Arch/Matheos
As the band name clearly states, this projects pairs the incomparable
former
Fates Warning
vocalist John Arch with current FW guitarist Jim Matheos, with several
FW folks making appearances as well.
Vocally, you're getting exactly what you expect -- no one sounds like
John Arch, his vocals haven't wavered one bit from his 80's heyday
with FW.
Musically, this is adventurous progressive metal, though not exactly in
the vein of either past or present Fates.
The performances are uniformly top-notch as one would expect, leading to
a no-brainer recommendation for prog metal listeners.
