Metal Church Update

Blabbermouth has posted an update on Metal Church from their frontman, Ronnie Munroe. Here are a few short excerpts with a link at the bottom to read the update.

“As we start recording the new songs, I want to take a moment and answer a few questions that we get over and over. The first one is when people ask if METAL CHURCH is a Christian band. “

“The name started when Kurdt [Vanderhoof] lived in an apartment in San Francisco and everyone came there to play. They nicknamed it the ‘Metal Church’ and that is where the band name came from. We are not secular, although METAL CHURCH has always tried to write thought-provoking lyrics about life, money, war, politics etc. Things we can all identify with.”

“I hear over and over METAL CHURCH being one of the pioneers of thrash. Mr. Kurdt Vanderhoof is a musical genius, in my opinion, but the label I want to give him is that he is a great guy and good friend.

“It is is our nature to resist change and METAL CHURCH has had its share of change. METAL CHURCH has also stayed true and as I see the younger fans banging their heads to our music just like I did at their age and I know all is good in this world. Metal is here to stay and is being kept alive by the fans and now by their children. How f***ing cool is that!!!!!! Being a parent myself, I know it is hard to find things to have in common with your teenager but this music has built that bridge.

“So, as we record the new music that will be released this year, we do this for you, the fans, and for the love of the music.
