Fates Warnings second album, The Spectre Within is an ambitious sci-fi fantasy spanning 50 minutes across just seven wide-screen songs. It also marks the moment when the prog-metal veterans who, in their early days, were mocked as Iron Maiden Junior truly came into their own. Bringing the album extra notoriety, its centerpiece, Kyrie Eleison, notably appears on the Brian Slagel-curated soundtrack to the cult Eighties movie Rivers Edge, starring Keanu Reeves, Crispin Glover and Dennis Hopper.

This exclusive vinyl variant — pulled from theMetal Blade box set that is also still on sale— is being sold separately in super limited quantities along with otherrecords from the set.
