They Said Christian Metal Was SECOND-RATE. Then Came SAINT

SAINT helped prove that Christian metal didn’t have to be second-rate. Formed in the early 1980s, SAINT became pioneers of Christian heavy metal—combining a powerful traditional metal sound with an unapologetically Christian message. In this video, we explore SAINT’s impact on Christian metal history, plus my personal connection with bassist Richard Lynch and guitarist Dee Harrington. If you love 80s Christian metal, Christian hard rock, and classic heavy metal, you need to know SAINT. PASTOR BRAD ON SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KcLd... PASTOR BRAD ON BANDCAMP https://pastorbrad.bandcamp.com APPLE MUSIC   / pastor-brad   A BRIEF BIO Pastor Brad is exactly who he sounds like, a Pastor named Brad--who is also an 80s style, Christian metal recording artist. Growing up during the golden age of metal, Brad picked up the guitar in 1982. In 1987 he became a Christian, a decision that revolutionized his life & continues to do so to this day. In 2004 he launched Pastor Brad Rocks as a platform for sharing his music with the world. To date, Brad has released more than two hundred songs! Brad has been blessed to work with several of his heroes! Richard Lynch & Dee Harrington (SAINT) appear on several songs on RESHREDDED (2006). Les Carlsen (Bloodgood) laid the lead vocal on HE LOVES ME (BREAK OUT, 2010) & Ken Tamplin contributed the lead vocal on TURN UP THE LIGHT (BREAK OUT 2010). CHRISTIAN METAL PASTOR Being both a Christian Pastor & a Hard Rock/Metal artist/music fan, Brad has a stong desire to serve the "heavy music" community. The Primary Aim of The Pastor Brad Rocks Channel is to Rock You (everyone) Up for Jesus with Classic Style Christian Hard Rock & Metal Music, & Practical Bible Teaching. Pastor Bob Beeman of Sanctuary International is another "Christian Metal Pastor" (who I respect deeply). My hope is that this channel, in concert with others like Pastor Bob's will serve the Christian Hard Music Community well and reach Hard Rock & Metal Spiritual Seekers--with the Gospel of Jesus Christ! HOW TO DESCRIBE PASTOR BRAD’S MUSIC? If you tossed Stryper, KISS, Iron Maiden, Whitecross, AC/DC, Barren Cross, Metallica, Idle Cure, Motley Crue, Petra, Judas Priest, SAINT, Ozzy Osbourne, Theocracy, Van Halen, Ken Tamplin, Scorpions, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, Randy Rhoads, Angus Young, Ace Frehley, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, and Peter Criss into a CHRISTIAN BLENDER and they came out playing Christian Hard Rock and Classic Metal Music, you’d have Pastor Brad’s classic 80s style Christian Hair Metal Music!
