It was the year 1985, and in the aftermath of a secret government project gone terribly awry, the legendary AGENT STEEL was unleashed upon the unsuspecting metal masses through their groundbreaking debut for combat records, Skeptics Apocalypse. Skeptics was a thrash metal tour de force, spewing forth such instant classics as "Agents Of Steel" and "Bleed For The Godz". Later that year AGENT STEEL continued their vicious assault with an EP, Mad Locust Rising, as well as a co-headlining tour with metal brethren OVERKILL and ANTHRAX on the "Speed Metal Attack - Metal hammer Roadshow" throughout Europe, and a triumphant performance at the Canadian Metal Festival with SLAYER, EXODUS, METAL CHURCH and HALLOWS EVE.
Unstoppable Force, their last recorded output, contained genre defining songs such as "Never Surrender" and the heads down title track "Unstoppable Force". Shortly after this 1987 release AGENT STEEL returned from whence they had arisen, leaving behind legions of fans and a legacy enduring to this day.
Agent Steel were one of the first to sign with the Combat label, along with MEGADETH, EXODUS, and MERCYFUL FATE. AGENT STEEL's songs dealt with supernatural topics, alien life forms and the lost city of Atlantis, setting them apart from their contemporaries. Their music was ahead of its time, combining fast, melodic riffing and operatic vocals with a devastating rhythm section.
Agent Steel influenced countless bands and musicians and the effects are still heard today. And now, on the eve of the millennium, Atlantis is rising once again! AGENT STEEL has returned with the Unstoppable Force line-up of Juan Garcia (guitars), Bernie Versailles guitars), Chuck Profus (Drums), Mike Zaputil (bass), and recent convert, vocalist Bruce Hall. With powerful new songs and lyrics still cloaked in the shadow of conspiracy and a recent signing to the mighty CANDLELIGHT records, AGENT STEEL is reclaiming their rightful spot among metal's elite.
Turn to the heavens and keep your eyes peeled for the arrival of their latest magnum opus this autumn, with extensive touring to follow. YOU CAN'T STOP IT .
