Fates Warning - The Spectre Within

Although Fates Warning was beginning to create their own sound as a metal band, they still were not a progressive band at this point. The bombastic pounding, dueling guitars and falsetto singing defined this genre perfectly. Metal fans may enjoy this more than Night On Brocken, especially "Pirates of the Underground" and "The Apparition," but there is very little, if anything, for the progressive fan. ~ Robert Taylor, All Music Guide
