Fates Warning share new single

2020-10-07 by Fernando Alves | 26 Comments
Progressive metallers Fates Warning released a second single, 'Now Comes The Rain', from their upcoming album Long Day Good Night, out November 6th via Metal Blade Records. The album was mixed by Joe Barresi.

'Now Comes The Rain' lyric video can be streamed below.



The record also features guest appearances from touring guitarist Mike Abdow, who contributed some solos, plus Porcupine Tree/The Pineapple Thief drummer Gavin Harrison plays on 'When Snow Falls', and 'Under The Sun' sees the band incorporating a full string section for the first time.

Vocalist Ray Alder states:
"The styles of music we’ve written distinguish this record from the rest of our catalogue. There are some songs with electronics and some with a nice ethereal feel, as well as some pretty straightforward grooves, at least for us. And there are also some pretty heavy songs. We tried to give the listener a host of different things to listen to, as opposed to an album where every song sounds the same."

Long Day Good Night tracklist:

1. The Destination Onward
2. Shuttered World
3. Alone We Walk
4. Now Comes the Rain
5. The Way Home
6. Under the Sun
7. Scars 05:04
8. Begin Again
9. When Snow Falls
10. Liar
11. Glass Houses
12. The Longest Shadow of the Day
13. The Last Song

Pretty straightforward track, but it's really solid. I love how the clean and distorted guitars blend together

Such a lovely song. I like the fact that it's simplistic. This album is definitely going to have lots of diversity, and it'll make sense as a whole

Didn't listen to this until now. Enjoyed it, really love how warm it sounds

It's like he plays a full chord with both of them together. He's so intelligent with his use of guitar layering and tracking

Lighter than the first track, still as good. They don't miss.

Agreed, perfect amount of sting

I wasn't much of a fan of the shorter catchy stuff from the last record (Seven Stars, Like Stars, White Flag, SOS) but this one has a certain class that I can dig. Also big props for the more elegant production

That doesn't make any sense Sabrutin, considering your strong affection for Empire type songs....

I won't call them bad but there's a certain "radio metal" element that rubs me the wrong way

Loved the last album, but these singles have been quite meh for me, especially this one.
Especially as the album is 70+ minutes, I hope it gets a bit more exciting.

This song felt like it had a lot more in common with the slower tracks on the first Engine album. I enjoy it, as I enjoy all FW but, I also know it wont end up being one of the best songs on the album

The two singles are what they are, "singles." I'm pretty sure there are lots of interesting moments on the album, look at the song lengths, tells you a lot

Really can't wait for this. Got both the vinyl and CD pre ordered. These guys seriously deserve more attention.

Hahahaha this might be the one yeah. Although that tracklist looks mighty long.

True but the songs are mostly pretty short, could be all bangers

Total runtime looks to be over an hour. I know it's prog and shit, but that's already something that annoys me

Yeah the average song length is what's putting me at ease, otherwise I wasn't too excited about the 70 minute runtime either. It's their longest by a stretch, but these dude's always try and focus on quality so hopefully it all makes sense in the full context of the album

Surprised you didn't enjoy Theories that much bloc, would have thought it to be right up your alley. No wank, heavy and diverse

Maybe this is the album that spurs your Fates binge

Oh dude I liked Theories a lot but it's been a long time since I've given it a listen

Fates is one of those bands where it typically doesn't matter how long their songs are, they can usually pull it off

True, they're good at making long songs sound shorter than they are
