February 1st 2010 marked the release of heavy metal singer Blaze Bayley’s new album “Promise and Terror”.
To say that Bayley’s career has had its ups and downs would be much of an understatement. In fact, it is a testament to his strong will and dedication to music that he is still in the business today, as most trying to follow such an arduous path would have called it a day long ago! Bayley’s 2007 album “The Man Who Would Not Die” no doubt refers to this.
