The Moshketeers

Thrash Metal
Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

An American Christian thrash act from Albuquerque, New Mexico. They were originally active between 1985-1989 as Rapture. They began to change styles from heavy metal to thrash metal. In 1989, they changed their name and recorded a demo that same year. In 1992, their debut studio album was released. The Downward Spiral was the conceived title and remains as their lone full-length platter. In 1996, they recorded another demo, though nothing else surfaced afterwards. They quietly disbanded near the coming millennium.

Drummer Alan Tuma also played in Combat Faith and Ultimatum.
