hammer and nail
the guitarist rex caroll is as good they come ,,thanks for doing this shane d you rock brother
I used to live in Nashville and ended up going to the same church as the lead singer. He was one of the nicest, most soft spoken guys I've ever met. I would've never guessed he was in a hard rock band. I love that you're channel is open to all expressions of hard rock/metal.
Rex Carroll is the guitarist. One of the best ever.
I have all of WHITECROSS CDS, THEIR NEW CD JUST CAME OUT ,FEAR NO EVIL, in 2024 I met them 3 times in concert, I bought their first cassette in 1987 WHITECROSS by WHITECROSS
I'm listening "Because Of Jesus, My old wife is gone" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I spit my coffee out of my nose at this part.
🤘🤘
I got to see Whitecross in my hometown of Pikeville, KY back in 1991 largely due to the fact that the guy who promoted them somehow got the biggest radio station in the area to play a couple of Whitecross songs pretty much around the clock for a few weeks. Because of Jesus was one of the songs played, on a top-40 pop station no less! The Whitecross gig at Pikeville College was SOLD OUT as a result and this was in a small eastern KY town! There are decent concert venues there now, but in 1991 there was nothing! Great band with a world-class guitarist in Rex Carroll! Thanks for the reaction video Shane!
I'm just across the Kentucky state line.
Pikeville, wow! I'm over in Dry Ridge. My father in law grew up in Turkey Creek. We were just out that way last year. Small town for sure. Whitecross must've lit that town up! Awesome, brother!
Whitecross guitarist Rex Caroll was also in a band called King James with Stryper bassist Tim Gaines & Stryper drummer Robert Sweet.
I’d forgotten how good this song was. Used to have the cassette! Need a digital copy!
I should remember by now that this is the band with the Stephen Pearcy sounding guy....a decent jam, especially on a Sunday! Now, if only the real Stephen had a little bit of "Because of Jesus" is his life, maybe he would not have turned into such a hot mess but I guess he had some life lessons to learn. Also, if this kind of music were around the while I was a kid in Vacation Bible School (in the early to mid-70's), maybe I would have paid more attention.....
Check out Shout - Borderline . very Whitesnake vibe
When you do Holy Soldier you should do their cover of. GIMME SHELTER. In my opinion way better than the Stones version
Back in the day in high school, I had a tape on which I’d recorded this album on one side and “State of Control” by Barren Cross on the other side. Wore that one out in my car! Brings back memories.
Straight Through The Heart is my fav Whitecross song
Hammer and Nsil is my favorite album by Whitecross.
Dude your comments were awesome. Thank you so much for your review. 😇🙏👍
one of the first concert i saw as a Christian because of my beautiful brother n law 89
I grew up listening to Whitecross, Petra, Holy Soldier, Gaurdian, Stryper, and Tourniquet. All awesome bands! They definitely were a huge influence in my style of music. Of course, when I became a teenager, I started listening to the mainstream stuff too, but the Christian metal c'mon in my opinion, is still just as legit. Diggin your channel man. Subbed!
JESUS LOVES YOU BROTHER ASK Jesus in your heart and you will be saved
Actually the bio gets something wrong.Rex Carrol left the band before the Equilibrium album. The band wen in more of an alt metal direction. It was controversial among fans because it was so different, but Equilibrium is my favorite of theirs. Resurrection Band and Holy Soldier are also well worth checking out.
I love that you ask questions throughout your process. Ask tough questions. Get real answers.
May God bless your journey my man!!
Thank you, I will
Check out Saint, Sacred Warrior, Messiah Prophet, Stairway, Angelica, Die Happy, Rage Of Angels, Signum Regis, X Sinner
Love this song
As a former Christian, and former Satanist (now Agnostic), I will always appreciate the amazing and catchy riffs of the Christian artist Rex Carroll.
Oz fox plays with blood good in video. He joined the band took over David zafforio lead guitar
Thank you Shane for being so objective with Christian artists like Whitecross. I really enjoy your channel. Another band you might want to take a taste of is Jerusalem. I love Whitecross. Rex Carroll is as good a guitarist that you'd find. They have a new lead singer and new album.
Awesome...........
The Dove awards is an equivalent to the Grammy awards for the Christian market.
I have actually meet them at Cornerstone festival in 1987 and listen to their master tapes for this album. Extremely poor quality, but it turned extremely good due to post-production. The 1987 album was the re-recording of this album ...
By Demand is a best of compilation. 1987 was a re-recording of the 1987 self titled debut album Whitecross. You left off the album Flytrap.
Oh man. I collected all kinds of Metal back in the 80s. Barren Cross was another favorite Christian type hard rock.
Thanks for the review. Brings back a lot of memories. Great song.
Rex Carroll, Oz Fox, Michael Sweet could shred with the best of them back in the day! Christian metal bands could bring it! Whitecross has a more blues based sound but they flat out rock!
Great react #Brazil
You're a funny dude! Enjoying your channel. I saw Whitecross together with Resurrection Band and Veni Domine in the 80s and they rocked my world.
Hey every time Rex writes a riff it's gold buddy get that straight
These fuys definitely sounds like the secular band Ratt, i have seen whitecross many times, loved it
❤
I love this band keep up the good work god bless you
You should check out Idle Cure - Breakaway . this is like the Paul Stanley side of Kiss
Loved White Cross. Saw them in concert 3 times. Seems like Christian bands back in the day tried to sound like other bands. Barren Cross was the Christian Iron Maiden, White Cross was the Christian Ratt,
I saw them back for their "Hammer amd Nail" tour......i thought the band kicked ass.
Recommend Barnabas. Anything from them, but the albums Approaching Light Speed and Feel The Fire are my favorites. Little Foxes has some great stuff too.
Kudos to Mr. Diablo for reacting to Christian metal. There are certain media outlets that refuse to. And believe it or not, it's probably due to the idea of Separation of Church and State. In other words (tongue in cheek), Mr. Diablo would theoretically be guilty of proselytizing.
However, Enigma records was in favor of pushing Stryper's Christianity. They felt it made them unique as I understand it.
time for more Virgin Steele? My vote would be for "Mind, Body, Spirit"
They are very good Christian band with an amazing guitar player named Rex Carroll. Listen to his song Nagasaki.
Another band you should listen to is “The Brave”. Evie’s little garden is a great song also We’re not In Kansas anymore. They have a new album named “Gravedigger”. Play that sometime. Thx and I love your channel
that album isn't from '91. more like '88. triumphant return is after hammer & nail, and then in the kingdom was '91.
Thank you Jeff for doing the 80s & 90 christian metal. I'm loving it.
Back in the 90s I loved all the christian metal bands and still killing it
May I suggest a christian band X- Sinner they sound like the Bon Scott ac/dc.
Demon hunter is a good band to
Narnia - The Witch And The Lion (check it out)
gonna do it for ya my friend, hold tight, it's gonna be a few weeks, but I will do it for you!
I'm sure you will enjoy it. It rocks, especially the guitar solo.
React to the Resistance by Skillet please!
Brain head Welch i think i spelled it right the guitarest from Korn
