Do you know of any NEW "Old-School" Christian Metal Bands?

These guys are awesome and are as good as anything released in recent years. Fully recommended. Why they haven't been picked up by a label is beyond me, Christian Metal is crying out for new bands like this.

Why haven't they been picked up by a label?  Cause most of the labels are making more money off of generic pop worship bands.  They don't care so much about quality or putting out something different or for multiple audiences.  Sadly, most of the Christian music labels are so out of touch and never thought that not every church goer wants to listen to something besides Chris Tomlin all the time.

Sadly they announced their hiatus a year ago

In case anyone wants more info on these guys!

They are really great!

They only released 2 - 6 song EPs

I just ordered the Sardis album "Escape." Seems like that would fit the bill here. Excited to finally pick it up!

Hey alldatndensum - This may be a dumb question and I'm new here so pardon me if you've been asked this before.  I noticed your avatar.  Are you a fan of the band "Spock's Beard" by any chance?
