Jim Matheos has got to be my favorite song writer of the modern music era. Mark Zonder is my favorite drummer all time, close second for Neil Peart. And I think Ray Alder is the most underrated vocalist ever.
@Amebixfan yeah i think dream theater was in high school when No Exit came out. I know when they borrowed their keyboardist I didn't even know they did, didn't know who he was and I didn't know who they were for damn sure. Not saying I don't like them but Dream Theater wouldn't be who they are if it wasn't for Fates in my opinion.
Check out the amazing work of Mark Zonder in this international project released by Major Denial of Greece. soundcloud.com/major-denial/03-i-am-the-shadow I am so proud to have sang this song! Absolutely beautiful work!
OMG Mark Zonder'a drumming is out of this world!!
Is does not get any better than Zonder
Agreed. Zonder is a beast and my favorite drummer ever.
Rhythm section is tight as fuck. Can't get enough of the drum and basswork during the chorus. So fucking good.
Ray Alder is one of THE best metal vocalists of all time hands down
I'm a guitarist and love Jimmy and Frank but sometimes I think I come for the guitars and stay for the drums. ;o]
One Of My Favorite Parts Of This Long Epic Track...
"Watched the days just pass
As the seasons changed
And the shifting sands
Slowly rearranged"
Brilliant lyrics, brilliant songwriting.
Yes true brilliance and talent
My fav FW album. PERFECTION.

+Randy Jones Agree with all of it, but ESPECIALLY about Jim Matheos. He is an absolute genius.
Sucks that Matheos doesn't get 10% of the recognition he deserves
That`s emotion pure...
unbelievable !!! just amazing
tHIS whole album sounds like Dream Theater with kevin Moore. However, is a masterpiece!!
You probbaly know that by now, but Kevin plays keyboards in the record
There is not a god dam thing the rest of the band could do. Mark Zonder owned this fucking song. Holy Shit
Great Band.
Zonder rules and this part special most technical FW songs
I love this album in paricular
MARK ZONDERR FRIKIN GENIUS
Tagline to the gray short sleeve (merch) shirt (backside) from tour. "Let nothing bleed into nothing.." Got that one & black long sleeve. Oh yeah!!
@MCCrleone354
It's not Kevin Moore in this live video, it's Ed Roth ( Impellitteri keyboardist )-FW tour musician in 1997.
Το ποιο τεχνικό κομμάτι στα τύμπανα που έχω ακούσει. Βασικά ο Zonder δεν υπάρχει, είναι υπεράνω σύγκρισης.
"Ora che ho perso la vista, ci vedo di piu"
@adi0913 No, it's Kevin Moore on keys, but good guess.
@pinkzeppelinbeat - look at Jim's T-shirt , 0:10 with sleeves and 0:21 without sleeves - and this is real magic !
Let nothing bleed into nothing... and did nothing at all...
