Background notes
Archive material and source history
Sacred Oath formed in Pittsburgh in 1984 with Rob Thorne on vocals. Their debut album 'A Lesson in Fire' came out in 1987 and included 'Drums of War,' a track that became a staple for the band. They've released other albums like 'Burning Desire' in 1989 and 'The Reckoning' in 1993.
Their songs often deal with heavy themes, titles like 'Battle Cry,' 'Darkness Visible,' and 'Face of Evil' give you a sense of their territory. The music is straightforward heavy metal with Thorne's vocals up front, built for live shows rather than subtlety.
Over time the lineup shifted, but Thorne has remained constant. The current group includes guitarists Bill Tsamis and Kenny Powell, bassist Jason Viebrock, and drummer Bobby Lucas. They put out a self-titled album in 2007 and have kept playing shows since.
