Chordplay - The Chords Of Fates Warning

Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords Of Fates Warning.
I've received a lot of requests for this episode and aside from the fact that I was waiting for the inspiration to strike to create it, I also wanted to allow myself a little time to become more acquainted with Jim Matheos' guitar style and playing overall - and I'm really glad that I did the extra research and music appreciation effort surrounding this lesson!

This episode features a number of haunting and unsettling guitar parts that Jim seems very fond of creating, and once you've moved through Fates Warning's catalog of music, you'll find these innovative chords, progressions, and exotic textures appearing on all of their albums, even dating back to their debut 'Night on Bröcken' from 1984.

The music featured in this episode ranges from lush open-string droned chords that have a mysterious effect heard in songs such as 'A World Apart' and 'Monument,' to the layered guitar parts found in the song 'Leave The Past Behind' from Parallels, and the haunting chordal sounds heard in 'Lighthouse,' and much more!

There's something to be said about the placement of eerie-sounding clean guitar parts commonly found in metal music, which can be traced to the origin of style - including the mighty Black Sabbath all the way back at the beginning. Needless to say, there's definitely something unique, interesting, and inspiring about the way Jim selects/arranges these types of chords and ideas in his music, and this lesson sheds a little light on these areas of his masterful prog-metal musicianship.
