limited Deluxe 3CD + 3Blu-ray Artbook featuring 68 pages of photography and artwork by longtime collaborator Hugh Syme, a Special Edition 3CD + 2Blu-ray Digipak, and a Limited Deluxe 180g 4LP boxset. The Blu-ray edition includes Dolby Atmos, 5.1 Surround, and high-resolution stereo mixes.

An album that was fifteen years in the making, DREAM THEATER released their sixteenth studio album, “Parasomnia” on February 7, 2025, via their longtime label home, Inside Out Music/Sony Music. From the
opening track “In The Arms Of Morpheus” to the closer of “The Shadow Man Incident,” DREAM THEATER returned with a collection of songs that showcased what has earned the band a loyal following for four decades. Clocking in at 71 minutes, “Parasomnia” debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums, the Hard Music Albums and Current Rock Albums chart selling over 18,000 combined units the first week. It also debuted at #41 on the Billboard 200 which is notable for a progressive metal band and shows the bands devout fanbase. The album has spawned music videos for the tracks “Night Terror,” “Midnight Messiah,” “A Broken Man,” and most-recently, “Bend The Clock.”
“Parasomnia” is a term for disruptive, sleep-related disturbances including sleepwalking, sleep paralysis, and night terrors. The album was produced by Petrucci, engineered by James ‘Jimmy T’ Meslin, and mixed by Andy Sneap. Hugh Syme returns once again to lend his creative vision to the cover art.
