5 stars With Awaken the Guardian, the magicians from Fates Warning closed their so-called classic trilogy with excessive perfection, those three initial albums were influenced by the most conventional Heavy Metal, with an important British imprint, and in all cases with the extraterrestrial John Arch to the microphones. With Awaken the Guardian they recorded their most complete and complex album to date, maintaining, of course, the same roots and the same concepts shown in their two previous works, but on this occasion going one step further in terms of themes, artistic developments. and conceptual designs. Awaken the Guardian is a tremendously mystical and esoteric work, an absolutely magical album in its entire design, surrounded by an aura of contemplation and spirituality worthy of mention. It is a delight to be able to enjoy absolutely immortal songs from this album such as "Guardian", "Exodus" or "Prelude To Ruin", without forgetting equally important, darker and more mystical pieces, like "Fata Morgana" or "The Sorceress" In short, another classic from his discography, another album of incalculable value, a work that undoubtedly helped to consolidate the progressive metal scene with absolutely clear and marked postulates. Without a doubt one of the most resounding and definitive albums in the history of Heavy Metal.
