Great picks for your favorite album covers! I almost grabbed my Rage Of Angels album to include in my honorable mentions. "The Gift Wrap" theme was harder to choose from than I initially realized, and I forgot a couple picks from my collection such as Bloodgood's "Detonation" album and Deliverance's "Weapons..." album. I suppose that's part of what makes this fun: trying to decide. Wishing The Ludlow Family a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Blessed New Year! -Kent

@@ludlowfamily718 Those are excellent pics! Loved the ROA album cover! Do you recall or heard of a band called Betrayal? They released an album in 1991 titled Renaissance By Death? The album cover was so-so, though the music was amazing! Prophets of Baal was my favourite tune off that album…..👍

​@@Lowend_Chug- Yes, that was a great album. I really liked the speed. Betrayal went on to merge with another favorite band of mine - Martyr. Great music 👍

All great picks that you chose! Each one of those is certainly a classic in presentation and musical excellence! Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Blessed New Year, Lowend_Chug! -Kent

Happy Thanksgiving, Ken! It's always good to hear from you! My Armada journey treks the same as yours: Underground Metal then Frontline. I certainly hope we see remasters/reissues of their other albums! -Kent

Rikk rocks! Thank you for checking out his episode; we are grateful! Hopefully Guardian1 will put out a new album sometime in the near future. -Kent

Indeed, great music with the Good News of Christ presented upfront! Armada rocks! Thank you for checking out the episode; we are appreciative! -Kent

Very cool that you met Doug, Hugh! Thank you for checking out the Armada episode; we are grateful! -Kent

Thanks for checking out the Armada episode, Jerry. We are grateful! "Frontline" is a great album, and if you can find it for a good price it is certainly worth the purchase! I had first encountered Armada from 1988's "Underground Metal" compilation album. I wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving, a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year, Jerry! -Kent

"Tough Love" is a great album, Jason! It was my introduction to Idle Cure back in 1988. Kansas is another favorite band in my collection, and I also dig Fleetwood Mac! Wishing you The Lord's blessings and thank you for taking time to comment! -Kent

It blesses my heart to hear about your personal journey walking with Jesus the Christ! He is the True and Living God and our Good Shepherd. Even when times will get tough, He will always deliver us (John 16:33). Blessings! -Kent

@@AREA312RockMetalVodcast thank u so much !!

Mark has a VHS video we made with Sojourn for a song called "Under the Gun", circa 1982. I'll try to bug Mark into digitizing it. Home made, and hilarious today, lol.

@ please!!!

They were wonderful to talk to!!! 😍😍😍

Thanks for sharing from your journey, Rudy. That's wonderful to learn that Idle Cure helped you learn the English language and that today you are an English teacher! Very cool! It was a privilege to be able to interview Mark and Steve, and "Talk It Out" happens to be one of my favorite Idle Cure songs as well. I wish you The Lord's continued blessings! -Kent

@@AREA312RockMetalVodcast Thank you very much for replying!!!

@@rudymendezsalazar6696 We are very grateful for you watching the episode and for sharing from your heart, Rudy! Blessings! -Kent

@@AREA312RockMetalVodcast love the channel, I loved you asked them about their band’s name! I could never figure it out until now

Thank you for watching!!! 👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you for watching and commenting, docmiles7! We are always grateful! Wishing you The Lord's continued blessings! -Kent

Very cool that you were able to see Idle Cure live back in the day, Phil! Thank you for watching and for commenting; we are genuinely appreciative! Blessings! -Kent

Very cool!!!

Thank you for taking the time to watch and to comment, Phil - that is an honor in itself! I greatly appreciate your work with the Phil Keaggy Band's "Emerging" album! Indeed, SCB had some terrific album art and Randy rocks! Blessings! -Kent

Thank you for taking the time to watch and to comment; we are grateful! Very cool about getting to sing into the mic at an Idle Cure concert! Indeed, Idle Cure was part of the soundtrack to my youth as well, and it would be cool if they could perform live once more or release one more album! Blessings! -Kent

It would be wonderful to see them live again!!!

Thanks for watching and for being a great source of encouragement, Jerry! We are genuinely grateful! May The Lord always be glorified! -Kent

Thank you Jerry!!! We appreciate your support!!! We’ve got some great interviews coming that we hope you enjoy!!! 🎶🎶

Hi, Brian! Idle Cure was always one of my rock staples as well back in the day, along with the other bands you'd mentioned. Very cool that your family and Steve were once "neighbors"! With the news of Mark's ministerial retirement looming, I'm hoping he might consider recording one more album. Thanks for watching and commenting! Blessings in The Lord! -Kent

Yes Brian!!! I would love to see new music from them!!

Greetings Brian! Great to hear from you, and thanks for checking in.

Thank you for watching and commenting! We are privileged to be able to conduct these interviews, and we're grateful for our friends who check 'em out. Wishing you The Lord's continued blessings! -Kent

I am not sure about vinyl??? But that would be awesome!!!

@@rexsmetzer I was like Kent whose first introduction to Idle Cure was Tough Love in 1988. All their music I have is on Cassette or CD and a Vinyl box set or something like that would be totally awesome!! 😎 👍👏 Thanks again Rex and Kent! Thoroughly enjoyed this Idle Cure interview.

Very cool that you were able to have seen Idle Cure live! Thank you for taking the time to watch and to comment; we are grateful! I believe the bandmates are all still friends and meet up occasionally (as seen via photos). Blessings! -Kent

It's our privilege to be able to conduct these interviews, and we are also privileged to have friends such as yourself take the time to watch and comment. Thank you! We are genuinely grateful! You nailed it with Idle Cure: melodic and anthemic! Blessings, and may The Lord be glorified! -Kent

Thank you for watching from Ireland and for commenting. We are genuinely grateful! Indeed, Idle Cure was a wonderful band! Wishing you The Lord's continued blessings! -Kent

Thank you for your support!!! We really appreciate it!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I remember Evie. My wife's parents loved her, too! -Kent

I can recall those times in which the parents didn't understand our "CCM". The "battle" of having to explain all the time bothered me to some degree back then, but looking back as a parent myself now, I can appreciate the fact that my parents meant well and were simply concerned for my well-being in accordance with their knowledge. I am glad that SCB and Bryan were utilized by The Lord to minister to you! Blessings! -Kent

Great song from "In the Kingdom"! Musically, it reminds me of "Hot For Teacher" by Van Halen. Rex is a shredder, no doubt. Blessings! -Kent

​@@AREA312RockMetalVodcastit's like a mix of Hot for teacher with the intensity of get up from 5150

No, they do not. Dave Roberts has been the band's lead singer since 2020. Whitecross has released a new album this year called "Fear No Evil", featuring Dave on vocals, Rex Carroll on guitar, Michael Feighan on drums and Benny Ramos on bass. Below is our interview link for Whitecross, featuring the current members. Blessings! -Kent ruclips.net/video/Im1wcJCEXs4/видео.html

@AREA312RockMetalVodcast God's hands is like a beautiful night ranger ballad

They're a great band, indeed! Thank you for watching and for commenting. Blessings! -Kent

Thanks for always being that wonderful encourager, Jerry! Rex and I are grateful for your friendship! Indeed, those Fighter albums are fantastic, and Billy is such an underrated guitarist - the man can shred when he wants to! Amy's solo album is great as well - a little poppier yet with some choice songs - but dumb me forgot to show it on camera. Doh! Wishing you The Lord's continued blessings, brother! -Kent

It was an honor to have Jim & Amy as our guests... We were grateful for the fellowship with them! Thank you for watching and for commenting; we are certainly grateful for that, too! Blessings! -Kent

Thanks for watching, Rick! Glad you were able to see Fighter at the New Union! Blessings! -Kent

Hey, Scott! Bro, I'm sorry that you weren't able to make the second round of fellowship. Jim had mentioned you when talking about Fighter playing at the New Union and the "hot griddle" incident! Jim and Amy certainly asked about you before we started rolling on camera. I am glad you were able to see Fighter back in the day along with a host of other great bands! Blessings, brother! -Kent

@@AREA312RockMetalVodcast It's a bummer I couldn't get it to work out, but this interview turned out great!! At least I was able to be there for the original one, and that was a lot of fun.

@@scottberglund4123 We were honored to have you with us, Scott! -Kent

I'm a Christian - and a metal head - at age 53. Thank you for watching and for commenting. Wishing you The Lord's continued blessings, Charles! -Kent

Very cool! Zion was a great band! I'm glad you were able to preserve some history back in 1984! Thank you for watching and commenting! -Kent

Very cool to know you have access to these historic recordings! Indeed, Ulf is the real deal! Thank you for watching and for commenting! -Kent

Always nice to hear from you, Ken. Same as with you: Upon my first discovering Sacred Warrior, every forthcoming album was an automatic purchase for me. Thank you for watching and for commenting; we are grateful! Blessings! -Kent

Thank you for watching and commenting; we are grateful! I really need to get the new Waiting in Darkness remastered album! Blessings! -Kent

We appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment, Terry! Please know we are grateful! Blessings in The Lord! -Kent

Hopefully we can have him as our guest for a future episode. Such a dynamic vocalist! -Kent

I concur with both statements! -Kent

Thanks for watching and commenting, Jerry; we are always grateful! Bruce's playing is so neat in that the heaviness and shredding - as found on the SW albums - have such a warm tone that I often forget how heavy the material is. Blessings in The Lord, brother! -Kent

Thank you for watching and commenting, Chris; we are grateful! We will try to remember to ask about local church involvement (keep in mind, our interviews are recorded a fair amount of time prior to their release). Sometimes, we simply ask what our guests are up to today, and they will mention that they "do this or that" in their church, so sometimes the question is automatically answered. Thanks again for watching! Blessings! -Kent

We will try!!! 😊

Me too! I love that song!!

Thanks for watching and commenting, Brian! Sacred Warrior is certainly a wonderful and inspirational band in music and Message! Indeed, they are awesome! Blessings! -Kent

Thanks Brian!! 😍😍
