Lordchain have released a disc that is influenced heavily by the Sam Taylor school of progressive rock and metal. While not as polished as a Sam Taylor produced project, 'Cracked' features loads of layered vocals laid on top of heavy, downtuned guitars and meaty riffs, not unlike one would expect from Atomic Opera or especially the Galactic Cowboys. As a matter of fact, Lordchain even cover the Galactic Cowboys's '9th of June.' Quite a surprise for fans of progressive metal and art rock. Though provoking lyrics that focus on Christian issues to boot..Lordchain is a Christian band. Jeff Grady and Kelly Matthews formed Lordchain in January 1990 under the name Eternity. Over the next 3 1/2 years,they would release several demo tapes and achieve local and national recognition. With the experimentation of musical styles from light rock to speed metal and thrash, the band settled into more of a straight-ahead groove metal vane when Bassist, David Fain joined in the summer of 1993. This lead to the band placing in MTV's Beach House Band Search in 1994. After receiving self produced music videos of original songs from acts worldwide, Eternity placed in the top 50. This certified the band as one of the top independent acts on the planet. In 1996 the name of the band was officially changed to Lordchain. The following year they released their first full length, self titled CD, which featured a rework version of the MTV award winning song "Follow Me." In 1998 the band regrouped and added Chris Bassham on guitar and vocals. This solidified the band and made it musically stronger than it had ever been. Over the years Lordchian has played with many well known artists such as Tourniquet, Bride, Seraiah. With the dawn of a new millennium, the band has only begun to create some of the greatest hard music the world has ever heard with the greatest message the world needs to hear. Styles and situations may have changed, but one thing hasn't, Lorchain's faith in Jesus Christ,This is Lordchain's debut album. The singer got a nice raspy voice. Music is rather groovy metal, has a little Bride-Snakes-vibe over it. It's a also a bit thrashy at times. Personal fave's are All I Can Say, Follow Me and Kiss That Kills. On the negative side the music slows down too much in some tunes. Lyrics mostly deals with the struggle to live for Christ in a dark and filthy world. All in all a good debut. With more tunes in the same vein as the three I mentioned, future releases will be very interesting(http://www.holymetal.org/)
