Biography

Dream Theater

Moore began his career in 1986 with guitarist John Petrucci, bassist John Myung and singer Chris Collins in the band Majesty, which was later renamed Dream Theater. After three studio albums Moore left Dream Theater in 1994 to take on other musical projects in attack and produce an album in Santa Fe, New Mexico. As the former drummer of Dream Theater, Mike Portnoy, said Moore had previously taken more and more distance from the other band members, private as well as musically.

Solo projects

After the completion of the album Moore moved to Costa Rica, where he worked for Radio For Peace International. Excerpts of his work for the radio have appeared on the album Memory Hole 1.

In 2003, Jim Matheos struck, the guitarist of Fates Warning, Moore before a musical collaboration with drummer Mike Portnoy and bassist Sean Malone ( Cynic ). The thus resulting band was called OSI. Their first album was called the Office of Strategic Influence.

In 2004, Moore traveled to Istanbul, where he composed the music for the horror film Okul, which he published as an album ( Ghost Book). Then the Chroma Key album Graveyard Mountain Home came ( as an alternative soundtrack for the movie Age 13 from 1955 ) on the market.
