Fates Warning guitarist Jim Matheos reportedly would not need to write any extra new music for the band.
In a latest interview with Sakis Fragos for Greece’s Rock Hard journal, Fates Warning vocalist Ray Alder spoke about how Matheos determination affected him. “After we did the last album and Jim [said] he doesn’t wanna write any more Fates Warning music, I had to do something,” he defined (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET). “I’m a singer. I can’t just get a normal job. I mean, music is my life; it’s been my life since I was 16 years old. I’ve been in bands — shit, since I was 14 years old I’ve been in bands.”
Alder has determined to maintain making solo music, and his sophomore effort II is about to arrive on June 9 through InsideOut Music.
However, simply because there will not be any new music coming fim Fate’s Warning sooner or later (most probably) does not imply the band will not ever tour once more. Alder stated that each he and Matheos have mentioned occurring tour and are each open to the likelihood, however that it is only a matter of getting all of the band members collectively.
“Joey [Vera]’s in five or six different bands. And Bobby Jarzombek [is] now playing with George Strait, one of the biggest country music stars in the world…” he defined. “But George doesn’t really do normal tours; he does one-off shows now and then. And so it’s really hard for Bobby to leave for more than a week or two to be on tour… But next year is the fortieth anniversary of Fates Warning, so we’re discussing doing a few shows next year around the world. Not a full tour, but some shows every few weeks or months apart. So hopefully that’ll work. We’ll see.”
