Classic 80s metal with a positive message

While Stryper played the pop side of Chritian metal, BC grabbed listeners by the throat and roughed up the edges to create searing metal attacks on each disc. Atomic Arena is probably their high point with great tunes like Imaginary Music and Living Dead being personal faves. Make sure you know what you're getting before you buy...this isn't for everyone. Old school HMers have been paying top dollar for this on ebay for years

Child Of 80's Metal

I know there are some who could argue the huge "Iron Maidian" influence. But I can listen to both bands and see a difference!! These guys are very tight Metal band that all who listen will here some very melodic loud guitars and some great vocals. This album is for all hard rockers and not just the christian rockers!!

A MUST OWN for fans of 80s White Metal!!!

This album is a definitive top 5 in the Christian metal realm. If you are an Iron Maiden fan, you will find alot to like in this album. The classic Elefante sound works great with this band...the heavy rhythm section compliments their sound. Singer Mike Lee has one of the most authoritative voices in all of 80s metal....ranking up there with the likes of Ronnie James Dio and Bruce Dickinson. This stuff is quite a bit heavier than your average Stryper or Whitecross....really in a league of it's own. Highly recommended!!

Shortly thereafter, the boys used...
