FATES WARNING - Seven Stars (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[@yippeethreeeight]

I think that Jim Matheos is a hugely underrated guitar player. His playing is always melodic and soulful.

[@dougcronkhite2113]

He used so many interesting chords, and was just a brilliant writer and player. The music world is going to miss him now that he's put Fates to bed for good.

[@jonp4846]

Matheos OWNS!

[@AskPolymathGeddy]

Fates Warning. One of the most underrated and underappreciated bands of all-time. Legendary. Never stop boys! You are right up there with the best bands in rock music history! And your new material is fresh and inspiring.

[@TheBadThad]

Very well said....FW is simply FANTASTIC yet relatively unknown....it's a sad state of affairs.

[@davidnitzberg4281]

The passion of this band doesn't resonate with your average metal fan because they're brianwashed by radio and the power of multimedia companies.....FATES WARNING AND DREAM THEATER NEVER GET WHAT THEY DESERVE...AND THAT SUCKS!!!, but you rock my friend ..you have the intelligence and the spirit to identify and appreciate what quality music is....HATS OFF TO YOU!!!!

[@januszkukuczka1389]

That*s true

[@nitro_001newman2]

At least they’ve survived all these years without popularity. We’re talking about 5 decades now, and they’re still putting out albums. Amazing!

[@lucaraiden6873]

instablaster...

[@nonemoreblack]

One of the rare bands that continues to deliver relevant, challenging and moving material into their 3rd decade.

[@88omair]

*4th decade :)

[@billdixon9504]

Jonathan Jacobs so true and they evolved as a band wich almost all other bands that started at the same time are singing greatest hits but these guys are still making hits.

[@pedroeespinozav]

Totally agree!!!!

[@markototev]

Fates should be performing in front of tens of thousands of people every time. So good.

[@baffzich]

They will! Wacken 2017! Looking forward to see them.

[@80sMetalMan]

Fk Yaaaaaaaa. They should be the Super Bowl half time show! No one would Ever be the Same....Seven Stars Destination!!!!!!

[@kahafa7406]

One of the most underrated bands with musicians who have the chops to play anything!!!

[@LanceWilkins18is9]

osi they are cool guys. I met them at Lamours in Brooklyn and not only did they rock, they brought Sanctuary and Pantera with them. first time I heard of Pantera. CFH for life since. got to speak to Frank Arresti and he actually remembered the show because it was the first time he ever saw them either. But FW and Sanctuary sounded like the CD. on the money and not all bands sounded good there back then. one of the best shows I saw

[@traceyrychewhite6374]

Lance Wilkins , Wow, that had to be one of the coolest things ever ! I'm a huge Pantera fan. I play guitar and Dimebag Darrel Abbott was the best guitarist who ever lived, in my opinion. I love Fates Warning too. Can't wait to see them live in Pittsburgh PA on June 27th! FATES FOREVER!

[@jmar482]

Criminally underrated band. They are so damn good throughout all of their lineup changes.

[@nikostragakis9501]

It took almost 300.000 years of humanity to reach that level of awesomeness.

[@tvacchino]

This is where MOST new bands are lacking. Progressive, Heavy, melodic. With a catchy hook and all instruments fit the purpose of the song. Not to mention an actual lead!! Yes I'm an old jaded metalhead.

[@chadcassidy2412]

I agree!

[@TheVuducha]

This is what DT lost years ago.

[@tvacchino]

I wasn't implying all new bands. "MOST" and what I was saying was that the sense of melody with aggression has gone "bye bye" for the most part.

[@comradefreedom8275]

Jaded? That actually sounds pretty cultured.

[@comradefreedom8275]

What's your opinion on Opeth?

[@88omair]

One of the best songs on an incredibly strong album. Album of the year for me. Don't take long breaks between albums guys, metal is in need of quality albums, and you're at the top of your game. Matheos is a beast, excellent guitar tones & songwriting.

[@tenzin682]

Why didn't you tell me this was up!! I thought we were bro's!!(lol)

[@88omair]

Patrick Puffer Haha Patrick, I was surprised you weren't here before me dude!

[@tenzin682]

I was working for a few nights over the weekend, I work a swing shift, which means I work nights one week and days the next. But at least I got to see it!! Awesome video, imagine, Fates hooking up with Patric, the guy that does the videos for Evergrey. That would be a whole different level!!!

[@88omair]

They would have to go to Iceland to shoot his videos :D. But FW definitely deserve even better quality videos. More cinematic, etc

[@andaporahi5129]

Best of 2016...for sure

[@gudalpesanz]

Ray Alder is the last of his kind. A beautiful, gorgeousl vocalist with the voice of an angel. He will forever be my favorite heavy metal singer.

[@drstupid4366]

Yep , I agree with you 100 percent . Ive always liked Ray Alder and its so unique the way he phrases his words .....remarkable vocalist .

[@nmda5058]

I think everything about Fates Warning is underrated! John Arch has one of the best voices in metal EVER!!! Jim Matheos is by far one of the best guitarists ive ever heard! Ill put John Arch head to head with any vocalist and he'd put them to shame!!! You cant compare to how musically inclined Fates Warning is!!!

[@The-Endungeoned]

When Arch/Matheos stuff was released, I realized that true FW is the magic between Jim's riffage and John's vocal lines.

[@BBMetalKing]

I've loved this band for 28 years. Always quality. Always brilliant. Rarely disappoint. Classic Classic band.

[@jessedover6175]

NEVER A DISAPPOINTMENT!😠

[@Chingon5903]

You can never go wrong with Fates Warning! They have withstood the test of time and they're still relevant.

[@nicolasvaladez992]

Two native San Antonians Ray and Bobby

[@brunodargor]

This drummer makes a fantastic job on this album 🇧🇷🤟🏻

[@omairsh8]

Bobby is one of the greatest. So creative and skillful

[@chuckecw]

Bobby is one of the best! Check out his work on Riot's Thundersteel and Privilege of Power...jaw dropping...

[@bags5150]

The most underrated band of all time.

[@susanlindsaywaddle7394]

Fates Warning is an awesome American Progressive Band formed in 1982 by John Arch(Vocalist), Jim Matheos & Victor Arduini(Guitarists), Joe DiBiase(Bassist), and Steve Zimmerman(Drummer). They really rock and "Seven Stars" is an awesome song!! 😻🎸🖤🤘🏻😎

[@jessedover6175]

FATES WARNING was my favorite band in the 80s, and they are STILL my favorite band in 2019. **And now in 2022, and beyond.

[@pervotheclown2199]

I realize people throw around the word " musical genius " a lot but the Jim Matheos and Ray Alder combo has to be as close to " musical genius " as you can get .

[@jimijakjones99]

well said Randy

[@88omair]

Jim should be in the same category as Mozart right Randy? ;)

[@bridgeshadows]

Jim Matheos and John Arch. Just my opinion.

[@ΕίμιστιόλτσΑριστιράςτσΠρουόδκι]

I 100% agree with you Mr.Randy!

[@fateswar19]

Sometimes one photograph Can make the whole world fade You'll never be the same You'll never be the same While silent words were read The miles still divide You'll never be the same You'll never be the same Seven stars, destination Calling out my name Seven stars, destination Take me far away Then the slow walk we made Turned the hours into days I'll never be the same I'll never be the same What once was lost is found And I cannot deny I'll never be the same I'll never be the same Seven stars, destination Calling out my name Seven stars, destination Take me far away Yesterday, I could never see A future far beyond, forever I would stay if you wanted me I know where I belong, forever So now face the day, make the change When the story ends it now begins forever And I've felt the flame, seen the light Of your seven stars that burn at night, forever Seven stars, destination Calling out my name Seven stars, destination Take me far away

[@sindybernal5212]

Amazing love love it!!! Omg!! The best Forever Fates xo

[@80sMetalMan]

[@sindybernal5212]

[@bags5150]

Jim kills this riff. And Joey flowing like water Ray bringing the heat !!!!!! Bobby in the zone.

[@seansteed74]

My favorite band EVER. Been a fan since 87. Will follow them forever. Can't thank them enough for the memories. I just wish they would come to the lower East coast, so I could shake their hands and say thank you.

[@elscourou6654]

i hope you get your wish

[@brandyarney1170]

Raymond its amazing how we have grown huh? I have some great memories of the early 80s in Texas with you! God bless you brother.

[@MaestrodiCapella07]

this song is so perfect that I almost want to cry

[@briankniffen7390]

Fates is the most underrated bands ever. Too great

[@vakhtangtskhvitava1143]

Beside everything that fans write here about this masterpiece, my mind is totally blown up with Jarzombek drumming. Incredible job!

[@theaterdreamer]

I cannot stop listening to the songs on this album. Holy shit, the sound engineering is fucking fantastic.

[@johnmiltonparadiselost5226]

Excellent band with a good music, and video footage of the best places in Madrid. Perfect

[@ktompa77]

One more MAGNIFICENT addition to a solid discography.... so rare!!! February in Greece, front row one more time!!

[@ktompa77]

LUC 678 I think we earned it with all the constant support and love we showed the band from very early on :)

[@ln4454]

This is the most solid band I´ve ever listened to -- 30 years and no one weak project.

[@Imhalfamazing2U]

Thank God these guys can still make a living playing rock music.They rock !!

[@jameslucas1137]

Amazing song and album!!!!!!2016 is being a great music year!!!!!

[@nikolaosdimitriadis15]

As long as songs like this still get made... there is hope

[@zacharythomas5839]

When I'm down I go straight to Alder and the FW crew. Such an Amazing band. Ray Alder can do therapy with just his voice. He has such charisma and the dude doesn't age.

[@vindsverdofficial]

I love this band so much..

[@bhuplaysguitar]

i just discovered this band just now and i'm already hooked \m/

[@cherylphillips2040]

[@room6038]

Beautiful images of madrid !!! Huge and amazing track! Good luck from Vallecas, Spain

This song mean so much to me right now! "So now face the day, make the change... when the story ends it now begins, forever!"

[@BooMMusicPlay]

Why I love Fates Warning? Because their songs mature much like wine each time you hear em ♥ /,,/

[@jonclarkson5911]

I still listen to Perfect Symetry and No Exit.

[@KurtStoffer]

This album is a Masterpiece. Buy It !

[@cristianpavez6832]

Great video of an outstanding album, best prog metal record of the year and so far superior than Dream Theater last album. Never been in Madrid, but the images of the city reminds me when i visit Montevideo, Uruguay. The Spanish influence in all cities of South America are evident until today, five centuries later.

[@tawariellorigami]

Omg.. I thought the same! I'm from Montevideo!

[@cristianpavez6832]

Great coincidence! I fly from Chile many times to Uruguay, great country, beautiful cities, lands and beaches and super very nice people. And if you loves FW music, even better! Un saludo cariñoso desde Santiago.

[@jeremyphillips400phillips7]

must be a Mexican Thang hugh?

[@alexestevam]

Cristián Pavez I waited for years to finally seem them live in São Paulo Brazil and I still can't process as their concert was so short but worthy every minute. Mike Portnoy played drums for them that night. Pure magic!

[@yercl7980]

Fates Warning son magnificos musicos, excelente canción, feliz de escucharles de nuevo...

[@louisnagy3657]

"FW"...One of the most underlooked bands of the 80's..."No Exit" was and still is a killer disc!!!!! Fan since 88' (Silent Cries) Video got me hooked..bought the disc ...listen from start to end!!!

[@TheBadThad]

One of the greatest bands out there today.....LOVE FW! I've been lucky enough to see them twice live, once with Zonder and the other with Bobby on drums. There is a FW CD in my player at ALL times. Keep the great music coming FW!

[@roonei84]

FW, once again, proved that you can be consistent and loyal to your original cause and sound fresh without repeating yourself...

[@miguelhermosillo4739]

Just saw them live last Friday and they absolutely kicked ass!!! what a great band...

[@cdub7026]

Can barely stand waiting until this January when Fates will play here in Vegas! It will be my third time seeing them live and they never disappoint: top-notch musicianship, deep lyrics, and passion in every note. It is a travesty to have NEVER heard a Fates Warning song on the radio but that fact just makes seeing them live all the more awesome! Keep rocking guys, you are giants in the prog-rock world! Looking forward to hearing ToF songs live!

[@gtrpimp76]

My favorite song from Theories of Flight! Fu.king amazing!! That section from 3:33 to 4:37 just raising the hair behind my neck. Especially when the harmony vocals come in at 4:22. Genius writing.

Not that I don't love all their work, But this cd is just one of their best in my mind...

[@ernieblais1787]

Fates Warning is The Greatest Band Of All Time. It is unfortunate that all the racist, vulgar and sexist rap/pop/techno/bullshit "music" gets all the attention in today's world... but true melody, lyrics and heartfelt musicianship rarely (if ever) gets the recognition that is rightfully due.

Now this is where we go wrong when we start comparing bands like it's a sport. There is no point in comparing QR with DT and FW. They all being sth different to the genre

[@Sublight77]

Been listening since no exit was new, and i swear theories of flight is my favorite album by them, and in my top albums all time. they NAILED it, this entire record. its the album i waited 20 years for from them. The light and shade of things....wow. ghosts of home.. amazing

[@stinky_nut_blast]

Incredible achievement that late in their career. My favorite FW album is Sympathetic Resonance. Beside the name, it's 100% Fates Warning in style and line up. Crushing riffage, prog to the tilt. My other favorite is Perfect Symmetry, but then Theories is already coming at a 3rd place. And I have to say Long Day Good Night is not much worse. It lacks the stellar hightlights of Theories and needs more work to get into, but rewards it richly.

[@Sublight77]

Did Ray quit smoking? His voice sounds so clean and powerful and not dry like it use to. Hell I think this is the best he's sounded since the mid 90s.

[@ScorpionMaster1224]

idk if he did but that's why I quit smoking weed and tabaco because even though I'm not in a band and probably never will be , I have a high octave voice like Dickinson, Ray and tate and the day I loose my voice will be the day that a part of me dies. Love just hearing myself sing lol.

é decisamente un grandioso pezzo di un grande album, che possiedo e che mi piace tutto.

Il pezzo più rappresentativo di "theories of flight"

[@jakobfel2]

@@scottdenja6896 Well, to be honest, not anyone can growl or scream. I enjoy both sides of metal and as a self-taught vocalist of both sides, I can tell you that both are difficult to learn. The difference in difficulty is that singing has all the notes, tones, vocal placement, etc whereas screams and growls generally have three different tones/placements: fry, false cord and tonal (which is basically singing with very heavy distortion; think Devin Townsend). Really, it's just a matter of preference. Like I said, I enjoy both but get that not everyone has the same taste. Singing and screaming take talent, they're just two different types of vocal styles. No need to insult one just because it's one of the most common vocal styles in metal these days.
