Dreamsfear

A once-promising band from Ireland, Dreamsfear mixed power metal,
a bit of thrash, and a bit of NWOBHM on their first album (actually
more like a long EP -- four longish songs).
At times the band sounds a bit like mid-period
Metallica (circa
Puppets/Justice), other times a bit of
Iron Maiden can be heard.
The production is a bit muddy, though understandable for a
self-financed release.
A bit more originality in the songwriting would be nice in the
future, but
Prelude To Destiny was a fine debut album.
Unfortunately the band never recorded again, the members scattering
to various local bands, several of which are active as of this
writing.
