    John Arch sounds even better than ever. The night at the Webster was the greatest night of my life. I think John is finally starting to realize how special he is and how much of an impact he has made on this world. And I love each and every backing member of this band! Jim Matheos, Joey Vera, Frank Aresti and Bobby Jarzombek are all amazing!!

    I don't typically throw around cheesy comments like this, but John Arch's heart and soul were clearly in this album. Simply beautiful, perfect music.

    Diehard fan here that just died.....now this is Metal heaven....never missed a show and I certainly pray they bring this live...John always was and always will be my favorite singer....whenever I need to learn something about vocals I listen to Fates Warning... both versions are learning tools in every musical aspect...John and Ray are my vocal teachers for life

    @zara72370 9 років тому +49

    Absolutely Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't stop with just this ONE record. Progressive Metal needs this right now. It's time for another album. Jon Arch is easily one of the most underrated singers of all time. He certainly is one of my musical heroes. \m/ \m/, 2 horns way up in the sky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • @pedroordonez5969
      @pedroordonez5969 9 років тому +5

      Heather Ward Agreed!! More Arch/Matheos/Aresti/Jarzombek/Vera!! Why so many people hate on Jon's voice is beyond me.

    • @pedroordonez5969
      @pedroordonez5969 9 років тому +3

      ***** John also challenges Jim Matheos to write this amazing music. Same band minus John Arch delivered an awesome record ( "Darkness In A Different Light") but that one is not as musically rich as this release.

    • @aldersmoke1
      @aldersmoke1 9 років тому +1

      Pedro Ordonez Thing is, Matheos wrote most of the music with Alder in mind. He brought it to Arch after Alder was either unable or unwilling to start working on it. I agree with you that Darkness isn't quite as interesting musically, but I think that's because Matheos kinda blew his wad on this one. And it's still damn good; I'm frankly all for a world where we get Fates albums with both singers.

    • @filthypigdaddy
      @filthypigdaddy 9 років тому

      +aldersmoke1 Actually only a few of the songs were written beforehand.

    • @Metalology2011
      @Metalology2011 8 років тому +1

      The first three songs were intended to be Fates songs. The rest of them were written after John got involved.

  • @keithburchart6419

    Many years of not singing.....not a minute lost! Thanks John for satisfying our craving! What an awesome guy for putting his family first for all those years. Youa re a gentleman with character and integrity. Hats off to you sir!

    • @illegal_space_alien
      @illegal_space_alien 7 місяців тому

      I get it that he did put his family first, and should be commended for such. Still one of the great what-ifs in metal... What if he hadn't turned down Dream Theater when they were starting up and wanted him as their original lead singer? We could've had a lot more time and albums with him to enjoy. But these new songs sound great!

  • @aldersmoke1
    @aldersmoke1 13 років тому +5

    This song should be huge. If the music industry was remotely functional anymore, this'd get radio play somewhere and catch on like wildfire.

    Cry me a river
    That flows through fields of dreams
    Through the wings of the nightingale
    And twilight memories
    An angel's gentle kiss
    Of lifeless breath within your mind
    So beautiful the symphony, disjointed and sublime
    Close your eyes and dream your life away, away
    Forever and a day, queens of the May
    Beckon you to dream your life away
    See though the mirror
    How it seems ever clearer now
    Translucent and so surreal
    My scars just fade away
    A passion play of shadows
    Sings a midnight serenade
    The rush of guilt for all my thoughts
    Comes to light as another day
    Close your eyes and dream your life away, away
    This abstract masquerade in disarray
    You're the pawn, so dream your life away
    The willow tree, I engraved your name
    A thousand tears, it still remains
    Cold November rains wash your blood from my veins
    And as the hours meld into the years
    Windows to my soul reveal
    The answer to my prayers
    Is not the dream, but to believe
    Close your eyes and dream your life away, away
    Forever and a day, queens of the May
    Beckon you to dream your life away
    Close your eyes and dream your life away, away
    This abstract masquerade in disarray
    You're the pawn, so dream your life away

    3:27 is where John drops some jedi-knight vocal mixing skills. Nothing short of sheer brilliance.

  • @tenzin682
    @tenzin682 9 років тому +7

    Second day of giving this song a real good listen. I'm hooked!!! I'm a Ray Alder and FW guy, but always loved John's voice. I'm hooked!!

  • @CanMetan
    @CanMetan 10 років тому +9

    This song delivers a clear point with it's lyrics.
    When people have problems with their lives, instead of changing their circumstances and acting upon them, they simply take shelter in comforting thoughts and religious doctrine in particular, for comforting themselves.
    In the end, he says "Sanctuary I can't face another day, So I'll dream my life away."
    So we should act upon our problems before they become problems for our belief systems and on our character. We should be active about our ambitions, wishes and problems. For staying passive, daydreaming about things, will get absolutely nothing done and we will only delude ourselves.
    This song is a good reminder for me.

    It amazes me that over two decades have passed and John's voice has not changed. He still one of the most instantly identifiable and unique voices in Prog and Metal past or present. I've always loved his voice.

    This video continues to give me chills, I love how everyone is completely in their own little world while playing (or singing)... This Arch/Matheos album is easily one of the best progressive metal works of the decade in my humble opinion, and I would be absolutely stoked to see another album from the group!

    whatever anyone thinks of this... remember Arch created/defined this vocal style and ruled it since 1984.. NOT many artists (in any genre) can wear thet win.
    personally i am into different styles now but 1 word from Arch and i get instant goosebumps and are right back in the mid/late 80+ rocking out in new territory :-)

    Actually, selling furniture or whatever John's been doing has arguably been the best thing he could do for his voice. He hasn't been straining nightly like many of his peers.

  • @tenzin682
    @tenzin682 9 років тому +9

    Why do they have a totally different feel than when they do Fates? John still has a great voice! The more I watch this video I'm really starting to like it. Been listening to FW since Perfect Symmetry. The guys are just geniuses. Ray and John are two of the best singers ever in metal. And totally underrated! Just like FW, and Jim Matheos!!

    John Arch is special..Matheos know that,we know that..I grew up with Fates and still after all those years they seem wonderfull..i will always listen to their music..John for me is the most influential vocalist of the 80's and 90's no matter if he wasnt in the spotlight like Ray Alder was..That makes him even more special.cause his voice is a gift from God..!!!!

    Yeah, he's indeed great. I checked out some of his older stuff, and you're right... his dexterity is incredible. I thought it was unusual the way he hit those cymbals behind him in some of those older clips - I don't think I've ever seen that before. He's certainly becoming one of my favorites; my all-time favorite drummer being Gavin Harrison.

    Jim Matheos has said multiple times in interviews that He was ready to record Sympathetic Resonance as the next Fates Warning record with Ray Alder but Ray had other commitments and the opportunity to reunite with John Arch was there, so they took the opportunity. Supposedly a new Fates record with Alder is in the works and should be out later this year.

    @abbysynththirst-n-howl3069 8 років тому

    Fates are like 2 different bands regarding Arch/Alder. What many of you are forgetting, or maybe don't realize is that Arch's voice couldn't handle the touring schedule.
    He was losing his voice due to the high demands and nightly shows. So, HE quit. Ray stepped in and did a remarkable job. But, what made Arch a valuable member was his lyrics.
    His lyrics are SO intelligently written and he expounds on many subjects in such poetic ways. Ray never really was a lyric writer. Matheos wrote mostly everything for him at first.
    No arguments please. Just read the credits on albums like "No Exit" and "Perfect Symmetry." It's in black and white.

    • @ianmkeogh
      @ianmkeogh 8 років тому +1

      Abby Synth Thirst-n-Howl ... according to Arch, the band was having meetings without him (and when that happens, you could imagine the topic of discussion), and agreed to remove him from the band and find a replacement. I'm not sure there's been an interview where Arch stated that he "quit", only that, after the initial shock of it wore off, that he felt peace with the path that he ended up taking (saying it's worked out well for him and for Ray, who are actually good friends)
      I'll agree with you on the lyrical part, though. Arch's poetic weavings have truly been missed 😕
