that's because most people don't get real music, its over their heads I mean just pay attention all you hear is hip hop and other talentless filth. you start constructing sentences and putting it into major cliff the majority are just lost. to complex for their piss pour Little under educated brains,
Fates Warning has always been about intelligent and thoughtful metal music. No gimmicks and nonsense that most metal bands present nowadays, and no mid life crisis or insecurities that their peers suffer from. That's what makes them a rare gem in metal. Really looking forward to the new album.
Oh yeah , they didn´t had these ridiculous periods of losing their identity like Queensryche did . fortunately Queenryche is back on track with ToddLa Torre on vocals .
Whenever i hear FW.. I got the goosebumps.. Drum Grooves, Bass , Awesome guitar melodies and THOSE VOCALSSSSSSSSSS man... FW is a totally complete band that should be praised more.
From the heart, and not afraid to speak at a high emotional level, FW perseveres through the ages, yet humble through it all, masters of an island in the stream.
I was really pleasantly surprised after hearing their new album. Ray sounds pretty much the same that he did about twenty years ago. He may not be able to hit every single ridiculously high note that he could back then, but his voice still sounds great and everyone else is in top form too! I haven't heard many of their albums, but this and a few others have made me want to go out and listen to all of their stuff. Great job, guys!
Yeah. You can definitely tell Ray has aged a lot when you hear him live, but, from what I've heard, he quit smoking and has been working on his voice a lot lately. He still sounds good, but that's studio magic for you. However, I haven't heard him live recently so he may be much better. I still really respect Ray, though. Much more than some other vocalists out there. This is a great tune.
This is a really fantastic Fates Warning tune. Far more straightforward than most things they write, but melodically, this is really inspired. Ray Alders voice conveys much emotion on this one. Nice to hear a song that isn't stretched out just for the sake trying to make it sound more prog. Beautiful.
Great song!!!! Trading in Gibson guitars with BC Rich parts to PRS guitars. From Jacksons to classical guitars from power cords to melodic melodies,electric drums to the standard double bass. Give these guys the tools and they will produce outstanding music. From Arch to Alder,Zimmerman to Zonder,Aresti,Matheos,DiBiase. EVERY MEMBER OF THIS GROUP NOW AND THEN I APPLAUD U ALL since 1986.
Firefly There, in the silence of the night I see you shine Drifting down to me, drift down to me Is this how it's supposed to be? Will you stay, will you go? Again, this time, how far? Then you take, and you're gone No longer need to wait here anymore Fly, far away.. I won't regret at all Not asking you to stay I can't make you understand As I close my empty hand And as I stand here Watching stars go shooting by A thought comes to me, it comes to me This is how it's supposed to be Fly, far away I won't regret at all Not asking you to stay I can't make you understand As I close my empty hand And as night turns to day Alone now I walk away And as time changes Your light fades into the gray Will you stay, will you go? Again, this time, how far? Then you take, and you're gone No longer need to wait here anymore Fly, far away I won't regret at all Not asking you to stay I can't make you understand As I close my empty hand
They don´t have the same big and pyrotechnic stage production that DT brings on their concerts, but musically talking, FW represents to me the essencial of the progressive rock/metal. By far Fates is my favourite since i don´t know, a bunch of years, they´re impressive!
***** prob best. but im kinda out of touch; these guys are untouchable imo though - just listen to sympathetic resonance, only difference is vocalists. I prefer Arch, but alder has his own unique style as well.
I am from my heart a serious music lover, I have too have a dose once a day at least, at 60 im still a metal head, can't help it,,, I am so so glad that there are bands out here like Fates, Evergrey, Dream theater and more, firefly by far is one of my all time favorite metal junky fixes,,, just soothes my soul and captivates my heart... keep it coming guys, when im 80 I wanna hear more of this kinda stuff and I need you to do it..... lots of love from Austin TX,,,,,
Awesome, just one more Masterpiece to add to the list to a severely underrated group. Fates Warning needs to be recognized for their on going talent as the extraordinary musicians that they are.
What The Water Wants are one of those rare releases that you listen to from start to finish. Absolutely love it! Flawless in my opinion. I do wish he’d put out solo merch like hoodies and car decals.
Saw them in Conneticut November 22nd 2013, I've loved them forever, it was surreal especially seeing Ray live, his voice amazing and untouchable, their music lyrics unbelievable....
Dream Theater was signed to a major record label in the mid-90's. Fates Warning was always with Metal Blade, except for "Perfect Symmetry" which was on Metal Blade and Enigma. Without the push of a huge, worldwide, record label a band will achieve a following, but it will not be as big as say Priest, Maiden, or DT. But, this probably allowed Fates to write more progressively than they could have on a major label.
Fates Warning is my 2nd favorite metal band until Queensryche get their shit together and Ray Alder is my favorite metal lead singer.He's a beautiful man with a beautiful voice.
gudalpesanz Well said. Geoff is the voice of Queensryche. Losing Chris was one thing. Firing Geoff killed Queensryche and formed two new bands. The voice on one end and the music on the other.
***** gudalpesanz Geoff Tate used to be one of the artists I most looked up to in this world, right up there with Neil Peart. Tate is now a fat, washed up hack. He's lost his voice through ignorance and abuse but instead of trying to resurrect it, he just makes the guys play in a lower key, speaks parts, whatever. His larger crime though was taking over the machinery of the band, bringing in outside writers to produce mediocre crap and market it under the Queensryche name. He's now in a downward spiral and it won't be long before he can't bring the rest of the band with him anymore.
I agree with you about Ray having an amazing voice. As far as Queensryche, I love the band, but can't stand Geoff as the 90s started to drag on. I even respected him until it started to become more apparent that he wasn't caring about how his performances were, how his voice sounded, and after he started to treat the rest of the band and the fans like crap. I'm a musician myself and I can say that a person isn't worth respecting if they can't treat others the way they want to be treated. I personally like Todd's voice. He's different than Geoff and has his own style. The new album Queensryche is probably my favorite that they did since Promised Land. I did like some aspects from Hear in the Now Frontier to maybe Mindcrime II, but I still couldn't respect Geoff after he started to be a control hog about everything. I respect your opinion, though.
I immediately purchased the album (+bonus CD) a few months following the worldwide release in 2014. Great band, and they need to keep going for many more years and not go into the long hiatus of nearly 10 years following 2005's FWX (despite Ray being involved with his side projects Redemption, etc.) When it is the case of Fates Warning I am gonna go for their releases without hesitation!!
Very good song/album..Been a fan since Night on Broken but really liked the with No Exit forward. I hope they keep this level of playing and song writing.

Wow !! as a shredder from the 80's I've never heard these guys or if I did I was so far up Pantera's ass I didn't give'm a chance. Could anyone point me in the direction of good guitar albums from these guys? I know asking which was the best albums will be responded with a wide range of opinions but I'm sure there has to be some agreeance as to the major players. I even like the voice as its not quite as "different" as Labries
+Sindy Bernal Had a great time at the show and they sounded awesome! This song sounds much heavier live. They surprised me by doing UFO's "Natural Thing" for an encore. They are one of my favorite bands too.
I dont know about that, its definitely more commercially accessible than most but still they arent played mainstream regardless of the fact that every album they have made is excellent
7 years later and only 300k views? A lot of people missing out on an incredible band.
Very sad that lots of people listen shit like rap instead of this masterpiece
I agree. They are highly underrated. I am a loyal fan. Fates Warning as a band are amazing. And they have a lot of hidden gem tracks.🤘
@@TerrenceBowden-i4k So true. They have lots of hidden gems.
that's because most people don't get real music, its over their heads I mean just pay attention all you hear is hip hop and other talentless filth. you start constructing sentences and putting it into major cliff the majority are just lost. to complex for their piss pour Little under educated brains,

+Omair Sheikh a GEM in metal? soo like quartz among diamonds?
+Zacharie Roitner Ever thought of doing stand up?
Oh yeah , they didn´t had these ridiculous periods of losing their identity like Queensryche did . fortunately Queenryche is back on track with ToddLa Torre on vocals .
you dont now shit about metal by saying that
Omair Sheikh I couldn't agree more.
Whenever i hear FW.. I got the goosebumps.. Drum Grooves, Bass , Awesome guitar melodies and THOSE VOCALSSSSSSSSSS man... FW is a totally complete band that should be praised more.
I hate it when people compare Fates and DT. Both are phenomenal bands. But, let's not forgot that Dream Theater was inspired by Fates Warning.
Nah, DT kinda sucks, They prove that great musicians don't necessarily add up to a great band
Jack Hammer That's very subjective.
DT are boring AF
Why compare? DT is fucking boring...
Geez, I didn't realize there were so many DT haters here.
From the heart, and not afraid to speak at a high emotional level, FW perseveres through the ages, yet humble through it all, masters of an island in the stream.
I love that song (Island in the Steam).
My favorite old Prog band is now my new favorite Prog band again!
I was really pleasantly surprised after hearing their new album. Ray sounds pretty much the same that he did about twenty years ago.

Well that happends a lot of musicians do drink and smoke they dont take care of themselves ray is a good singer
Yeah. You can definitely tell Ray has aged a lot when you hear him live, but, from what I've heard, he quit smoking and has been working on his voice a lot lately. He still sounds good, but that's studio magic for you. However, I haven't heard him live recently so he may be much better. I still really respect Ray, though.

Started to listen FW when i was teenager, now i am close to 40 and this guys make me feel young again ! Yesss !

Awesome, Great, Wonderful.....Song.
Fates Warning is one of our main influences.
Firefly
There, in the silence of the night
I see you shine
Drifting down to me, drift down to me
Is this how it's supposed to be?
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time, how far?
Then you take, and you're gone
No longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away..
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as I stand here
Watching stars go shooting by
A thought comes to me, it comes to me
This is how it's supposed to be
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as night turns to day
Alone now I walk away
And as time changes
Your light fades into the gray
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time, how far?
Then you take, and you're gone
No longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
Saw them with Dream Theater in 93' or 94'. They killed it, blew away Dream Theater. Awesome live!
They don´t have the same big and pyrotechnic stage production that DT brings on their concerts, but musically talking, FW represents to me the essencial of the progressive rock/metal. By far Fates is my favourite since i don´t know, a bunch of years, they´re impressive!
Lets not get carried away.
I will be seeing them for the first time tonight.
I totally believe that!!!!
Song of the year for me!!
Fates Warning is one of only a handful of bands that can make a 7/8 time riff sound awesome..
Jim Matheos is a prodigy as Mark Zonder, Ray Alder and Joey Vera
Great song from one of 2013's best albums! Fates Warning rules! \m/
***** prob best. but im kinda out of touch; these guys are untouchable imo though - just listen to sympathetic resonance, only difference is vocalists. I prefer Arch, but alder has his own unique style as well.
One of my favorite singers🤘A LEGENDARY SINGER🤘
Beautiful! Bravo!
this song is among my faves.. love love them..!!
I am from my heart a serious music lover, I have too have a dose once a day at least, at 60 im still a metal head, can't help it,,, I am so so glad that there are bands out here like Fates, Evergrey, Dream theater and more, firefly by far is one of my all time favorite metal junky fixes,,, just soothes my soul and captivates my heart... keep it coming guys, when im 80 I wanna hear more of this kinda stuff and I need you to do it..... lots of love from Austin TX,,,,,
Fates Warning w Ray Alder is the best..cant wait for 2015 tour AWESOME
Imo.. one of the foundations of progressive metal
Awesome, just one more Masterpiece to add to the list to a severely underrated group. Fates Warning needs to be recognized for their on going talent as the extraordinary musicians that they are.
Went to the show, my wife and I, second time seeing them, f'n awesome!!! Nice long set. Sounded awesome, great set. Thanks guys!!! Fates rules!!!
Ray Alder.... the best voice in music period.
One of the Finest und Sutely f. Best Bands in the Whole World = Univetse , Real Big Stars❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊😅😮😢🎉😂❤😊
Is it even possible making so great songs?
+lIllIllIll I think FW's back catalogue answers that question
think about how many ''so great'' songs they have made...mindfuck
Still possible in 2k22
Beautiful music!!! My favourite album of 2013!!! Fates Rules!!!!
What The Water Wants are one of those rare releases that you listen to from start to finish. Absolutely love it! Flawless in my opinion. I do wish he’d put out solo merch like hoodies and car decals.
What a Gem of a Song!
Fates warning's magic never diminishes
Awesome song! Awesome band!!!
Saw them in Conneticut November 22nd 2013, I've loved them forever, it was surreal especially seeing Ray live, his voice amazing and untouchable, their music lyrics unbelievable....
Awesome song, this is the best in the world and they just keep getting better!!! Unreal!!! See you on Oct. 11, 2015. Yeeeeeah!!!!

Love Ray Alder..the best can't wait..oct 23 in Dallas Tx @Trees venue.
Patrick Puffer Fates Warning w Ray Alder..hadn't made album in 9 years omg did top notch come back w Darkness in a different light.. brilliant..xo

FATES WARNING has never fallen short. Ever!!🤘
Still... this band is timeless.They stay them too. I like.
Awesome tour with Queensyche 2019!
By far the best band in the world!!!And great guys also.Ive been a fan since the first albumm and will be forever!Thanx guys
Wow Fates Warning. Aged like fine wine.
Fates Warning is my 2nd favorite metal band until Queensryche get their shit together and Ray Alder is my favorite metal lead singer.He's a beautiful man with a beautiful voice.
Queensryche has their shit together now. Check out the Todd La Torre version.
TODD LA TORRE IS NOT THE LEAD SINGER OF QUEENSRYCHE! He's an evil imposter attempting to sound like THE GREAT GEOFF TATE!
gudalpesanz Well said. Geoff is the voice of Queensryche. Losing Chris was one thing. Firing Geoff killed Queensryche and formed two new bands. The voice on one end and the music on the other.

VERY COOL!!!
Great song!Fates forever!Greetings from Greece
There, in the silence of the night
I see you shine
Drifting down to me, drift down to me
Is this how it's supposed to be?
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time, how far?
Then you take, and you're gone
No longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as I stand here
Watching stars go shooting by
A thought comes to me, it comes to me
This is how it's supposed to be
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close my empty hand
And as night turns to day
Alone now I walk away
And as time changes
Your light fades into the gray
Will you stay, will you go?
Again, this time, how far?
Then you take, and you're gone
No longer need to wait here anymore
Fly, far away
I won't regret at all
Not asking you to stay
I can't make you understand
As I close these empty hands
I
gonna go see them on march19 in Tulsa.
Fates Warning rules,if you guys are callin it quits we need a proper farewell tour.
U said it brother.. Nice

no exit, by far one of my favorite albums of all time
The spectre within. John Arch was the vocalist though
perfect symmetry
Cool thanx brada
If you dig Ray Alder's voice you may want to check out the work he did with band Redemption.
I Love! My family and culture!
Awesome
Fates Warning is great band 😉
Ray Alder San Antonio boy home grown .Coming back to SA in October!
Yes the best ..hands down ray alder..can't wait oct 23 Dallas Tx
+Sindy Bernal I will be going to the show on Nov. 1 at the Whiskey, Hollywood CA. Can't wait!
Jeff Balaban excellent show fantastic!!
+Sindy Bernal Had a great time at the show and they sounded awesome! This song sounds much heavier live. They surprised me by doing UFO's "Natural Thing" for an encore. They are one of my favorite bands too.
Jeff Balaban awesome it was fantastic show..but no encore UFO..ended w pont if view
Great.This album is one of the better albums of the Fates Warning band.
I dont know about that, its definitely more commercially accessible than most but still they arent played mainstream regardless of the fact that every album they have made is excellent
love Fates
DREAM T... GET LOST , FATES ARE IN THE TOWN HARD AND SLOW!!!! THE REAL PROGG METAL!!!!!!
Just be happy that BOTH bands are still relevant ... though I lost interest in DT after Kevin Moore left... I still respect them.
