DREADEFFECT

About Me

The sonic crushing wall of sound that is DREAD EFFECT is the result of 6 very experienced and talented individuals. The influences that flow from DREAD EFFECT range from progressive metal to thrash, industrial, goth, euro metal and fusion. One thing for sure about these guys however, is that they all enjoy heavy music that is complex yet catchy and melodic.
After the break up of his previous band, Richard Chambliss decided to form a new band..... again. After a couple of phone calls he secured long time friend, Andy Mayor, for Keyboards.
The time came to start searching for a vocalist. While putting a want-ad for vocals at the local guitar center, Clif (Richard's brother/former bassist) noticed an add for a vocalist in the area who had the same influences as the band. A phone call, a meeting, a recording and two rehearsals later, Vocalist Tim Likes filled the frontman position for DREAD EFFECT.
We hope you enjoy our music!
