@@jonathanhenderson9422 I have them both. Sympathetic Resonance is very special to me because I was dealing with cancer at the time (now cancer free) and the gloomness, heaviness, darkness and complexity of that release helped lift me out of my depression. And don't forget about the John Arch EP, A Twist of Fate.
I have been a fan of Fates Warning for almost half year and have listened to all their work and it's really awesome. I wish I had known them earlier. For me it's very sad that this great band is so underrated. Up the Fates and greetings from Peru!
@@sdreschke same, bought Awaken and Master of Puppets on cassette the same day, wore that Awaken tape out completely ! Behind Rush probabylymy number two fave band !
Same here since Spectre Within Album. Been pretty loyal ever since buying albums/CDs but sadly never saw them live. I did however meet Jim at at a music store. 🙂
The production is beyond awesome. The separation of the guitar tracks, the clarity of bass and kick drum, the well-balanced vocals. hats off. Oh, the songwriting is also excellent.
You can thank Ray Alder and Jim Matheos. Jim Matheos has got to be the most underrated song writer in the history of recorded music . Ray Alder has simply gotten better every single Fates album.
Been a fan since the begining back in the early days in CT. FW always put out quality music,Ray sounds fantastic as always, so does the rest of the band.
When I worked at a Bobs Clothing / Shoe store as a teenager, Jim Mathoes bought Puma's in Milford, CT. That was the most epic moment ever - I kept pretending to not be like "Dude your Jim mathoes" and instead I walked around him going "Disconnected...." "A pleasent shade of grey" "SOOOOO SO TIRED SOOOO ooo Oooooo" and eventually he spoke with me about Fates Warning and OSI after I got him his shoes and I was like "Yeah, I am in a band... what do you do?" hahaha then when I left I told the managers and they had no idea who fates warning was but the ladies were like "That long haired guy is a rock star?!" and i was like "YEAH HES A HERO OF MINE!" and they all got like flustered. I sold shoes to a legend.
I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again I won't pretend there is no end To what we learn from spite Avoiding the hurdles Throughout all the wreckage Desolate world all that's left And trying to hide all the scars that come Along with the mission I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again I'm afraid that mercy Will soon turn to vengeance Left there forsaken And when you're walking alone There where shadows fall I will come for you then I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again We all wander With our heavy hearts disguised As a monster, the most fragile kind Afraid to close our eyes Oh, am I broken? Oh, have I sunk so deep inside? Like falling backwards into empty space And out the other side I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again
I can’t begin to express how much I love this band although I’ve only seen them live just a handful of times considering I’ve been a huge fan since Parallels. This band just keeps getting better and better and I can’t wait to hear the new release.
Only got to see them once in 2004, on the FWX tour. They were excellent but one weird thing is that Ray Alder had just cut his hair and it was real short. It was the only time I saw it short.
Damn, I thought it was just me. I was a fan for a decade and a half before I saw them once. When I saw them the first time I was about 15 min late and was only able to catch two songs. I was fucking pissed! I’ve seen them only two or three other times with the last time sometime last years...
Awesome Track! Fates Warning was one of my favorite bands during the Perfect Symmetry/Parallels/Inside Out era and this sounds just as good as those classics. Love it!
I love FATES WARNING ! This song sounds great ! Ray’s voice is the BEST in the ProgMetal Genre !!! Can’t wait to hear the full album ..... At least something from 2020 to make our souls and ears Happy !
@@TheMarkymarcio BR na área brother, é nóes. Conheci o trabalho do Ray no disco The Art of Loss (2016), o cara canta demais, tá no mesmo nível de outros gigantes do metal.
@@r.j.motajunior2761 isso aí meu brother. Amo Fates WARNING desde que os conheci em 1988, quando ouvi eles pela primeira vez foi amor a primeira vista, principalmente pela voz do Ray que pra mim, junto com o Steve Perry do journey são os maiores vocalistas do mundo. Uma pena que eles não tem o destaque que merecem pois são os pais do prog metal
@@TheMarkymarcio a primeira música que eu ouvi o Ray cantando foi a "Damaged" desse disco Art of Loss, e aquela intro matadora já me pegou brutalmente, e quando Ray começou a cantar eu falei 'pô, isso que a gente precisa no metal brother, quem dera houvessem mais assim', tamanho foi o impacto da combinação da voz do Ray com o prog, e concordo com você, ele e o Steve merecem sim mais destaque e relevância.
How the hell am I going to make it until November? This first song is fantastic. If this is an indication of whats coming, the whole album should be awesome. Jim Matheos is the best composer in progmetal.
I've been a fan since the early 80s been to many Fates shows through out the years, taking my wife and kids, my kids are all adults and they are still fans. Love this band, style, sound, tone. Etc..
@@robertfain9614 I love both bands, their styles can hardly be compared. You guys should try out Shadow Gallery, if you don't know them yet... Even more underrated than anyone on the prog scene, but so brilliant !
Again and again, 32 years w/ Ray Alder and musical excellence. Fates Warning is like the very few solid marriages in the entire world, one partner never let the other down.
Awaiting the end of one of the worst years to date, along comes a glimmer of something to brighten the senses from a vastly underated group of technicians - Scars is simply what my senses needed . Thank you
This is so AWESOME------------------------------- NEW FATES WARNING - Whole studio Album. What can be better? Not much. This sounds as good as anything ever - ever -ever. I am blown back, way back -- This opens new sky's and doors to how Beautiful FATES WARNING is- New ALBUM that is gorgeous, simply Awesome! Thank you FATES WARNING!!!!!
You have got to be kidding me. Watered down music because the singer can't hit the notes anymore. Try hearing them live lately. You'll wish you didn't.
@@flashyfrank5726 what a weak assessment of modern Fates. And you're judging a 72 minute album (their longest) based on just their singles? Hilarious. Ray sounds incredible, you do realize lots of singers struggle with their voices after 30 years in the business right? Ray sounds incredible for his age, and he focuses on what's been his strength since day 1; memorable vocal melodies. This is going to be the best album of this shitty year, just like Theories was the best release of 2016. Just wait and see how the genius Jim Matheos knocks you on your ass with this album
Lots of -supposedly- prog fans don't even know their existence and think Dream Theater invented all things progressive. Shame on them, they missed a wonderful band from Connecticut.
@@Icedsymphony7 Yeah, it's really often the case, which is why it's so surprising to me that one would be so popular and the other so ignored. It pays to be over-the-top I guess! (something I'm fine with btw hehe)
Zonder was really good, but Jarzombek is equally great for Fates' more modern sound. This is making me think a lot of Alder's side project "Engine", a really good groove/nu metal pair of albums from the early 2000s.
Great song, great band, fan since the early 80's (man I'm old!). So far probably the only good thing to come out of 2020! Can't wait for the new album. BTW, Ray is the best in the business and has been for a long time!
I'm fun of the newest era of fates warning the heaviest and more guitar oriented era from darkness in a different light and above and I'm so glad they are still at the same direction . Great sound and the vocals maybe the best in metal right now.
Great! I'm a new fan since 6 months. Always heard of them but never paid any attention before. But know I have bought all their CDs. Looking forward to this.
Fates Warning is an American progressive metal band, formed in 1982 by vocalist John Arch, guitarists Jim Matheos and Victor Arduini, bassist Joe DiBiase, and drummer Steve Zimmerman in Hartford, Connecticut. A pioneer of the progressive metal movement, Fates Warning has been referred to as one of the so-called "Big Three" of the genre, along with Queensrÿche and Dream Theater; namely, the bands who are most responsible for progressive metal's creation, development and popularization. -Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fates_Warning
Looks like Jim's keeping busy lately. Last Year Arch/Matheos,and this year Fates Warning. I wonder if we'll see another O.S.I. album in the near future? I think working with John Arch might have ignited a boost of heightened creativity that has been carrying over to his other projects.
I think they found their "sound" or "voice" around Perfect Symmetry. Older than that is great but still derivative of their influences. Amazing unheralded band IMO.
@@keesbeukelman7817 It's not a knock dude. Just like the first 3 Rush albums you can still hear a lot of their influences. Personally - I really prefer the Alder stuff. Arch can sing, but I just prefer Alder's voice. Maybe I let that influence the entire sound too much?
Superfukinheavy. And Ray's voice still sounds fantastic. As much as 2020 sucks, it brought us a bunch of goodies - The Psychotic Waltz album, Cirith Ungol's triumphal return, now this. And I hope we'll hear Joey Vera on yet another album this year.
Exactly 3 years ago listened for that new release of the last album. There are songs I like most in LDGN, but that part "We all wander...." is just tremendously great!
Damn, seems like yesterday and forever ago that I first heard FW on Metal Massacre V. Brian Slagel has been bringing us the best of the best metal since 1982. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Seriously Ray is probably the best vocalist in all prog rock. I know there’s guys who sing higher now, and while Geoff Tate is probably the most iconic, Ray has managed to reinvent his sound.. He can sound modern and still rock those old prog vocal licks, and leave you satisfied. I love Geoff but idk what happened to his voice. Rays has aged so gracefully.
been a fan since Parralells......Loooooooove this , BRILLIANT, in every aspect..........Much love for FW fron Australia.....as soon as we have normality again PLEASE TOUR DOWN UNDER.....we've been waiting a looooooong .........day and a good night time !!
We all wander With our heavy hearts disguised As a monster, the most fragile kind Afraid to close our eyes Oh, am I broken? Oh, have I sunk so deep inside? Like falling backwards into empty space And out the other side Best part for sure!
"Scars" (I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again) I won't pretend There is no end To what we learn From spite Avoiding the hurdles throughout all the wreckage Desolate world, all that's left And trying to hide all the scars that come Along with the mission I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again I'm afraid that mercy will soon turn to vengeance Left there forsaken And when you're walking alone there where shadows fall I will come for you then I stand above the smoking ruins I can pick up the pieces again We all wander With our heavy hearts disguised As a monster The most fragile kind, afraid to close our eyes Oh, am I broken? Oh, have I sunk so deep inside?

Pure Steel Records Signs Awaken Prog Metal from NY to a worldwide record deal. We toured with Fates a few years back was one of the greatest times for us. Great guys Great band. Can't wait to do it again.
I read just recently Fates Warning is talking tour dates later in 2024.
The most criminally underrated drummer playing in one of the most underrated bands.
That sadly fits.
Fantastic song!!
The drumming in this song - and on the entire album - is amazing. It just stands out.
Never heard anyone like Bobby.
Jim Matheos has such an unique and characteristic guitar tone, great to hear these guys again!
And he's such a master of multi-guitar layering
Test his solo albums or side projects. Different but quality is guaranteed.
@@peterszabo3875 Love all the OSI albums. His instrumental album, Tuesday the Sky, is awesome too.
@@williambevins Also be sure to check out the two albums he did with John Arch: Sympathetic Resonance and Winter Ethereal. Both are awesome.
@@jonathanhenderson9422 I have them both. Sympathetic Resonance is very special to me because I was dealing with cancer at the time (now cancer free) and the gloomness, heaviness, darkness and complexity of that release helped lift me out of my depression.

There has been 100s of 1000s of Metal Bands .......only one Fates Warning !!!

smasht wratchet me too
Better late than never. I actually just dug out my VHS tape of A Pleasant Shade of Grey the other day.
@@sdreschke same, bought Awaken and Master of Puppets on cassette the same day, wore that Awaken tape out completely ! Behind Rush probabylymy number two fave band !
Well they’re not underrated. They’re considered to be one of the pioneers of progressive metal.
I’ve been a Fates Warning fan since The Spectre Within. Thirty five years later and I still love their music!
been a fan since 1988.....Best of Metal Blade compilation with Damnation on it.
Same here since Spectre Within Album. Been pretty loyal ever since buying albums/CDs but sadly never saw them live. I did however meet Jim at at a music store. 🙂

I still can remember hearing Night on Brocken Metal Blade records was badass
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
I won't pretend there is no end
To what we learn from spite
Avoiding the hurdles
Throughout all the wreckage
Desolate world all that's left
And trying to hide all the scars that come
Along with the mission
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
I'm afraid that mercy
Will soon turn to vengeance
Left there forsaken
And when you're walking alone
There where shadows fall
I will come for you then
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
We all wander
With our heavy hearts disguised
As a monster, the most fragile kind
Afraid to close our eyes
Oh, am I broken?
Oh, have I sunk so deep inside?
Like falling backwards into empty space
And out the other side
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again

Looks like Jim's keeping busy lately. Last Year Arch/Matheos,and this year Fates Warning. I wonder if we'll see another O.S.I. album in the near future?
I think working with John Arch might have ignited a boost of heightened creativity that has been carrying over to his other projects.
Good one check mate v 🤩. Frank aresti solo project. Or John arch. Jimmatheos. Also. First impression s.
This Band is getting better and better with every album
Been with these lads since No Exit. Parallels will always be my favorite, but FW just keeps on pumping out great album after great album.
Personally, I kind of like Fates Warning’s newer stuff more than their older material. I’m pretty excited for this album
You're not alone.
I think they found their "sound" or "voice" around Perfect Symmetry. Older than that is great but still derivative of their influences. Amazing unheralded band IMO.
Derivative, seriously? Night on Bröcken maybe, their other 2 John Arch albums are highly original and influential!
@@keesbeukelman7817 It's not a knock dude. Just like the first 3 Rush albums you can still hear a lot of their influences. Personally - I really prefer the Alder stuff. Arch can sing, but I just prefer Alder's voice. Maybe I let that influence the entire sound too much?
@@deanhutchinson2303 Yep definitely Perfect Symmetry, that's also their second best album IMHO after A Pleasant Shade of Gray

We all wander
With our heavy hearts disguised
As a monster, the most fragile kind
Afraid to close our eyes
Oh, am I broken?
Oh, have I sunk so deep inside?
Like falling backwards into empty space
And out the other side
Best part for sure!
This sounds great. Looking forward to the rest :)
Phenomenal hook! Very catchy. It actually took me a couple of listens to get the whole vibe. Very new and yet, still classic Fates!
Yo siren live ya brother
WELL!! I'm glad I clicked on the "Crown of thorns" thumbnail on my page. I probably would have never seen this!! Greatest prog-metal band ever.
Great production interesting reverse reverb on the intro 🌙🌙🌙
Fates Warning is one of our main influences
My Point of View is WE ONLY SAY GOODBYE, needing to see Eye to Eye, our Scars are our Eleventh hour leading us to the Seven Stars. Motivated
No roto hard to sleep falling crawling. Crying dying inside to let it all out. No exit. All lives matter. It's still we the people
Can't wait for this album! I have a feeling this will be album of the year for yours truly... 😉
This song sounds so freakin tight right here man I love it.🤘😆
I haven’t liked the last couple albums but this has the old bounce I missed since Mark left. The drummer doesn’t over play on this track

"Scars"
(I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again)
I won't pretend
There is no end
To what we learn
From spite
Avoiding the hurdles throughout all the wreckage
Desolate world, all that's left
And trying to hide all the scars that come
Along with the mission
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
I'm afraid that mercy will soon turn to vengeance
Left there forsaken
And when you're walking alone there where shadows fall
I will come for you then
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
We all wander
With our heavy hearts disguised
As a monster
The most fragile kind, afraid to close our eyes
Oh, am I broken?
Oh, have I sunk so deep inside?
Like falling backwards
Into empty space and out the other side
(I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again)
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
I stand above the smoking ruins
I can pick up the pieces again
