Godspeed (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Godspeed were an American Heavy metal band formed in 1994 (not to be confused with the Christian rock band Godspeed (Christian Band) that released their first EP January 1994). Following the release of their debut (and only) album entitled Ride (album) (produced by Rachel Bolan of Skid Row),[1] the band embarked on 2 high profile tours as opening act for Black Sabbath, Dio and Cathedral. They also gained some attention after an appearance on the Black Sabbath tribute album, Nativity in Black where they teamed up with guest vocalist Bruce Dickinson (of Iron Maiden) to record a cover of the Black Sabbath classic, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.
Their initial momentum could not be sustained and the band disbanded in 1996.
