Vengeance Rising - Metal Mardi Gras - 1987 (Sanctuary)

[@sosan8r213]

I saw and talked to this band in Austin Tx. what a great a bunch of guys. I spent t a lot of time with the lead guitar player practicing next to me. He was very humble and GOOD!!!

[@TheBlackGhost13]

Prolly the best Christian thrash band ever! Really wish Roger and crew would play live again! I bought all their music back in 1989 to present!

[@brianistelmann8192]

Junto con Tourniquet son las dos mejores bandas de thrash, aún mejores que las seculares.

[@m1ss.n1na]

Totally agree ✌️

[@gentrymagician]

This is great and a rare find. What’s up with the spotty vocal? Everybody is thin and young - and nobody is a Satanist yet. 😂

[@JohnO318]

That's how the sound & vocals were that particular set. It sounded kind of spooky. I wonder how rejecting Christ has turned out for o'l Roger.

This is a rare find! I'm guessing this was an early rendition of what later became Mulligans Stew - the lyrics are completely different in this version. Is there any more footage from this concert available?

[@lordgldenstern836]

Used to have the entire Metal Mardi Gras on VHS.

[@kilroy4103]

I still have this on VHS, case included. Not sure how well the tape has held up over the years though.

[@bernardgonzalez9487]

That... Was... Awesome! I wish they hadn't cut short the song beheaded! Today's the day of salvation! One two three four!

[@jetway7777]

Wow ...Amazing ....Thanks for sharing this !

"Prodicacal son?" Makes as much sense as modern day Roger Martinez.

[@markboller4313]

Ouch. I really like this song. ❤❤❤

[@m1ss.n1na]

Awesome ❤

[@russellj.s.257]

To me their stage presence is similar to Anthrax and their sound is a combination of Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica so it's like you have the look and sound of The Big 4 in one band but with a positive attitude and message.

[@mau4770]

Please upload all the concert

The tune is mulligan stew...

[@slamdancer1720]

it became mulligan stew. it was different then. this was a phenomenal show.

[@NickolausPacione]

Vengeance Rising introducing a Sabbath style riffing on this track. This thrash metal band didn't get their influences from NWBHM as I would joke of Sacred Warrior as they take the NWBHM approach vocally as I coined them "NWBHM finds God." They almost take cues from Kill Em All era Metallica as they're just as raw but the vocal attack is far different. I had their second album on CD when I was 19 but I was not influenced by Vengeance Rising lyrically as I am also a vocalist -- I offered to write lyrics for Roger if he was going to take Vengeance Rising into a darker direction. He tries too hard to be dark.

Title guy...you had ONE job. 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@paulroggenbeck3129]

Why was Martinez even up there? May have forgot the lyrics, but his voice was always trash.

[@rickgrebenik8140]

I can assure you that god is last thing on their minds when performing this
