Light This City was an American melodic death metal band from the Bay Area of San Francisco that formed in 2002. They released one independent album and three albums with Prosthetic Records until disbanding in 2008. Tyler Gamien and Ben Murray were the co-founders of Reflections of Ruin Records, where they released The Hero Cycle, being the band’s, and the label’s first release. They are noted for having a female lead vocalist, one of the few death metal bands to have one. In their various albums they worked alongside notable musicians such as Chuck Billy of Testament and Trevor Strnad of The Black Dahlia Murder.
