Forgotten Realm
Forgotten Realm is a power metal band (naturally, power metal, with a name
like that), founded by young guitar wizard Matthew Mills and featuring a
couple of
names in the business, namely vocalist David Fefolt (who has
worked with guys like Alex Masi in the past) and one-time
Manowar
drummer Rhino.
The group debuted in 2008 with
Power And Glory, and right away, it's
clear that these guys are going straight for the Euro power metal
crowd.
On the plus side, Fefolt's powerful, Dio/Coverdale-esque vocals put
a stamp of quality on every song, and then there's Mills.
The guy is a true virtuoso, as every song chock full of impressive
arpeggios, fills, and solos.
The downside here is the production (a bit muddled) and the songwriting,
which even by power metal standards is pretty generic.
again this is often standard issue for the genre.
Only the one album was ever recorded, so the band is likely done,
though Mills has recorded several albums as a solo artist.
