Long Day Good Night

Description

For over 35 years, Fates Warning has had a formidable presence in progressive metal, helping to shape and animate the genre without ever compromising their integrity or losing their relevance. They return in 2020 with Long Day Good Night, the most epic and longest album of their career. Mixed by Joe Barresi. "The musical styles we wrote distinguish this record from the rest of our catalog," says singer Ray Alder. We tried to give the listener a lot of different things to listen to, as opposed to an album where every song sounds the same." As such, the album is a kind of rollercoaster ride. The album also includes appearances by touring guitarist Mike Abdow, who contributed a few solos, plus Porcupine Tree/The Pineapple Thief drummer Gavin Harrison plays on "When Snow Falls," and "Under The Sun" sees the band incorporate a full string section for the first time. The result of all the work put in. It's undeniable that all parties involved are invested, and with Long Day Good Night, Fates Warning is once again taking a bold step into the next phase of their exhilarating career.
