Badlands - Dreams In The Dark (1989)

[@scottspencer1980]

One of the last great melodic metal bands of our time.

[@OldMovieRob]

"Sing me a sweet, sweet song..." What an epic hook to an epic song.

[@dannygray2988]

My brothers and sisters of Rock we know by far this is one of the best bands ever invented and singer we all know should be in the top 10 of all times !

[@scottlosey4978]

He'll yeah, brother......Ray Gillan, Eric Singer, and, of course, Jake......I remember the day that I bought this album and was BLOWN TF AWAY......give anything to be 19 in 89 again!

[@jacobault2264]

FUCKING A brother

[@tomh9315]

​@@scottlosey4978Don't forget Greg Chaisson, a badass as well!!

[@anointedsword]

Very underrated album, but it burns on and on! Top 10 singers? Probably not, but very well done song and album.

[@scottlosey4978]

@@tomh9315 You are 1000 percent right......both Badlands albums are absolutely and indisputably KILLER! Hey, Tomh, check out this new band called Shadows....opening tune is called Nightstalker. If you can, please let me know!

[@rondellschuyler7074]

I absolutely love this song. Bluesy with a great singer Ray Gillen. Jake E Lee just a bad ass guitar player.

[@shawnchromiak9219]

By far one of the best songs from the 1980"s Ray Gilllens vocals are awesome!!!

[@tammyjones4703]

love Ray Gillens voice!! He was the best front man ever!!! loved hearing him sing then & I still do today too!!!

[@bronsongetseven7326]

Lazaro Millares Why in the fuck did you tear that girl Tammys comment down like that. She said absolutely nothing derogatory to anyone. She only stated her love of Ray Gillan. I hate trolls like you. I also have strong opinions on band's but I don't attack innocent people like her. I address the band's themselves. Grow up boy!!!

[@bronsongetseven7326]

Tammy Jones Hello Tammy, I agree Ray has one of the best voices in Rock/Metal history. His work with Black Sabbath is excellent also. I hope you never have to run into trolls like him again. Rock on my friend. 😌👍👊

[@tammyjones4703]

Oh yeah &btw one more thing I am a she & u.s. citizen as well damn it!!! U don't have any right making any kinda judgements on me whatsoever!!!!

[@tammyjones4703]

Bronson GetsEven thank u I hope not either, he's such an inconsiderate, disrespectful, arrogant, vulgar talking pos!!!!

[@bronsongetseven7326]

Tammy Jones I've heard there are alot of trolls like him on KZbin. I mainly talk on Google+....I own 4 sites on there. Two of them are music. BGE's Metal Brigade & Classic Rock Highway....by B.G.E.....If you're ever on there stop by and check them out. Have a great night Tammy. 👍💀👊

[@hezamachine]

Talk about an underrated band. This was an extremely underrated song. This was Badlands only charting single. It was #38 US Main Rock Charts. It never charted on US Hot 100.

[@timmywager9818]

Went no.1 in japan..which makes you think..hey..the japanese have better taste then americans and dont fall for shit bands like poison and other posers..R.I.P RAY GILLEN!

[@hezamachine]

Mr. Big is Big in Japan. Outside Japan, Mr. Big were generally considered a one-hit wonder with their single "To Be with You".

[@xtinainthecity]

So so underrated. What a voice. RIP Ray Gillen.

[@chucktarkany9663]

I was towing a racecar in Michigan and we stopped for fuel. This cassette was on the counter for 2.99 , I noticed Jake on the cover. Bought it..loved it. Incredible album.

[@alroulexe4996]

Fantastic band. All four brilliant. What a voice. And what a unique player Jake was and still is - always interesting stuff, rhythm and lead. And he's had that thick ballsy tone ever since this album.

[@richardfeller6062]

How is this Album not on Spotify? A crime really... I always come back to the good ol KZbin for the good stuff.

[@thewhitewolf7886]

Because of Ray from what I gather.

[@abbieandus]

@ That is it. That is why albums are not on there. Why they are not re-released, re-mastered, etc. Apparently he was really careless while knowing he had HIV

[@awesomebeard1973]

@@abbieandus yesterday this us true. Dumbest legal decision. The man is dead why punish the whole band and the fans. But hey who cares the albums are on KZbin and slot of remastered

[@bigjohn432]

Not on Amazon music either.

[@ssgss_shrimp]

Atlantic pulled it off the shelves and doesn't have plans to do anything with it. Because of Ray's HIV.

[@bkh0525]

I know there is a ton of bad mojo surrounding this band, but let me tell you, I was 18 when this album came out and there was nothing that was hotter! This song really should, honestly, have millions upon millions of views!

Badlands was amazing and Eric Singer is a drumming God

Back when rock singers really sang..

Great track from a great album. That grinding riff reminds me a lot of Hold Me Tight by the Scorpions. That's no bad thing though...

[@robertpapak5467]

Moja najbolj

[@jeffsond]

Jake & I use to hang out together when we were kids. I helped him want to play guitar. He didn’t like it at first but quickly fell in love with it. We would jam together most everyday after school. I was a better guitar player until we around 14. His mom didn’t like how loud we were so we were banished to the garage. We would play until his dad got home and then we would shut it down. I love dreaming stuff like that…

[@BillDerBerg]

Great band to see live ... sucks that two years after I saw them playing in Hollywood Ray Gillan died. He didn't even look sick

[@johncollins7423]

Does anybody else remember the short time that Ray Gillen was in Black Sabbath? I hope I'm not alone here.

[@paulthomas7243]

Ray Gillen had a great voice, but i feel he was underrated due to all the other lead singers out at the time?

[@jdmcd3873]

Yes I do remember that.

Half this band went on to start “Red Sea” they only had one album called Blood in 1994. It is similar to this. It’s pretty good check it out.

[@joestrong3333]

Not on itunes or spotify... trying to find it... The old fashion way of buying album is my only option it looks like

[@rafacastorena145]

The reason why none of the Badlands albums are on iTunes, Spotify, or Amazon is due to Ray Guillen infecting HIV on women he slepted with and not telling them he had HIV. Atlantic Records would have to compensate each of the women that he infected with sales of any Badlands release. Atlantoc chooses not to do it which is strange since they would use the royalties that belong to Ray be used to pay the families of these women.

[@ssgss_shrimp]

Trying to find it on cd is a nightmare as well.

[@rodneyjames70]

[@thomashartman208]

[@oscarzana1728]

Why is this band not on ITunes?

[@ReierGotter]

Oscarzana 17 There is a lawsuit that stipulates the Badlands records cannot be sold.

[@MiguelCruz-oz7km]

Ray Gillen knowingly infected a bunch of women with AIDS. Atlantic Records, as part of the settlement with the families of those woman, agreed to shelve the recordings. There were other times when someone in the company didn't know about the agreement licensed them to other companies for release only to have to pull the license and have all the discs returned once the new releases became publicized. Eddie Trunk detailed this on his radio show.
