Neues Album vom Fates Warning Gitarristen mit dem alten Fates Warning Sänger John Arch (Awaken the Guardian!!)! Die Prog-Meister schaffen es nach wie vor, nicht angestaubt zu klingen, sondern sehr vital! Das Line-Up der neuen Scheibe wird dabei von den ehemaligen und aktuellen FATES WARNING-Schlagzeugern und -Bassisten Joey Vera (b.), Bobby Jarzombek (dr.), Joe Dibiase (b.) und Mark Zonder (dr.) komplettiert, außerdem werden unter anderem Bassist Steve DiGiorgio (DEATH, TESTAMENT), CYNICs Sean Malone sowie der Schlagzeuger Thomas Lang auf "Winter Ethereal" zu hören sein.

Wer ein Faible für Prog-Sounds ganz gleich welcher Couleur hat, kommt kaum an der Platte vorbei.

In progressive metal circles, the names of guitarist Jim Matheos and vocalist John Arch are spoken with due reverence. With the former having been a driving force in Fates Warning for thirty-five years, and the latter the original front-man of that band, they also have a single seminal work under the Arch / Matheos banner, 2011's Sympathetic Resonance . In 2019, they have reunited to follow that record up with Winter Ethereal , a more stylistically varied and perhaps deeper collection that explores a lot of sonic territory over the course of nine immersive tracks. "This stems from both of us trying to step out of our comfort zones a bit, sometimes voluntarily, sometimes being pushed," states Matheos. "Having worked together so many times, it would be easy to fall into the same way of doing things, and I think we were both interested in exploring some new areas." Arch concurs and adds: "Each song is notably different from the next, and nothing sounds repetitive. It is not a concept album, but somehow after a full listen from start to finish, there does seem to be continuity between the songs that I can't describe. At over an hour long, I think the fans will agree that it is a full listening experience."
