Don't Be Afraid is a 1997 album by electro/synthpop group Information Society. The album adds industrial elements and guitars. The album was recorded with Kurt Harland remaining the sole member of the band, featuring collaborators Fred Maher and Steve Siebold of Hate Dept. The album features a more conceptual sound unlike past material, with Harland describing the album's themes as "extremes of emotion and sensation". The eighth track, "Ozar Midrashim", is used extensively in the video game Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, as the theme of the main character Raziel.
Background
According to Kurt Harland's Insoc.org website, the oldest work on the album is the first version of "Closing In", which dates back to 1992. Most tracks on the album have had previous iterations and versions, with these tracks being updated over the years. Harland initially worked with Fred Maher in 1996 on some of the first tracks of the album. Steve Seibold of Hate Dept. joined in January 1997 taking Maher's place and collaborated by playing guitar, producing and mixing on a number of tracks. This album is the first and only Information Society album to feature guitars, which are used on several tracks.
