There are at least two bands called Beyond Fear: 1)Beyond Fear (USA) Beyond Fear, the band fronted by Tim "Ripper" Owens of Judas Priest and Iced Earth fame, plays a rather harsh mix of american power metal and modern heavy metal with powerful riffs and vocals ranging from low growl to ear-piercing falsetto. In 2005, the fans of Tim had the chance to offer him a suitable name for his new band on his website, and this way "Beyond Fear" was chosen despite the fact that another metal band with this name already existed in UK.
