You probably never heard this band, but they are worth the mentioning. Though, forgotten today, back in the 80s this was an classic band with a small cult-following. What differs Dream Death from every other thrash metal band is the fact they these dudes mixed their thrash with dooooooom. The Black Sabbath influence is obvious, and if Brian Lawrence would have growled instead of using his harsh vocals, this could even be described as death/doom, or "proto-death/doom". Anyway, the band split up in 1989 and formed a new project called Penance, playing doom metal. Though, Penance split-up after several albums.

I've found a good link with hilarious information (the site calls them death metal, lol!): Click me hard.

Here is their MySpace page with some songs, I especially recommend "Back from the Dead", old school lyrics!

And last but not least, their doom-metal.com link: Click me hard.

According to the MySpace page, they are active again.

Listen to the complete album here: click me hard (real player format!)

I added it but the songs are all for the real player though..

Ye sits mono sound too but still better it how no
I havnt seen tham in stores but listening in vib site

Great band. I regret not buying "Back from the Dead" at the old school shop in Hellfest 2007... I'm bound to regret MAAANY albums I didn't pick up there.

Good band, they are very skillful at thrash mix with doom, but IMO more thrash than doom.

Bought "Back From The Dead", a compilation of their demo's, at the Warning gig. Haven't listened to it yet. I bought it because of this thread, to be honest, but I am too brainfucked by Corrupted at the moment they are going to have to wait a bit longer.

it's never wrong to buy something i recommend - the demo compilation is brilliant, but try to get your hands on the full-lenght too, or download it, whatever just listen to it.

heard 2 songs from their myspace page. like jed said, they are more thrash than doom, they even reminded me of Slayer more than once... it's still very good, i liked it but i'll download later because my oc is almost out of memory

hey even reminded me of Slayer more than once...

lol? please explain.

@Leading The Rats: i don't know... some parts for some reason remided me of them. like the sound of some riffs or something, not quite sure

hmmm...thrash and Doom... I've never heard their songs... I think Doom and Thrash very different styles..

Interesting band indeed...
I'd never though that thrash and doom could make something together... Awesome shit.
I know a site where I can buy JIM... Just in case I fall in love with this band ^^
