Many listenings later, I find DT's A Dramatic Turn of Events to be rather ordinary. It's not a bland release by prog's master quintet but that sombre element is present & quite restraining the songs. However, in terms of heaviness, this one's a pleasant surprise. Much expectations lie with Mike Mangini's competency in replacing Mike Portnoy & the former skinsman levelled his performance with the latter but there were no surprises in terms of technicalities.
