U.S. METAL WARRIORS VOL. 5: SANCTUM - Believers LP + OBI (Pre-Order)

Hailing from Florence,  New Jersey, SANCTUM is one of those (few) U.S. metal bands from the 80's, that despite releasing only one album with 6 songs back in 1991, they managed to gain a cult following through the years because all the songs they ever penned deliver high quality power metal music in the vein of early QUEENSRYCHE (EP and "Warning" era). And they are in no way QUEENSRYCHE clones as they manage to showcase a unique sound, cleverly blending their influences into classic U.S. metal tunes.

The album was available as a CD reissue from ARKEYN STEEL records a few years ago and as it was never officially released on vinyl format, we decided it was about time to get it right. So with the assistance of Christine Tsaprouni, we got in touch with Ray Babula, the original guitar player and main song writer of the band and agreed on releasing a killer vinyl edition that will feature remastered sound by Nasos Nomikos, lyrics, bonus songs and a larger than life extended interview with the band, thanks to the kind permission of Chris Papadakis who is a known metal journalist and singer of the great Greek band AFTERIMAGE.
