Podcasts about Fates Warning

When God decides to record his first metal album, he will be disappointed to remember that Obliveon already recorded its masterpiece, Nemesis, in the Year of Our Lord, 1993. On its latest episode, Radical Research conducts a much-belated investigation of the first two albums by Montreal's most underrated sons, Obliveon. In the early '90s, the band treated a small-but-fanatical audience to highly-advanced, cutting edge, cosmic death thrash in the forms of 1990's From This Day Forward and the aforementioned Nemesis. Still unsung after all these years, Radical Research is here to set the record straight and shed light on one of underground metal's true greats. Note I: The “pointless, ridiculous 7 inch" Hunter mentions in this episode is this one, a Coroner covers split between his band, Canvas Solaris, and our phurry phriends phrom Pharaoh: https://www.discogs.com/release/2586288-Pharaoh-6-Canvas-Solaris-Tribute-To-Coroner Note II: Speaking of covers: Jeff mentions Agoraphobic Nosebleed's cover of Voivod's “Forgotten in Space.” He says the cover if about 6 minutes long, but it's actually a shorter 3:48. Don't trust Jeff on ANYTHING he says about Voivod… Note III: The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

My guest for this episode is Warlord and former Fates Warning drummer Mark Zonder, who was kind enough to talk to me about A-Z's sophomore album, A2Z2, which dropped June 6 on Metal Blade Records. A-Z provides catchy and accessible hard rock music that's a bit more adventurous than your typical AOR fare. The band is made up of accomplished musicians and they just flat out rock. The band's second album has more bite and has more progressive elements than the debut, as A-Z continues to define its sound. Big thanks to Mark for telling me about his musical background, playing in Fates Warning, forming A-Z and more. Learn more about A-Z at www.a-zband.com or follow them on Facebook.

Inspired by Jeff's soot-damaged, waterlogged, promo-punched copy of his treasured US CD version of this 24-song behemoth, we take an hour and 40 minutes to revel in this intensely special 1990 compilation. The epitome of the Earache label at its peak, this was a fun episode to record, captured partly in Savannah while we hung out at Hunter's and partly remotely, from our separate outposts.

We're incorrigible Genesis fans. We hail every bit of output from 1970 to 1978. We even go further than that. But here, for episode 127, we stop and lovingly gaze at the band's final album of the '70s, the first after the departure of guitarist Steve Hackett, and a work that some mark as the band's departure from prog rock. Not so, say we! Spectral, ghostly, gauzy, playful, lush as all get-out...and total prog. We laud this fascinating transitional effort by one of the greatest bands of all time...prog or otherwise, Note I:The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

For our 126th episode, Radical Research travels to the farthest reaches of our favorite country and we do so with a rare companion, Agalloch lynchpin, John Haughm. In this episode, we dive into the discography of Thule, a progressive rock band that defies the rules of progressive rock. Dark, nocturnal, frozen, magical - Thule's seaborne prog offers the listener glimpses into forbidden worlds. We hope that this episode will seduce you into taking the risk that is well worth the reward. Note I:We were stoked as hell to have Agalloch's John Haughm with us for this episode. As such, we go on even more tangents than when we get up to that nonsense when left alone. So, tangents on Emperor, on Genesis, on ZZ Top, and on much more as we trawl the murky, exotic waters of Thule. Note II:The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

What started as a joke ("send us a $10,000 donation and we'll do an episode on Bathory's disasterpiece flop, 'Octagon'!") Well, we wondered what that kind of episode would be like, so we decided to just chat about it and see what happened. No big plan, no huge overarching analyses...just a little walk through the ugly, clattering eighth album by a man and band we absolutely worship. We count 'Octagon' as one of the worst two albums ever released by a legendary band...the other one, 'St. Anger' by Metallica, is even worse than this.

As Hunter so aptly calls it early in this short episode: “Fiend for Blood is an EP that is in the process of dying.”         After the classic Mental Funeral of 1991, Autopsy released the Fiend for Blood EP as its follow-up. Those who were there in 1991 would have already recognized Mental Funeral as a towering achievement of death metal and, indeed, time has proven us right on that score. But Fiend for Blood impressed less. It was even more garage-y, it was a mere 12 minutes, and, at first, it felt like a mere afterthought. In the thinking of at least one Radical Research host, however, it is the band's second-best recording in their entire discography. We discuss this 12-minute EP in…well, a few more than 12 minutes.

Jeff: “Was talking with my friend S. Craig Zahler a few days ago, and we were discussing Sarcofago's 1987 debut, I.N.R.I. Zahler noted that there are some bewildering timing issues in 'Nightmare,' and how he'd like Hunter ('who is 20 times the drummer I am') to try and identify what the hell's going on. I put this quandary/query to Hunter and let ‘er rip.”Note I:The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

This episode brings to a close our periodic investigations of the Steven Wilson-curated 'Intrigue' compilation. Covering progressive sounds in UK alternative/post-punk music from 1979-89, 'Intrigue' nails its intention, proving that, while traditional prog rock may have waned in the '80s, that spirit of adventure and invention remained alive through the work of dozens and dozens of UK music-makers in this time period. This episode focuses on Kate Bush, Dif Juz, Cardiacs, Dead Can Dance, SLAB!, Momus, No-man and a host of others.

Switzerland's deadliest export, Coroner, which sliced and sawed its way through the metal landscape of the ‘80s and early ‘90s, has finally found its way under the Radical Research microscope. From the savage thrashing mayhem of R.I.P. to the reclined elegance of its final missives, Radical Research dives deeply into the methods and madness of one of metal's ablest battalions.Note I:The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

Is there an album more representative of this podcast's main focus? Not outside of Norway, there isn't. Montréal's DBC (Dead Brain Cells) released ‘Universe' in 1989, a tech-y cosmic opus of 37:26 that manages to cover the big bang, the evolution of life, the fall of the dinosaurs, man's eventual dominance on Earth, and humanity's possible future in the album's brief but eventful duration. Join us as we spelunk through the black holes and blocky, monolithic riffs of DBC's second and final album…   Note I:All Ye Who Enter: Tangents on other Canadian metal bands will happen throughout this episode.

This is a “careful for what you wish for” kind of thing. For years and years, we hoped that we could hear the mighty Steve DiGiorgio's bass work with more clarity on Death's 1991 masterpiece, Human. Once we could, thanks to the 2011 reissue, we relented and realized we preferred the original version after all. We present this mini-episode in good humor and with an anxious heart, because we hope no one, least of all DiGiorgio himself, understands this is not a critique of his playing. The man is a god to us…we just prefer the original sound of the 1991 ‘Human' over the 2011 reissue. This shit's important!

Operating outside of the metal infrastructure, but heralding its glory and complexity more so than most “true” metal bands, The Fucking Champs, in their 1994-2007 rampage, cobbled together elements of Trouble, Confessor, Don Caballero, and Kraftwerk and reshaped the geometric possibilities of math metal, all with the insouciance of its indie rock roots.

The one-long-song album is a rare event in the metal genre, and a tough assignment to tackle and get right. We hold up these five albums as the finest examples of the approach. While it's difficult to convey their scope in snippet form, we tried our best and had a lot of fun doing so. (Incidentally, this also happens to be one of our longest-ever episodes!)

Our man Ginn loves him some Gadd! In this brief episode, we extract three of Hunter's favorite moments by his favorite drummer on the planet, Steve Gadd.

When it comes to a difficult-to-define concept like psychedelia in music, it's subjective. It's not all hippies with sitars and lava lamps and bongs…but that's not wrong either.

That's fine. We love it too. But we love many other Porcupine Tree albums. So, when Hunter said “I've gotta be honest with you, I've gone full Tom Hailey, there's really only one Porcupine Tree record that I really love anymore,” it blew Jeff's gaskets. And then it appeared Hunter said that one album was Signify (“and maybe Sky Moves Sideways”). The whole thing became maddening. After listening back to this torrid exchange (starting at the 1:03:25 mark), Hunter wants to clarify: “Stupid Dream is my favorite Porcupine Tree album, and like I said, I like all ‘90s Porcupine Tree.“ He was being oblique in the recording and it all got a bit out of hand.

We celebrate musicians and bands that rapidly evolve and challenge their audience with newness each endeavor. But the abrupt left-turn San Francisco metal band Hexx took between 1986 and 1987 is beyond fascinating, and beyond the norm.

Mark ZonderHe joined Fates Warning in 1989 and immediately established himself as one of prog-metal's most critically acclaimed drummers. Mark Zonder joins us to discuss his time with Fates, his recent albums with A-Z (featuring Fates vocalist Ray Alder) and his recently reactivated band, Warlord. Created and Produced by Jared Tuten

"When Dream and Day Unite" marca el debut de Dream Theater en la escena del metal progresivo. El álbum fue lanzado el 6 de marzo de 1989, marcando el inicio de una carrera que cambiaría el panorama del metal progresivo. Para algunos es el inicio del metal progresivo, para algunos otros no lo es, pues para entonces ya había bandas como Queensryche (1981) y Fates Warning (1982). Aquí en La Galería Nocturna Podcast damos el tiempo para reconocer este hito en la escena del metal progresivo, sea o no el inicio de dicha era.

This week we pay homage to bands straddled the world of the 80s hard n' heavy and the 90s alternative n' grunge. These were bands that were somewhat outside of the status quo specifically in the hard rock and metal world that seemed to be playing music that was more genre and categorization-defying. Thus we created our own non-genre called; The Inbetweeners!What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we cover all 3 categories and even some bands that we played early on in the podcast. The transition from the hard rockin' 80s to the punk-edged alternative of the 90s was a time like no other, and some bands simply got caught in the middle. Go and check out these songs and the albums that they come from and enjoy some music from The Inbetweeners! Songs this week include:Naked Sun – “Psycho-Activate” from Naked Sun (1991)Funhouse – “Y.R.S.” from Generation Generator (1990)No Walls – “Naive” from No Wall (1992)Animal Bag – “Missing Out” from Animal Bag (1992)Red Sea – “Blood” from Blood (1994)The Hatters – “Sacrifice” from The Madcap Adventures Of The Avocado Overlord (1994)Loudhouse – “Faith Farm” from For Crying Out Loud (1991)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

In this podcast episode, I was very pleased to guest Linus Corneliusson: a mixing engineer and editing assistant at Fascination Street Studios who has shifted towards audio plugin development.I met Linus (and his colleague Jacek) at the Audio Developer Conference 2022 and he's definitely one of the most friendly and funny people in the community. What is even more amazing, he's worked in the studio with top-notch heavy metal bands, like James LaBrie, Soilwork, DragonForce, Haken, Leprous, Dark Tranquility, Between the Buried and Me, and Fates Warning (basically most of the major names in the progressive metal genre).In the podcast, we discus how Linus started creating simple audio plugins on the side which led him to pursuing a full-blown career as an audio programmer for Bogren Digital. We also discuss tools, tips, and resources he used and recommends for starting in audio programming.Are you a mixing engineer looking for a way to transition into audio development? Are you seeking advice on which path to take and which resources are the best to reach out for? Do you need inspiration and motivation? Then this episode is for you!Note: If you like the podcast so far, please, go to Apple Podcasts and leave me a review there. You can do so on Spotify as well.

This week, we once again visit the The 250 List. In volume 4 we each take a look at 5 more bands that did not quite make a household name for themselves in the 80s and early 90s. The 250 List is an article written and published in November 2021 by Bobby Caughron from XS-Rock Website containing 250 hard rock and metal bands from the 80s and early 90s that fell short of setting the world on fire, but still had albums worth checking out. With each episode volume we do, Sonny and I will each cover 5 bands from that list to discuss. WE NEED YOUR HELP!!

Heavy Metal Guitarist Talks About His Band's New Album#newmusic #heavymetal #megadeth #kingdiamond #witheringscorn #glendrover WITHERING SCORN was formed in 2020 by brothers Glen and Shawn Drover, who have played together previously in heavy metal icons Megadeth, as well as in Eidolon. The pair have teamed up once again for their latest musical offering and are joined by Joe DiBiase on bass, who played with Fates Warning for 14 years on multiple records and world tours, and, on vocals, German native Henning Basse who is most well-known for his work with Metalium, Firewind, and others. The potent combination of these four incredibly talented musicians joining forces has given birth to an uncompromising heavy metal record in the form of their debut offering, 'Prophets Of Demise'.

Fates Warning frontman Ray Alder is our guest for this week's edition of The MetalSucks Podcast! He's here to discuss his latest solo album II, coming out June 9. As such, we discussed when he had time to focus on following up What The Water Wants, why it's more difficult for him to write music for his solo project as opposed to Fates Warning, and why he decided on calling the record II. We also get to chatting about the long break from touring he's currently experiencing, how he adapts to change in modern times compared to his youth, if there are any plans for Fates Warning's 40th anniversary next year, and an update on all his other current projects including Fates Warning and A-Z. This week is a music episode and we present our mid-year best of list, and play a track off of every album we feel you need to listen to before moving into the summer! Song: Insomnium “White Christ” Featuring Sakis Tolis Song: Enslaved “Congelia” Song: Venemous Concept “Fractured” Song: Sermon “Golden” Song: Ray Alder “This Hollow Shell” Song: Ray Alder “My Oblivion” Song: Hellripper “I, The Deceiver” Song: Entheos “I Am The Void” Learn more about your ad choices.

Jeff WagnerAuthor Jeff Wagner was an editor at Metal Maniacs magazine from 1997-2001 before turning his attention to music-related books beginning with 2010's “Mean Deviation: Four Decades of Progressive Heavy Metal” (featuring cover art by Voivod drummer, Away). In 2014, Wagner published “Soul on Fire: The Life and Music of Peter Steele” followed by 2022's “Destination Onward: The Story of Fates Warning.” We find ourselves in rare company as Jeff shares his meticulous knowledge of obscure bands, his writing process, things he learned about Peter Steele and Jim Matheos, and news of his latest, in-the-works book (we won't give it Away here so you'll have to watch and listen).Created and Produced by Jared Tuten

Ray Alder, vocalist for Fates Warning, is back with a new solo album titled 'II' out on June 9th.  He joins the podcast to talk about the record and more.  

Over the course of its previous 93 episodes, Radical Research has banged, thrashed, and decapitated but never before has it waltzed. That ends now. Formed as Aslan in 1985, San Diego's Psychotic Waltz released four full-length albums in the ‘90s, each of which challenges all received notions of "progressive metal." Despite being one the most even-handed of metal bands -- not a weak link in the psychotic chain -- this episode pays particular attention to the uncanny, elegant guitar playing of Dan Rock and Brian McAlpin. Their entangled, spiraling guitar tendrils push the instrument to the point of apotheosis in the context of heavy metal. But there is room for all the rug-cutters at this hoedown. Put on your dancing shoes and come join us. Note I: Not anything to do with Psychotic Waltz, but we've been informed that….”Hunter Wagner” is protagonist's name in a concept album by a band called Scapegrace and their The Abyss Swallows album. https://scapegracebc.bandcamp.com/track/the-abyss-swallows Note II: Please consider donating if you listen to Radical Research often: https://www.paypal.me/rrpodcast We also have a webstore where you can find shirts, CDs, and books, many of them recently restocked http://radicalresearch.org/shop/ Music cited in order of appearance: “And The Devil Cried” (A Social Grace, 1990) “Another Prophet Song” (A Social Grace, 1990) “I of the Storm” (A Social Grace, 1990) “Out of Mind” (Into the Everflow, 1992) “Into the Everflow” (Into the Everflow, 1992) “Little People” (Into the Everflow, 1992) “Haze One” (Mosquito, 1994) “Cold” (Mosquito, 1994) “Only Time” (Mosquito, 1994) “Faded” (Bleeding, 1996) “Bleeding” (Bleeding, 1996) “Northern Lights” (Bleeding, 1996) “My Grave” (Bleeding, 1996) Radical Research is a conversation about the inner- and outer-reaches of rock and metal music. This podcast is conceived and conducted by Jeff Wagner and Hunter Ginn. Though we consume music in a variety of ways, we give particular privilege to the immersive, full-album listening experience. Likewise, we believe that tangible music formats help provide the richest, most rewarding immersions and that music, artwork, and song titles cooperate to produce a singular effect on the listener. Great music is worth more than we ever pay for it.

Joey VeraBest known as the bass player for Armored Saint, Joey Vera has also played with Mercyful Fate, Lizzy Borden, Fates Warning, Anthrax, Arch/Matheos and Motor Sister, among others. We cover as much as we can of his storied career, including how a car crash with Motley Crue's Tommy Lee helped finance an early Armored Saint demo, why he turned down interest from Metallica and how Thin Lizzy and Queen blew his young mind.Created and Produced by Jared Tuten

We know many Radical Research listeners partake in music we're not totally familiar with. As much weird/left-field/inventive rock/metal as we digest or are aware of, there's so much more that we have no experience with. Thus, we invited listeners to submit samples of an artist, or multiple artists, they're certain we have no familiarity with. So it is that Mr. Forrest Pitts -- writer, thinker, dreamer, master of disaster, headspinner general – fucked with our heads this entire episode. Five snippets each by three different artists. We had a blast, and think you'll find this a rather fresh and unusual episode. Come with us!

We close with a snippet of a version of Yes classic, “Roundabout,” played by the Wrigley Field organist in Chicago June 4, 2022, before the game began. A field recording by Jeff Wagner.
