Such sad news that Mike Howe has passed away, rest in peace Mike. You were back where you belonged and gave us two more fantastic albums. It goes without saying you will be missed

[@Mrbignutzful]

RIP MIKE HOWE ! Tragic that this band has lost 2 great vocalists during its lifetime ! Mike was making a great comeback with MC, life cut way too short to reap the rewards !

[@translationstations]

Sad news indeed. No judgment here for whatever happened. Such a powerhouse! Always 101% given through those pipes. We have point A to point Z. Goal is to kick ass at every point in between...

Growing up in the 80’s as a teenage metal/thrash/speed/hardcore, etc head I think Metal Church was and still is one of the most underrated bands in history! Kirk Arrington was such an incredible drummer and one of my favs

[@tooligan113]

Straight outa 80's MTV Metal Church playing I Am Santa Clause with DJ Rockfish on vocals in Seattle for the KISW Bob Rivers show. Predating Grunge they were there with WASP, Black Flag, RATM, Killing Joke, Fates Warning to name a few. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYO6Y6Olist9aZY

[@Johnjohnlamenace]

Mike Howe sounds horrible compared to Wayne

[@PlacidDragon]

Also no disrespect to Mike Howe, which had a good voice (its not good here though, his voice is cracking, massive pitch issues, etc).. But he was never anywhere near to David Wayne, who was in an entirely different league.

[@lucypoopies]

My personal favorite track of Mike Howe's. God's of Wrath my favorite of David Wayne's. Hard to pick a favorite between those two.

[@fermiticus4034]

Back in the day (early 90's), I was a huge fan of these guys. Then Howe was gone....along with a little piece of my soul. So, SO glad he's back!!!! And, FINALLY, after nearly 30 years of listening to them, I got to meet them last year. Great bunch of dudes!

[@iamalpharius9483]

I listened to Fake Healer, Anthem to the Estranged, Badlands and Watch the Chikdren Pray every day my senior year all wrestling season.

[@Metalmaniac82]

Mike Howe is A Great Singer but When Metal Church first came out in the 80s David Wayne was a true vocal genius... So sorry he was taken from us so early in his carreer. Just Listen to there first Album Metal Church or some songs from it and you will hear what I mean.
