Formed in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada during the mid-'80s, DISCIPLES OF POWER is the brainchild of guitarist/vocalist Hart Bachmier, who steered the group through more than a decade of demo recordings, record label woes, lineup changes, and four full-length albums-Power Trap, Ominous Prophecy, Invincible Enemy, and Mechanikill-before the band dissipated during the late-'90s. Throughout that time, Bachmier developed his high-speed tech-thrash attack toward an increasingly diverse and death metal-leaning approach; relentlessly promoting DISCIPLES OF POWER to the point of literally taking a Greyhound bus across Canada selling merchandise out of suitcases for a spell in the early-'90s. DISCIPLES OF POWER's live résumé was boosted through opening slots for such legends as ANNIHILATOR, ANVIL, EXCITER, FORBIDDEN, RAZOR, SACRED REICH, and many more.
