The O.C. Supertones
544,378 plays (34,354 listeners)
One thing that made the Supertones stand out in CCM was their embrace of secular music styles, even to the point of having the introductions of some songs by Metallica be put in their own songs. Examples included Metallica’s cover of “Am I Evil?” in “Adonai”, “Creeping Death” and “One” in their song “Supertones Strike Back”, and “Damage, Inc” as the intro to “Fade Away”.
Another aspect that made them stick out was their open attention to problems facing the church both culturally and doctrinally. Their songs encourage doctrinal (including Biblical) literacy and holding firmly to one’s faith.
The band has gone through a number of lineup changes, and in 2004 it was announced that the Supertones would be breaking up. Their last show was at Biola University in La Mirada, California on October 7, 2005; fellow Christian rockers Bleach (in a reunion show) and John Davis also played.
