Heavy metal

Metal Church is a Heavy metal act. Their sound grew out of Heretic, Joan Jett, Sanctuary and Deep Purple. Those roots explain a lot about how Metal Church arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Overkill, Savatage, Testament, Nuclear Assault and Kreator, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Alice Cooper, Motörhead, Panzerchrist, Pantera and Warbringer, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 38 connections around Metal Church, reaching back through Heretic and forward to Alice Cooper.
