Rebellion

Originally released in 1988 on Intense Records, this was the band's debut full-length album. It has been remastered and re-released in 2010 by Intense Millennium Records with 2 bonus tracks, new and original cover art, 8 page booklet with lyrics and new liner notes from Pastor Bob Beeman.
The burgeoning Christian metal movement had several notable bands by the mid 1980's. None, however, took the progressive elements of pioneers like Queensrÿche and Fates Warning and combined them with the pure energy and heaviness present in much of the thrash metal of the time. Enter Sacred Warrior - a band that skillfully and successfully combined these two elements to create a metallic attack that rivaled many of their contemporaries, and stands the test of time as one of the greats of the era. Rebellion, the band s auspicious debut, capitalizes on that potent mixture by offering up searing riffs, lightning fast solos, soaring vocals, and a rhythm section that thundered with authority. Recorded at Opus Recording Studio, Gurnee, IL, USA.
Mixed at Sutton Place Recording Studio, Glendale, CA, USA.
