A View from the Top of the World is the fifteenth studio album by progressive metal band Dream Theater. This acts as their first album to be recorded at their own studio, DTHQ (Dream Theater Headquarters), and their first since Black Clouds & Silver Linings (2009) to include fewer than nine tracks. Additionally, it is their first album since Dream Theater (2013) to both contain a track of at least ten minutes in length and end with the longest track.
