Our Story

Hailing from the city of sin, Las Vegas, Nevada, Dreams As Nightmares is a fresh voice in metal-core, influenced by genre-related bands like ERRA and Tesseract, while dipping into the melodic essence from artists like Dio and Alice in Chains. Their music blends technical finesse and raw emotion, offering a sound that’s both powerful and deeply relatable, crafting a sonic space where fans can feel seen and supported through the embrace of tough times and challenges. Their debut single "Into The Storm" (2025) sets the bar as the starting point of a journey where members and fans will be a towering force to be reckoned with by the world.

Dreams As Nightmares was conceived in 2023 as the project of guitarist Alejandro Gomez, after having parted ways with his past projects Image Intent and Damaged Savage. Following the creation of the project, he joined forces with Rich Thomas from Auralight (AZ) and A Suffocating Lie (CA) and independent singer/songwriter Connor Hetzel, adding a powerful vocal duo, combining raw screaming with prominent cleans, and opening the doors to a wider audience. Subsequently, the addition of guitarist Thomas Velasquez of Tree Frog Express and The Noir Movement, and bassist Jonny Vega, made the band a creative powerhouse, combining different musical backgrounds, leading to the refinement of the band's catalog.
