Jeff Wagner, author of the Fates Warning book "Destination Onward"

"Throughout Really Good Terrible Things [debut album], Matheos and Alder serve up the kind of seductive melancholy Fates Warning fans will recognize. Yet there’s a thoroughly different approach here: vocals are delivered with a sort of nostalgic sadness, and the guitar work is layered in such a way as to feel dreamlike. These are rich sonic landscapes, visiting places haunting, beautiful, spectral and secret. The Matheos/Alder partnership is taken to some new and wonderful places here."
