Sacred Oath Bio

Sacred Oath has long been recognized in the heavy metal underground as one of the pioneers of the American power metal movement that began back in 1985. Their debut album, 'A Crystal Vision,' has become a cult-classic, and established the dark, progressive sound of the band that many have imitated. What some fans don't know is that Rob Thorne reformed Sacred Oath in 2007, and released 'Darkness Visible,' putting the band back into full active status with a subsequent European tour (including an appearance at Keep It True Festival) and a live album, 'Till Death Do Us Part,' that was featured on iTunes as one of the top live Metal albums of 2008. Sacred Oath has just finished a new studio album called simply ‘Sacred Oath,' including fourteen brand new songs that are sure to leave as lasting an impression as their debut, and establish the band as a vital creative force in the modern metal scene. Word is quickly spreading that this is one band you must see live, and they anticipate another European tour in 2009 to promote the new album.
