Singer Geoff Tate talked to Rock Radio about the musical direction of Dedicated To Chaos: "It's kind of like an 'Empire' record set 25 years in the future. [Laughs] It's a very listenable record, I think. I think people will find it interesting to listen to on headphones, especially. There's a lot going on with it. And there's definitely an emphasis on the rhythm section. Eddie [bass] and Scott [drums] have written a lot of the songs on this particular record, so it really showcases what they do, which is something very special."
