WEAPONS OF GOD
Weapons of God is a Christian Metal band from Dayton, Ohio,
formed by singer/guitarist Steve McGowan in 2014.
The name of the band was inspired by the verses of the Bible,
Ephesians 6:10-20,“The Armor of God."
In 2016, they made their debut after veteran Singer/Guitarist Leon Black joined the band.
After being signed by Roxx Productions in 2018, they recruited veteran bassist Ed Girard (former member of "Four Star Revival") who joined the band, and in July 2019, their self-titled debut album, “Weapons of God” was released at the Chains Unchained festival in Aurora, Missouri.
Their sophomore album titled, “The War Within US” was released in September 2021, with both albums having had good reviews.
In late 2023, Jason Harmon joined the band as our interim drummer to make the current line-up.
