I too don't really enjoy any other Fates Warning albums, this one appeals to that side of me that loves Jag Panzer and old Satan's Host and Helloween. just great oldschool heavy metal with a little hint of the prog and power metal that would come in the 90's.Eric Paradoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258945055627718491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647347951643678479.post-36907232481146158532009-01-28T14:06:00.000-08:002009-01-28T14:06:00.000-08:00Shouldn't the "Steely" be called "The Iommi"?Shouldn't the "Steely" be called "The Iommi"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647347951643678479.post-58352058676587299452009-01-28T12:56:00.000-08:002009-01-28T12:56:00.000-08:00Couldn't open it either.I'm gonna try again.My boy...Couldn't open it either.<BR/>I'm gonna try again.<BR/>My boy Jay has been calling me out for awhile now for not having any Fate's Warning.<BR/><BR/>Best.

I like most of their other records, especially 'No Exit' (my first FW album), but I gotta agree with ya, this one rules. <BR/><BR/>A million years ago at my college radio station, I found a taped interview with John Arch from 1987. They were already recording 'No Exit'. He sounded genuinely excited about the record: he already had most of the lyrics written, and as I hazily recall, had even recorded some vocals. Why Matheos sent him packing, I'll never figure out.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11342128832508476425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647347951643678479.post-12716191135659145472009-01-27T01:25:00.000-08:002009-01-27T01:25:00.000-08:00A TRUE masterpiece this one.
