This album is timeless - It is a Master piece of music~. This needs to be in the music archives for future musicians to learn from. Fates Warning have given all of us Mark Zonder (The Master of percusion) with master understanding of Matheous is Brilliant. Fates Warning is Legend.
Enjoy Mr Zonder. Drummers like him are rare. My dad stole some of his playing. Bonzo is still his favorite drummer!! Thank you Mark for impacting our lives. My dad played just as hard as Mark. May metal live forever
Zonder is a very good (excellent!) drummer, but Bonzo was-is for ever TheBEST!!! Because it is all about how the drummer plays the music, and Bonzo was TheMASTER of it!
Don't forget Watchtower's Control and Resistance, and Cynic's Focus, they started a completely new subgenre. Regarding's FW albums, I think that Perfect Symmetry infleunced much more people (through DT) than APSOG... But APSOG is probably their best album.
I was watching this back in 1997 wit a bunch of friends To get a group of people to watch a live video in absolute silence is a feat of quality ...to then have that same group of people remain totally speechless for another minute after the video clearly ended, that's a whole other level
fw are my favourites as well. Seems like they where always too great and too artistic to deal with business , marketing and all the shit that sadly converts art to a product...
I saw them on this tour in Fremont, CA . Portnoy from DT hung out with us in line, band went on late. Ray signed my APSOG sleeve & tour shirt to boot. Good times! One of my all time favorites cover to cover.
ive been fortunate enough to have seen this tour Twice! i can tell you that it was incredible both times spot on tight and the production crew was on there A game! i will never forget how incredible both shows were thank you Fates warning
Saw this live around this timeframe - in Detroit (Harpo's maybe?) - I was just amazed as was is note for note perfect from the CD... Fates live show is one of the best I've ever seen. Being a drummer, I was awestruck at Zonder the entire time!
I remember this tour. I was a few months shy of being 21 and it was an over 21 show. Had to beg the bouncer to let me in. He ultimately did as long as I stayed in a specific area and didnt buy alcohol. My first Fates show and it was awesome.
Por muito tempo cometi o erro de achar o Iron Maiden a melhor banda. Fates Waning é perfeito, magnifico, maravilhoso. For a long time I made the mistake of thinking Iron Maiden was the best band. Fates Waning is perfect, magnificent, wonderful
Saw this show at The Troc in Philly 8/10/97. Such and amazing and flawless performance. That show made me a Fates fan for life \m/ \m/ ..... Hit the like button. Also saw the Dream Theater - Scenes From A Memory tour at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby. Another Epic performance!
Anyone know where this concert was shot? I was friends with the band Divine Regale, who opened for Fates during the northeast portion of this tour. I saw them at Spotlights in Weymouth, MA. Great show! Got to meet Ray and the guys after and hang on the bus for a bit. Great night!
@@flashyfrank5726 You realize that I said "my favorite singer," right? The matter is truly subjective. So, I'd love to hear how your going to quantify and come up with a logical scale of vocalist standards criteria. LOL Your statement is nonsensical, and your conclusion illogical. Keep trolling, maybe you'll catch another one like yourself. haha ;)
Top 5 metal concept albums of all time? 1. Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime 2. King Diamond -Abigail 3. Fates Warning - A Pleasant Shade of Gray. 4. Savatage: Streets (i'm gonna call it by the real title it was supposed to be.) 5. Iron Maiden: Seventh Son of a Seventh Son Feel free to respond with your top 5 :)

Fates Warning is Legend.
It’s definitely in my archives. Vinyl as well

Mark Zonder has a You Tube Channel where he does play alongs to Fates Warning and Warlord.
Damn right. He is the man still. Love Fates since Night on Brocken
I love this band
So do I, amazing band!
This album, along with DT's Scenes From A Memory are what defines progressive metal as a whole. Absolute masterpieces!
And rush moving pictures.
Don't forget Watchtower's Control and Resistance, and Cynic's Focus, they started a completely new subgenre. Regarding's FW albums, I think that Perfect Symmetry infleunced much more people (through DT) than APSOG... But APSOG is probably their best album.
👍👍
who cares about DT the are synthetic metal , Fates are great just people, not robots like dt

Perfection, precision and refined arrangements, my fav album.
Why don’t people ever talk about Mark Zonder? Freakishly amazing drummer. Such a great band.

No words to describe this masterpiece. One of most important albuns of my all entre life
This album, and this band, were, and are, mind expanding to me.
All the planets mustve been in alignment when this band got together. There arent enough words....💧
One of the most beautiful albums of the last century ......
Music that no other band can make..just them..!!!!!!
Probably the most underrated singer ever!
FW has been one of my top 10 bands, I found this album to be their best to date; why are they so underrated?
It has one of the cleanest, most crisp production I've ever heard, too. The album really is a masterpiece in all respects.
Because this is music that requires patience and appreciation for something else that a catchy riff?
fw are my favourites as well. Seems like they where always too great and too artistic to deal with business , marketing and all the shit that sadly converts art to a product...
There not. At least in Greece. Love you all
One of the most artistic piece of music ever created...
Mark zonder.one of my favorite prog drummers.
After 25 years still... Pleasant... Monumental... Above
saw this show in San Antonio and Houston... so damn good!
Mark Zonder great drummer... Underrated

One of my all time favorite band everything they did from the begining until now his amazing
OMG I had never seen this one before, can't believe I had missed this perfection of a live show! Everybody at the top of their game. No words.
Zonder on drums.is a major influence to me.like Neil Peart.and Mike portnoy.
One of Ray Alders best performance....but yet he is such a progessive vocalist

Me too... Was it the Mosquito Club and Tiles opened for them?
You know it's a great band when Joey Vera is playing bass
Such a masterpiece, and perfectly performed! I am almost in tears at the sheer beauty of this...

Esse álbum é espetacular, sem dúvidas um dos melhores dos anos 90.
Eu considero o auge do FW,gostaria muito que eles efetivassem o Kevin na banda mas ele ñ tem interesse em sair em tour,esse álbum é perfeito.
Sensacional não é? Essa banda foi muito injustiçada pqp

Es pura magia todos en sincronía excelente si sela rifan saludos de león Guanajuato
So many great moments on this record. Amazing piece of work.
This has to be my most favorite album ever
One of the best progressive metal albums of all time
Imagine rocking like this FOR AN ENTIRE HOUR. Nothing will EVER come close to it!
Ray couldn't hit the notes at this point, why did they continue and why do they keep going with him? Time for a better singer.
13:00 >>>>>>this is where my prog era began
Super !
The Longest Metal Track In History... Should Have Been Placed In The Guinness Book Of World Records...
Music gods at there best
Danke!
Ich liebe sie noch immer, durfte sie kennen lernen!!
Obra maestra!

Ray clearly was losing it here. They should have cut it when his contract with them was up.
Obra Máxima e Suprema!
Obra de Deus!
Amém!
Concordo com vc amigo. Obra divina
Banda injustiçada. Fates Warning tem o seu valor.
the best to ever do it
Saw this show in cleveland ohlo
Respeito máximo na essa obra prima
This is awesome!!!
somehow complex and simplistic at the same time
Fates Warning my band!!
Zonder was great.but please check out.watch tower.they will put your eyeballs out.
Anyone know where this concert was shot? I was friends with the band Divine Regale, who opened for Fates during the northeast portion of this tour. I saw them at Spotlights in Weymouth, MA. Great show! Got to meet Ray and the guys after and hang on the bus for a bit. Great night!
Favorite vocalist of all time, since 1988: Ray Alder. Favorite guitarist since 1987, of all time: Criss Oliva.
You don't set the bar very high when it comes to singers, do you?
@@flashyfrank5726 Is that slight sarcasm, or something else? LOL
@@mgdarenz Just an observation. If Ray Alder is your favorite singer, your standards must not be very high.
@@flashyfrank5726 You realize that I said "my favorite singer," right? The matter is truly subjective. So, I'd love to hear how your going to quantify and come up with a logical scale of vocalist standards criteria. LOL Your statement is nonsensical, and your conclusion illogical. Keep trolling, maybe you'll catch another one like yourself. haha ;)
@@flashyfrank5726 And it is abundantly apparent that at least some of your observational skills are highly flawed. ;)
