I picked up my copy of the new monster album by Arch / Matheos today and have to state very clearly after three complete listens through, it will be hard to beat as my album of the year for 2011. While I'm really also into DT's new disc, "Sympathetic Resonance" is something special for me.
As a young teenager growing up a town over from the home town of Fates Warning during their developmental years, it's needless to say I was enormously influenced in my early forays into guitar by the great guitar work of Jim Matheos and those remarkable early Fates Warning album with John Arch singing on them. I can't tell you my disappointment when I heard the news that John had left Fates Warning, while I eventually accepted and came to appreciate Ray Alder and his work with both FW and Redemption, John will always be the singer I think of when the words Fates Warning are uttered in my presence.
While I won't go into a track by track review, I'll simply say it really is THAT good!. Let me digest it for a few days and I'll write up a proper review.
If you get a chance - buy it, you will not be disappointed.
