Hidden Gems - what are yours?


Recommended Posts

A couple more I've found since delving through my CD collection:-

 

 

I was surprised to see Dare have been going up until 2022 and have released 10 albums so maybe this part is the 'hidden' part..to me!

Great AOR-style 1st album. Main man Darren Wharton was the keyboard player for Thin Lizzy at some point.

This might be a bit of cheat as well. This band, Dub war, produced a couple of albums but I didn't hear much about them after this album which I have and love. It's Alt Metal with Raggae/Ragga ovetones I would say.

The singer, Benje, a Welshman, whose parents were of Jamaican origin, formed a new band Skindred after Dub War broke up and they're still going strong and have had some success I believe although I'm not over familiar with their stuff. Must check it out further..

Their 2nd (and final?) album, Wild Wonderful Purgatory was just instrumental cool metal riff pieces with the tracks just given random numbers. Cool but sexist cover and pics adorned the cd booklet.
