Loved them since Awaken The Guardian. One of my all time favorite bands. They went downhill quite a bit since the departure of Frank Aresti but still ok imo. They need him back.
Check out one of Rays other bands, Redemption, the album "The Origins of Ruin" is great. Sounds just like classic FW.
The only one off No Exit I like is the Ivory Gate Of Dreams, and thats pretty much the only Ray era stuff I like. John Archs solo album was pretty good
Been getting into FW for the last 2 months. Also, Oyvind Haegeland (Scariot, Spiral Architect, ex-Arcturus) is John Arch incarnate! Check out Scariot's Momentum Shift for it, easily one of the strongest 2007 albums.
