Anybody ever get into these guys?  They've always had some Christian imagery in their lyrics, but I've never heard them discussed in Christian circles.  I really loved their '88 album The Second Coming.  They just released a new album in 2013, Giants of Canaan.

Just noticed they have the same label as Nomad Son. (Metal On Metal) There are some christians in Nomad Son and they have a lot of christian lyrics as well, but are not considered a 'christian band'.

to me, Attacker sounded like a cheesy clone of Iron Maiden with some occasionally Judas Priest...They are not bad ..just cliched and "heard this before"...

They sound pretty good.  I found several of their albums available for download on eMusic.  I might check them out.

Don't feel bad, Juice. I've been through the Metal on Metal roster and missed them. I checked out a couple of tunes from their latest. Their new vocalist reminds me of David Wayne. Definitely getting some of this.

I saw them live a few years ago and they were great.

I love the song "This is Power".
