The combination of big riffs, driving rhythms, thick yet lithe bass lines, and rich vocal melodies has made for some of the greatest music of all time, and in the hands of Kings of Mercia, this recipe is intoxicating. Best known as the founding guitarist for Fates Warning, but with countless other projects under his belt—including Arch / Matheos and most recently Tuesday The Sky—Jim Matheos is incapable of stifling his creativity.
