Review Type: 

Formed by Pete Newdeck (drummer at Eden’s Curse) and Ian Nash. After successfully writing an array of hard hitting music, they quickly enlisted the enthusiastic drummer Mark Cross (Firewind, Helloween). Cross was so impressed by the vocal ability of drummer Newdeck, he booked into a studio for the album F.E.A.R.

However, underneath all this are the fundamentals of good hard rock or metal, of any kind: strong melodies and harmonies, big riffs, catchy hooks, and ripping solos. With these characteristics, and Newdeck's surprising vocals, F.E.A.R. is an interesting listen with many good songs.

This Album needs a few listens before it to grow on you.

75/100
