Angelica

Heavy Metal
Renfrew, Ontario, Canada

Revolving around the guitar-playing and songwriting abilities of Dennis Cameron, this Canadian Christian rock band issued four albums in the late 80s and early 90s. Cameron got his start by playing in Canadian secular bands Antix and Masquerade before striking out on his own after becoming a Christian in 1987. Following the release of two critically acclaimed demo tapes, Cameron faced the option to either join Holy Soldier or Bloodgood or to sign with Intense Records. He chose the record deal and went on to record four full length albums with Intense under the name Angelica. Walkin' in Faith achieved a measure of crossover support from the secular heavy rock fraternity, impressed by Cameron’s guitar playing.

After Angelica, Cameron formed a band called Cynical Limit. He also played with Michael Sweet's solo band for a little while.
