‘Righteous Crusade’: new album from Crucible Divine, feat. Tim Gaines (ex Stryper) and ...

(from Roxx Records FB page)

Are you ready for a Righteous Crusade? The time is now, so let us begin. What do you get when band founder Raymond Christie coordinates his bands next release and it features the one and only Dale Thompson up front and center along with quite a few other amazingly talented musicians? You get the brand new release from Crucible Divine entitled ‘Righteous Crusade’

Crucible Divine started out as a studio project in 2009 and derived the name from lyrics in Rob Rock’s song “Holy Hell”.  The first song released was a cover of “Ramming Speed” for the Christian Metal Realm’s compilation “Temporary Insanity a Salute to Deliverance” released in 2010.  This paved the way to record the projects first full length album “Commitment” in 2011.  

Reeling in from a bad record deal, Crucible Divine was put on hold.  Fast forward to 2020. Nine years after laying dormant, Raymond decided to record one more song for release and then put Crucible Divine to rest for good.  Raymond had seen a post from Dale Thompson offering vocals for hire.  Contact was made and the song came to fruition.  In December of 2020 the single “Secret Sins” was released.  Dale really liked the song and suggested recording a full album.  With the compliment and encouragement of an industry veteran and lead guitarist/song writer Kevin Wale, nine brand new songs were born.  Crucible Divine now has a new fire to continue making music for the masses!

Roxx Records is excited to announce the latest release from Crucible Divine. This time it’s a Star studded affair and they’re ready to shake the foundation as they bring you a Righteous Crusade.

Today we are excited to debut the brand new album cover and the brand new single ‘Victim of Society’ featuring Timothy Gaines of Stryper. 

I'm loving it more with each spin!!!

It’s on my “purchase” list. It’s a good one.

Musically it's good but I get Dalecore fatigue.

It’s WAY better than the latest Perpetual Paranoia.

I think so…I’m 90% sure…
maybe someone else can answer this who knows for sure.

Yeah, It's us.

And, TBH I discover the forum because this tribute, but only enter here in 2015 when I started working with Doomsday Hymn, haha...

P.S.: Maybe it's time to us work in another tribute

Absolutely!!!

Well that is so awesome! If someone would share the story of how all that went down, I'd be very interested in hearing it. Or maybe there's a thread buried deep that talks about it?

I fully understand where you are coming from.  I weighed this heavily when doing this.  I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to work with Dale.

Dale sounds great here. It’s a fantastic album!

Back when the Deliverance tribute happened there were others who suggested a Tourniquet tribute.  I would definitely like for that to happen.  Arttie who ran the realm at the time worked tirelessly on the Deliverance tribute.  It was a massive undertaking and a lot went in to the project. It would have take a special someone to helm this project.

I really do not know how it would work with Ted now gone.

What ever happened to the Saint Tribute?

There wasn't enough interest from artists from my understanding.

Maybe a member of this forum are working right now to release a tribute to an amazing band very very soon, maybe...

     

Sweet, a Torn Flesh tribute.

Ew

I am ALL IN on a Tourniquet tribute!!!!

It's all from the old forum server. I don't know if any of that still exists. I didn't even realize I hadn't ever created an account after the migration.
