    Fates Warning is one of the most criminally under rated bands of modern times! The vocals, the drumming, the guitar work is absolutely magnificent! I've listened to them for decades and turned many a friend on to them.

    Fates has been one of my all time favorite bands since I first heard them in the 80s! And great people too...a few years back I bought the "meet the band" passes when they were opening for Queensryche. We showed up on time, but were told by the idiot security guard that the meet the band wasn't for another hour...so we came back an hour later and were told that we missed it! I asked to speak to the manager, who went and talked to the band, and they let me and my son (8 years old at the time) come in and be the only audience for their sound check. WOW! They played "At Fates Hands", which I had never heard them do live. After the sound check they all came to say hello, and Ray hung out with us for a bit even though he was struggling with a bad cold. Amazing musicians; even better people! :-)

      Terry Brown also produced Voivod's 'Angel Rat'. Imagine Rush's 'Natural Science' only busier and a little heavier. The Prow and Freedoom are my favorites on that one. Worth a few minutes of your time to listen. They put extra effort into the lyrics on that album. It shows.

    Point Of View
    Looking out on a familiar scene
    There's no agreement in what we see
    Your perception lacks clarify
    And my perspective is blinding me
    Side by side
    Divided they stand
    Parallel lives running parallel with YOU
    To the point where our horizons divide
    My opinion is just a point of view
    And your position is the other side
    Caught up in our convictions we forget
    How our senses distort things we see
    We can't accept our differences
    But we can always disagree
    Side by side
    Divided they stand
    Parallel lives running parallel with YOU
    To the point where our horizons divide
    My opinion is just a point of view
    And your position is the other side
    Where I stand is not so far from YOU
    A different opinion is just another point of view
    Parallel lives running parallel with YOU
    To the point where our horizons divide
    My opinion is just a point of view
    And your position is the other side
    Parallel lives running parallel with YOU
    To the point where our horizons divide
    My opinion is just a point of view
    And your position is the other side
    Parallel lives running parallel with YOU
    To the point where our horizons divide
    My opinion is just a point of view
    And your position is the other side

    Fates Warning is amazingly talented. I've loved this band since Perfect Symmetry. I was blessed to have been able to see them in June. Quite frankly, I don't know how Ray maintains his awesome voice. I wasn't aware, until recently that he fronts 3 bands. I grabbed my usual spot, front row center and Ray was gracious enough to come and meet my Son and his girlfriend. Bobby was drumming on the Theories of flight tour and was already hanging with my Son. Awesome band! I always try to support the band's that I really love by buying their CD'S and attending their concert's. FATES FOREVER!

    This band is unique. In my opinion the best one. Musically they are fantastic.

    Captain Beyond, Crimson Glory, Empyria, Fates Warning, Genesis, Hawkwind, and King Crimson. Definitely some of the best within the progressive genre.

    Man, I used to sing with this band, they were the heroes of the day (like, play it and sing on a crappy mic over it with them) These guys are STILL in the top 5 for such clean real vocals, it's totally believable. Tell your friends what a man sounds like. Rock on. *goes back to bass*
