heavy metalprogressive metal
Fates Warning formed in Hartford, Connecticut in 1982 and are recognized as one of the founding acts of American progressive metal alongside Queensrÿche and Dream Theater. After beginning as an Iron Maiden-influenced heavy metal band, the group pivoted decisively with Awaken the Guardian (1986), featuring guitarist Frank Aresti, and followed with the landmark No Exit (1988) and the intricately arranged Perfect Symmetry (1989), the latter frequently cited as a defining album of the genre. Guitarist Jim Matheos has remained the sole constant member through decades of lineup changes, with the band's most recent album Long Day Good Night released in 2020.
