Metal Church

Born out of the explosive West Coast metal scene of the early 1980s, Metal Church quickly established itself as one of the genres most formidable and musically sophisticated bands. After signing with Elektra Records, the group released two landmark albums: their self-titled debut, Metal Church, and its follow-up, The Dark; both of which remain essential listening in the heavy metal canon. As the U.S. metal wave surged, Metal Church hit the road with labelmates Metallica, further solidifying their reputation for precision, power, and uncompromising intensity. The band continued to evolve into the late 1980s and early 1990s, tackling political and social themes with vocalist Mike Howe on the acclaimed albums Blessing in Disguise and The Human Factor. While many peers shifted toward the eras commercial trends, Metal Church stayed true to their heavy roots, a commitment that earned them a loyal global following.
