Yeah, the Fates have been around a lonnnng time: the few legit metalheads I met in college a few years back were familiar with some of their mid 80's stuff like
Awaken The Guardian or
The Spectre Within, but the band has always had trouble marketing outside of the prog demographic from the 90's onwards because of bands like Dream Theater casting such a big shadow.
But yeah,
Darkness In A Different Light is about as good a jumping off point for 'em as anything they've ever done, so glad you like it.
