1. Parallels

   Parallels is the sixth studio album by progressive metal band Fates Warning, released in November 1991 through Metal Blade Records. It has sold over 150,000 copies due to the success of the singles "Eye to Eye", "Point of View", and "We Only Say Goodbye". James LaBrie performs harmony vocals on the song "Life in Still Water" due to Ray Alder having to leave Toronto and not having time to finish with the backing vocals. Terry Brown came up with the idea of bringing LaBrie in as he had just joined Dream Theater and had a similar style. On March 16, 2010 Metal Blade Records released a special edition of Parallels. The special edition included remastered audio of the original album, live and demo tracks, and a DVD.

1. parallels

   Are trenches cut in the ground before a fortress, roughly parallel to its defenses, for the purpose of giving cover to the besiegers from the guns of the place. The parallels are usually three, with zigzag trenches leading from one to another. The old rule used to be to dig the first at 600 yards’ distance; but the improvements in artillery have rendered a greater distance necessary, and at Sebastopol the allies made their first trench 2000 yards from the walls. The third trench is very near to the besieged works, and from it saps and zigzag approaches are directed to the covert way. See Siege.

3. Alanis Morissette:

   I see parallels between ‘Yellowjackets’ and my perspective while songwriting: the sheer intensity, that going for the jugular with no fear around going for the profane, i’ve strived my entire career to support the empowerment of women and sensitives, and see the world through the female lens, and what’s so wonderful about this show is that each character is allowed to be dynamic and complex as opposed to oversimplified, reduced versions of women. I feel honoured to be a part of the legacy of ‘Yellowjackets.’.
