====== Redeemer ======

Heavy Metal\\
California, USA

Redeemer was a Rock/Metal group started by Bill Menchen in 1985. The band played around the Southern California area until 1989. In 1986 the band released a poorly recorded cassette independently in very limited numbers. After a few years, the band broke up, and the music was forgotten about. In 2007, the songs from that tape were re-recorded from scratch since the original tapes are not playable. For fans of Judas Priest, [[Barren Cross]], [[Saint]], Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath, and [[Stryper]].
