    Hi fav,

    "Blind with fear" would probably qualify as more of an idiom thana metaphor. However the phrase "love is blind" would be considered a metaphor.

    Hope that helps,

    It is a music band:

    The terrified boy raced out of the burning farmhouse into the freezing night. Blind with fear, Johnny stumbled barefoot over the frozen ground to the nearest farmhouse. Behind him, the Donnelly residence was spouting huge flames.

    Far off in the distance, the Banshee – a mythical creature from Irish folklore – was wailing. According to the Irish immigrants who settled Biddulph, the Banshee’s cries foretold death and destruction.
