Title: Excellent Album.
Review: I am a long standing Fates Warning fan. The first two albums with singer Ray Alder, "no exit" & "perfect symmetry" are genius vocal works and I highly reccomend them. The instumentation is very heavy.Then Fates did some "4 star" efforts, "inside out" & Parrellels". Worth owning, but not quite reaching the originality of writing as the first two Ray Alder albums."Pleasant Shade of Gray" is a return to perfection. 5 Stars all the way. The vocals are more conservative, but in contrast, more mature in choice of using range and dynamics. Instumentally, the album is genius, very atmospheric and solid.Buy it if you like great progressive metal. If you like world class metal singers, buy any of these!!Ray Alder is one of the top singers in the relm!
