Fates Warning
Fates Warning was founded as a heavy metal band, but after a few albums, their progressive rock tendencies started to emerge. Based in Connecticut, USA, the band's current lineup consists of Jim Matheos (Guitar), Ray Alder (Vocals) Joey Vera (Bass), and Mark Zonder (Drums). Their first three albums are best known for lead singer John Arch's unusual vocal approach, and the lyrics deal mainly with fantasy themes. John Arch left after the third album and a new vocalist Ray Alder joined the band. Thereafter the lyrics took a more introspective turn. Their later works (post 1989) go more in a progressive rock direction. While retaining elements of their metal heritage, Fates Warning grew increasingly complex, with much longer tracks and interesting interwoven melodic elements added after they developed a progressive edge. They merged their love of Yes and Rush, by combining elements of pure metal, classically inspired crescendos and interludes with jazz fusion like chops. Fates Warning has been largely responsible for the infusion of progressive thinking into heavy metal music, despite never attaining mainstream appeal, but a loyal following amongst prog fans. Fates Warning now has 12 studio albums to their name, namely: Night on Brocken (1984) The Spectre Within (1985) Awaken the Guardian (1986) No Exit (1988) Perfect Symmetry (1989) Parallels (1991) Inside Out (1994) Chasing Time (compilation) (1995) A Pleasant Shade of Gray (1997) Still Life (live) (1998) Disconnected (2000) FWX (2004)
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Looks great and quick delivery
very good quality, wasn’t broken or anything and was a good gag gift !
I gave it to her today. And she loved it said it was her to the T
The Printing wasn't very sharp, but it's good enough.
It was a surprise gift for someone and she absolutely loved it!
This was sent as a gift to my grandson, who lives in another state, so I never saw it. However I asked him as follows: "Just checking ... their request for a review shows an aquamarine mug ... it was supposed to be purple (eggplant, they called it). Was it purple?" Then he said: "It was purple! And thank you I love it haha Sent from my iPhone"
Shipment arrived quickly and in great condition. I know my custom mug will be a crowd pleaser when my girlfriend opens it up for Xmas.
Soaking is my favorite activity, glad I got a mug for it 😙
It DIDNT break :D
so happy you were able to put my unique word "Obergrossescheinehund" onto the new yellow mug. The yellow mug and black print make it easy for the words to be seen.
This is made by my friend i love it
Imagine not buying one of these. 🤢🗑🤡= non-buyer. Couldn't be me. 😎
It was the best thing I could have asked for
I mollywopped someone with it and it didn’t break. Nice
Product was as advertised and arrived pretty quickly too! The person loved their gift!
The "Pink Flamingo" colour with white text on a pink background is the best selection for this fine phrase mug. May I suggest you also correct the misspelling of "delightfully" in the default option for a timeless gift.
As always, a great gift.
It looks great. I couldn't have been happier
It’s a mug I would never find in a souvenir shop. I’m a legend in my own home.
I am very please with the mug. Thank you!
