783.0. "Fear of God" by KETJE::VLASIU () Thu Aug 29 1991 04:53

This topic is for the band Fear of God. They have just released the album
"Within the veil" which was well received by critics. The band is the following:

	Dawn Crosby	- vocals (ex band Detente)
	Michael Carlino	- guitars
	Blair Darby	- bass
	Steve Cordova	- drums

They are from US.

The songs on "Within the veil" are:

1. All that remains
2. Betrayed
3. Emily
4. Red to grey
5. Deseased
6. Wasted time
7. Love's death
8. White door
9. Drift

Dawn Crosby has a fine HM female voice recalling a bit Patti Smith. She was
before singer in a thrash band, Detente, and was already quite appreciated.
FoG plays interesting HM with songs going from almost thrash to slow heavy
riffs (like Black Sabbath or Trouble). The overall mood recalls Warrior Soul's
first album (I haven't heard the new one). It's quite dark, progressive, 
and mixed in intensity. It's surely an album to be listened attentivly.
Recommended.

	I've been curious about more on them, I like the little bit I heard on the Hard N' Heavy vid, forget which volume...have yet to see any of their stuff in the stores. - Jim
783.2		SUBURB::COOKS	No sex please,we`re British	`Wed Jun 10 1992 09:04`	5
	A mate of mine has got the Fear of God album. To me it sounds like Mercyful Fate or King Diamond,and thus is pretty crap. Lots of trying to be scary vocals,and pretty basic music.
783.3	BETRAYED	COMET::JENSENT		`Fri Jul 31 1992 00:04`	9
	BETRAYED is an excellent tune. There was a video for it on MTV's Headbangers Ball. Unfortunately they only played it once but I happened to record it so I can watch it whenever I wan't to. Screw MTV!!!!!!!!!! Betrayed T.Jensen
783.4		SUBURB::COOKS	who the hell do we think we are?	`Fri Jul 31 1992 10:05`	4
	Don`t buy the album. It`s a jack and jill`s guide to metal.

	Re. .3 If you like "Betrayal" you should like the rest of the album. Very dark but also excellent. Well recommended. Sorin
