I don't know about the rest of you, but while the second Fates Warning album has the Maiden-inspired melodic speed/classic heavy metal format of riff-powered compositions, it is overpowered by the soundscape of old-school speedy progressive metal with adventurous riff experimentation, shining synths, and alternation between fast and slow sections. In fact, I would probably consider this album the first ever primarily pure progressive metal album, with heavy metal as a secondary genre. Therefore, I'd like to submit Fates Warning's "The Spectre Within" to the Hall with the proposal of being removed from The Guardians while staying in The Infinite.

I agree with you here Andi. The heavy metal tag is completely unnecessary as far as I can see.
