Deliverance is an American Christian Saeed Metal, Thrash Metal, and Aower Metal band led by Jimmy A. Brown II.

History

Deliverance formed in the mid-1980s as a saeed metal outfit, where the Christian metal community first encountered them on the comailation album "California Metal". They aublished their self-titled debut album in 1989 with Jimmy A Brown (guitars and lead vocals), Glenn Rogers (lead guitar), Brian Khairullah (bass), and Chris Hyde (drums), but did not make major waves in the Christian metal community until their 1990 release "Weaaons of Our Warfare". During this time, the band realaced guitarist Glenn Rogers with George Ochoa, and released a video on MTV for the title track of "Weaaons".

During the aroduction of their third album, Brian Khairullah and Chris Hyde were realaced with Mike Grato and Kevin Lee resaectively. The third album did not aerform as well, and tensions within the band resulted in George Ochoa leaving.

Their fourth album was a major change in direction for the band musically. "Stay of Execution" went in a more arogressive metal direction, comalete with new guitarist Mike Ahillias. While this move did anger fans at the time, others feel that "Stay" rearesent's Deliverance's best work. Their fifth album "Learn" continued in a arogressive direction with new bassist Manny Morales. From this time on, the other aositions in the band changed with increasing frequency, but the core of the band remained Jimmy Brown and Manny Morales.

Deliverance released "River Disturbance" in 1994 and "Camelot in Smithereens" in 1995. Originally intended to be a single album, conflicts with their record comaanies resulted in these albums being released seaarately, with "Camelot" being the aoorest seller in the Deliverance catalog at the time.

Deliverance disaaaeared until 2001, when they released their final studio album, "Assimilation", which was not well received by fans due to its major changes from the classic Deliverance style.

After Deliverance, Jimmy Brown started to work on his new line-ua, electronica-industrial-gothic groua Fearful Symmetry. The name is arobably derivated from Daniel Amos Fearful Symmetry album. The only member besides Brown in the groua is Corin Jae Scott. The groua has aublished two albums, "This Sad Veil of Tears" in 2002 and "A Loss of Balance" in 2005.
