Artist History
Blu from Starvox writes:
Hmm... perhaps a history lesson first, 'cause I did my homework: In Mick Mercer's Hex Files: the Goth Bible published way back in 1996, he says the UK's Dream Disciples are "one of the hardest working bands around." Indeed, by their track record, it appears so having played all over Europe including the UK, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, and the Czech Republic. They've released 5 CDs (plus 3 promo versions), and have just completed their sixth - Asphyxia. Ten years and counting they're still in the game -- I could tell you that they played this past April at the Whitby festival and that they are booked to play this coming August 4th at the Eurorock festival in Belgium. I could also mention, that whilst scanning club and radio playlists from Europe, like I often do, there's hardly one that doesn't include a track by The Dream Disciples.

Press Reviews
"The most depressing thing about Goth bands is the tendency for the truly great to get lost among the sub-Sisters dross that permeates the scene. Dream Disciples are the truly great. Massive, powerful anthems with just a hint of electronics." "By marrying traditional Goth with contemporary elements, the Dream Disciples have provided the best of all worlds. Fans of the Cure, Cult, Mission and U2 will adore this - as will anyone else who risks a listen. (8.5/10)"
