Jerusalem (Swedish band)

It was one of the first bands to combine Christian lyrics with a hard rock and heavy metal sound.

Jerusalem's message was primarily aimed at youth, with their lyrics describing the band's relationship to God in an ordinary, but radical way.

Their concerts have been described as a series of revival meetings which often included altar calls and occasionally exorcisms.

Lamb & Lion subsequently released Jerusalem's records in the United States and Canada.

[1] With the fourth album, Vi Kan Inte Stoppas (Can't Stop Us Now), Jerusalem changed their style to a more melodic rock sound[1] with lyrics that were not as overtly God-centered.
