Music Review: Arch/Matheos Sympathetic Resonance

On November 16, 2011, in Mike Frighetto, Music, Music Review, by Mike Frighetto

Once I heard John Arch, formerly of Fates Warning, and Jim Matheos, current and founding member of Fates Warning, were recording a full-length album together  it easily became my most anticipated album of the year. Arch and Matheos made some great music back in the mid-to-late 80s and I looked forward to hear what they […]

Music Review: Stryper The Covering

On March 28, 2011, in Music Review, by Mike Frighetto

Releasing a cover album is a tricky thing. Sure, you don’t have to write the songs, which saves time, but will your fan base like the album if the material is different than your regular works?
