Phantom Lord
Though there are more recent bands with the name Phantom Lord,
this version was an obscure group (at the time, presumed to be
German)
whose selft-titled debut album crossed early
Metallica
with shades of NWOBHM, though the result isn't as promising as the
description might suggest.
Messy and poorly produced,
Phantom Lord was a forgettable album,
and though a second album was released, the band never amounted
to much and faded away soon enough.
It was later revealed that this was a side project for former
Virgin Steele
guitarist Jack Starr.
The second album listed the correct lineup (shown below), while
the first album listed fake German names.
