Get ready for a monumental event in Christian metal history as Vengeance takes the stage at Immortal Fest on July 27, 2025! Fans of the legendary band are in for a treat with the return of the original lineup—save for the vocalist—bringing their classic brutality back to life. Immortal Fest promises to be the place where thrash meets worship, and Vengeance is set to deliver a performance that will resonate with both longtime followers and new fans alike.
The band’s lineup for this epic show includes:
- Luke Easter (Tourniquet) on vocals

This special occasion marks not only a reunion of some of Christian metal’s most influential musicians but also a celebration of Vengeance’s groundbreaking legacy. With classic albums like Human Sacrifice and Once Dead, Vengeance pioneered a sound that continues to inspire headbangers worldwide.
A Personal Connection to Vengeance
As a personal note, I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Roger Dale Martin and the band for offering me the opportunity to step into the vocalist role for this incredible band and event. In addition, I appreciate Anthony Gober of Anchor Merchandising for referring me for the gig, and Pastor Bob Beeman of Sanctuary for his endorsement.
Growing up, Vengeance was more than just a band to me—it was a formative part of my youth. I spent countless hours headbanging, playing air guitar, and belting out the lyrics to Human Sacrifice and Once Dead. Their music shaped my vocal style for my own band, Mangled Carpenter, and those memories remain some of the most cherished of my life.
Though I was unable to accept the gig for personal reasons, I am thrilled to see Luke Easter stepping up to the mic. With his incredible tenure in Tourniquet, Luke is certain to deliver a vocal performance that will melt faces and leave the crowd in awe. Trust me, you do not want to miss this!
Don’t Miss the Show of the Year
Vengeance’s return is a testament to the enduring power of their music and the passion of their fans. Whether you’ve been with them since the beginning or are discovering their crushing riffs for the first time, this show is set to be a historic moment in the world of Christian metal.
Immortal Fest is shaping up to be one of the most unforgettable festivals of the year, and Vengeance is leading the charge. Mark your calendars for July 27, 2025, and prepare for an evening of heavy music, faith, and unrelenting metal mastery. See you in the pit!
