Whitecross's album has been released by Pure Metal and is selling like mad all over the US! It cooks! It has to be the best production for any Pure Metal release yet. The mix makes the band sound even more like Ratt. Someone ought to give a copy to Stephen Pearcy. They took a lot of time in the studio and I think the result has paid off all their efforts. I think the world may be in for a pleasant surprise. I really feel like this album will do very well on the secular market. All the headbangers at Cornerstone were anxious to see how good Whitecross is in concert. They didn't let this headbanger down, as they rocked at several decibels for about an hour. The crowd went nuts! Rex's guitar solo, which is encapsuled on their album with the title "Nagasaki," was blazing. Everyone was blown away, including Bloodgood's David Zaffiro. The only thing that may have taken people by surprise was the non-conventional look the band has - as far as metal goes. I think they certainly made up for that with excellent music. I could tell their set really excited Glenn Kaiser. He could be seen backstage hugging the members and enthusiastically encouraging them. The lineup of this energetic metal band is: Scott Wenzel on vocals; Rex Carroll on guitar; John Sproule on bass; and Mark Hedl on drums.

Dead Zine 2002Reviewed by NecRoSarXHey, don't throw this baby out with the bath water. Ratt was one of my favorite metal bands back in high school, and the uncanny resemblance Whitecross has with said band is still the reason why I have the older Whitecross CDs in my collection. This was another evangelical-based metal band from the mid-1980s, the era when groups wore the tag Christian Metal like a badge. Though Whitecross does…Adonai Metal Rock #2Reviewed by Daniel BaillodTranslated from the original French First the sleeve... Wood, with the letters of the WHITE CROSS logo carved into it... and then four nails driven into the wood. A white cross drawn, and partially covered with a bloodstain... Not bad at all!! On the back cover side, a photo of WHITE CROSS... Ugh, how ugly they are! They really do not have the look... STOP!! Beware of appearances! The clothes do…Similar sounding releases
