ABOUT THE ALBUM

Sacred Warrior - Live at Cornerstone Fest 2001

In the early 2000s, heavy metal’s mainstream popularity had waned, but the heart of the genre still beat fiercely within the Christian metal community. At Cornerstone Festival 2001, this pulse was revived, and one of the most significant moments came when Sacred Warrior took the stage for their long-awaited return. Hailing from Chicago, not far from Bushnell, IL, Sacred Warrior had been largely inactive but had recently begun to regroup, bringing with them a CD-R demo of new songs they had been working on. This performance was a monumental event in their career, marking a new chapter for the band as they showcased three unreleased tracks – "Come On," "Day By Day," and "Prince of Peace" – songs that would remain exclusive to this live performance and unavailable on any of their studio releases.

The 2001 concert became an iconic moment, not just for Sacred Warrior but for the Christian metal scene. It celebrated the perseverance and ministry of these bands that had weathered the lean years when metal was no longer the mainstream force it once was. The collaboration between M8 Distribution and Millennium Eight/Magdalene Records to host the “80’s Metal Retro Night with M8” at Cornerstone Festival that year was crucial in reigniting the fire of heavy metal. Sacred Warrior, alongside bands like Bride, Deliverance, Guardian, Recon, Trytan, and Daniel Band, brought the old-school sounds of metal back to the stage, proving that even in a changing music landscape, the genre still had a powerful message.

This reissue, remastered by Rob Colwell, ensures that the energy and spirit of that night are captured with enhanced audio quality. The 12-page booklet includes lyrics as sung live, along with a write-up by NoLifeTilMetal and reflections on the band's return. The new artwork, vastly improved by NLTM Graphics, visually amplifies the electrifying atmosphere of the performance.

Limited to 500 CDs, this reissue includes three unreleased tracks that are unavailable anywhere else – "Come On," "Day By Day," and "Prince of Peace" – making it an essential release for fans of Sacred Warrior and the Christian metal movement. With classic tracks from their previous albums and these rare new gems, the concert captures the essence of what made Sacred Warrior a cornerstone of the genre.

For fans of Queensryche, Fates Warning, and Dream Theater, this reissue is a testament to the lasting influence of Sacred Warrior in keeping metal alive and well during some of its most difficult years. Sacred Warrior’s performance at Cornerstone Fest 2001 remains a powerful affirmation of their music and ministry.

ABOUT THE ALBUM

DELIVERANCE - LIVE AT CORNERSTONE FEST 2001: The Triumphant Return

In the early 2000s, when the mainstream music scene was largely dominated by alternative and grunge, heavy metal was struggling to keep its relevance alive. The scene, which had once been the voice of rebellion and vitality, seemed to fade into the background. But for fans of Christian metal, a beacon of hope flickered at Cornerstone Festival 2001. Hosted by HM Magazine, Deliverance’s Live at Cornerstone Fest 2001: The Triumphant Return marked a defining moment. 

It was not just a concert – it was a statement of endurance and resilience. After years of inactivity, Deliverance returned to the stage in triumphant fashion, reaffirming their legacy and commitment to the heavy metal community. This performance became a key milestone in reminding us that metal was far from dead, offering a renewed sense of purpose for the genre in a challenging era.

M8 Distribution, in collaboration with Magdalene Records and Millennium Eight Records, played a pivotal role in this resurgence by putting on the “80’s Metal Retro Night with M8” at Cornerstone Festival 2001. This event was a celebration of classic heavy metal and ministry, featuring bands like Bride, Deliverance, Guardian, Recon, Sacred Warrior, Trytan, and Daniel Band. The night not only honored the music of the past but also highlighted the continuing influence of these bands' ministry in the face of adversity. It was a powerful reminder that heavy metal still had a voice and purpose, even during a time when mainstream music trends seemed to be leaving the genre behind.

Remastered by Rob Colwell for enhanced audio quality, this reissue brings a fresh life to an iconic performance. The 12-page booklet features lyrics as sung live, along with reflections from vocalist Jimmy P. Brown from both 2001 and 2025, shedding light on how this event served as a powerful catalyst for the band's return and its ongoing ministry through music.

The new artwork, vastly improved by NLTM Graphics, brings the energy of that night to life visually, honoring the spirit of the original release while adding a modern touch for today’s audience.

Limited to 500 CDs, this reissue is an essential release for fans of classic heavy metal, especially those who appreciate the sounds of Queensryche, Metallica, and Anthrax. Deliverance’s set includes timeless tracks like "Stay of Execution," "No Time," "Psalm 23," and "Victory", showcasing the band’s unparalleled musicianship and their ability to inspire both musically and spiritually.

Deliverance’s return to the stage at Cornerstone 2001 was a pivotal moment that played a vital role in keeping the pulse of heavy metal alive during lean years. For old fans and new listeners alike, this release is more than just a concert – it's a testament to the enduring power of music and ministry. For fans of Queensryche, Metallica, Anthrax!

ABOUT THE ALBUM

Bride - Live at Cornerstone Fest 2001 + 1 New

In the late '90s, Bride transitioned from their heavy metal roots to a more bluesy, modern rock sound, releasing a couple albums with Organic Records. However, in 2001, the band took a bold step in a different direction with their one and only album influenced by rapcore, a genre that had gained popularity through bands like P.O.D. and Thousand Foot Krutch. But Cornerstone Fest 2001 would see the band return to their metal roots in a big way, delivering a tight, energetic set of classic metal tracks that fans had been longing for. This performance was part of the 80’s Metal Retro Night with M8, a special event that celebrated the music and ministry of the Christian metal scene, and Bride was at their best, bringing back their legendary sound and showing that the band still had plenty of fire left.

This 2025 reissue brings the classic Cornerstone performance back to life, remastered by Rob Colwell for optimal sound quality. The 12-page booklet includes lyrics as sung live, fresh 2025 Dale Thompson reflections, and a lengthy write-up from the original release. The new artwork, vastly improved by NLTM Graphics, captures the energy and power of the live performance while adding a modern touch to the visual presentation.

Limited to 500 CDs, this reissue features all ten live tracks from Cornerstone 2001, including one unreleased song, "I Saw the Light/Power in the Blood Medley," making this release an essential piece for any Bride fan or lover of classic Christian metal.

Whether you’re revisiting the set after all these years or discovering it for the first time, this reissue is a powerful reminder that Bride’s music and ministry have always transcended trends and will continue to inspire listeners.

ABOUT THE ALBUM
Originally released in 1993, Learn marked the fifth studio release by L.A.-based metal pioneers Deliverance. Departing from their earlier fast-paced thrash roots, Learn showcased a brooding, mid-paced sound characterized by heavy, intentional riffs, distinctive bass lines, and soaring vocals. Jimmy Brown’s vocal delivery on this album evokes comparisons to legends like Geoff Tate (Queensrÿche), Eric Clayton (Saviour Machine), and even the progressive flair of Dream Theater, yet the band remains distinctly Deliverance, creating a soundscape uniquely their own.

Learn is a masterclass in epic, progressive heavy metal. With its thick, crunchy textures and deliberate pacing, the album invites listeners to savor every moment of the journey. This isn’t an album that rushes to the finish line—it’s one to be fully experienced, relishing the depth and artistry in each track. For many fans, Learn represents a pinnacle in Deliverance’s catalog, with Retroactive Records CEO Matthew Hunt describing it as “a greatest hits album in its own right,” where every song stands out as exceptional and timeless.

With the original black vinyl edition long sold out, fans now have a second chance to own this iconic album, this time on stunning orange vinyl. Limited to just 200 units, this special reissue includes a 12x12 full-color lyrics insert and features updated and enhanced artwork. The album has been meticulously mastered for vinyl by Rob Colwell, ensuring the best possible listening experience.
