Lethal - PROGRAMMED Img

Any other fans of this semi-forgotten prog/power band from Kentucky, USA? I've been listening to their 1990 release (PROGRAMMED, on Metal Blade) quite a bit lately. The most obvious comparisons (to me) would be WARNING/RAGE era Queensryche or the first two discs by Crimson Glory, with a small hit of thrash metal in a few places. Dang good stuff. Terrible album cover though. Haha.

I believe they released one album after PROGRAMMED (the name of it completely escapes me at the moment) before more or less disappearing off the face of the Earth, though I understand they did a reunion gig at the Keep It True Festival a year or two ago.

So whaddya say? Good band? Bad band? Release the hounds!

Here's the video for "Immune" off of PROGRAMMED.

Awesome disc!

They still sound AMAZING live BTW! Can't wait to hear this new album they've been working on.

I think the lyrics on this album are really bad, one of the few criticisms I have. The music is very well-done and the vocals are excellent.

I think the subsequent "Your Favorite God" EP is junk.

Where have you been hiding the 2 or 3 years or so since I discovered this band, FF? I've been constanlty plugging them ever since!! This band is awesome, and probably my best metal discovery since the 80's! I like everything I've heard, but Programmed is easily my favorite. Looking forward to new stuff!

I found a copy on ebay awhile ago pretty cheap if I recall. Didja check there?

We must've discussed this band before, cause I never heard of them until I heard some glowing reports here, so I tracked down a copy. Good stuff, but didn't they change their sound on their follow-up disc?

Yeah I did, I didnt realize it was reissued in that one series they did so it was actually pretty cheap.

I found my used copy at secondspin's store not long ago. Was pretty much a blind buy based on the year/label. Was very glad I picked it up. The more listens I gave it, the more I liked it. Easily belongs on any underrated or should have been bigger lists.

Yup, according to Metal Archives, they hailed from Hebron, Kentucky, wherever that is.

It's probably near Cincinnati.

That's awsome. I actually know some of the guy's out of this band. Great group. They only play here about once a year. Once every other year. They put on a great live show. Take's me back to when music had heart and passion...

Hey y'all - I was just bumming around lookin thru CDBaby's $5 deals (haven't done that in awhile) and you can get Lethal's POISON SEED from them for five skins (if you order two others from the $5 bin, that is). Not bad, think I may order that bad boy.

Never heard the second album, although I thought it was more of a grunge-like affair?

I've heard the "grunge-like" comparison too but I listened to samples of a couple of songs on CDBaby's site and it sounded pretty good to me. I guess I'll know for sure whenever I order it. Laughing
