Agent Steel

A long-running West Coast heavy metal group founded by vocalist Johnny Cyriis, Agent Steel emerged in the mid-'80s with an uncompromising and unrelenting sonic attack that combined elements of speed and thrash metal with classic, melody-driven New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The band issued two full-length efforts, including 1985's acclaimed Skeptics Apocalypse, before disbanding in 1988. A different iteration of the group re-formed in 1999 and released Omega Conspiracy and two more albums before calling it quits in 2010. Agent Steel was resurrected for the third time in 2019, with Cyriis leading the charge, and two years later they unleashed their sixth long-player, No Other Godz Before Me.
