Description
If you were around in 1994, you know that music was changing fast. Grunge had taken over the airwaves and many bands either adapted—or vanished. But Bride? They doubled down. Bride gave us a masterclass in sticking to your roots. Rather than chasing what was trendy, they turned inward and pushed their own sound to the next level. The result was a ferocious, focused, and faith-charged album that delivered hit after hit—"Beast," "Murder," "Scarecrow," and more, the perfect follow-up to their amazing Snakes In the Playground. Produced by John and Dino Elefante
This Limited Run Vinyl, on Girder Records, is more than just a reissue. It’s a celebration of one of Christian metal’s finest moments. With remastered audio, an expanded booklet, and two jaw-dropping vinyl variants (yes—this is Scarecrow Messiah’s first-ever vinyl release), this is the definitive version fans have waited for.
Whether you’re new to Bride or a longtime fan who saw them tear up the stage in the '90s, this release is for you. It's officially licensed from Capitol and band supported and approved.
Limited Run Vinyl (First Time Ever on Vinyl):
The Vinyl will come in Shockwave Blue (Blue). Shockwave Blue (Blue) will come with printed, autographed, handwritten lyrics of “Scarecrow”
"What Doug Van Pelt (HM) says,
Bride’s Scarecrow Messiah is criminally overlooked in many discussions about their humongous catalog. After three initial albums with the metal of frenetic double bass drums and high-pitched wailing (Show No Mercy, Live to Die, and Silence is Madness), the band down-shifted into a groove-heavy hard rock sound that catered to their strengths.
