I am now regretful that I used Awaken the Guardian for Fates Warning. Apart from the fact that I find it inferior to their later work, and that it is considered by many to not even be a prog metal album, I believe that there is a sizable portion of their fanbase and prog metal fans in general who hold their later work in higher regard, so unless there are any objections, I'd like to use one of their later albums to go up against the otherwise winner of this battle in a one off that I will not repeat.
I do not intend to change battles when they are already underway, but Fates Warning is one of the gods of prog metal, and so I think that a crime has been committed by including the album that I did, so I feel that it is justified to make this one and only exception. If most agree to this, then A Pleasant Shade of Grey will be added to the list upon the "finish" of this battle.
