ABOUT THE ALBUM

John Arch – Twist of Fate [CD Reissue – Limited to 500]
Brutal Planet Records – Legends Remastered Series
Catalog #: BPCD1725 | UPC: 732131699449

Originally released in 2003, Twist of Fate marked the powerful return of legendary vocalist John Arch, best known for his work on the first three Fates Warning albums. This newly remastered edition includes the bonus track “Relentless” (radio edit, 5:49) and captures nearly 35 minutes of progressive brilliance.

Arch reunites with longtime collaborator Jim Matheos on guitars, and is joined by an elite rhythm section featuring Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) on drums and Joey Vera (Armored Saint) on bass. The chemistry that once defined early Fates Warning burns just as brightly here, delivering complex arrangements, soaring vocals, and emotionally charged performances.

The reissue features an 8-page deluxe booklet with extensive, easy-to-read liner notes, and is part of Brutal Planet Records’ exclusive Legends Remastered Series. This CD edition is limited to just 500 copies worldwide and has been expertly remastered for CD and vinyl by Rob Colwell (King’s X, Voivod, Nevermore).

For fans of Fates Warning, Dream Theater, Armored Saint, and classic progressive metal that blends technical precision with heartfelt intensity, Twist of Fate is a must-own release.
