no edit summary
Whitecross is a [[Christian metal]] band that formed in [[1986]] in [[Chicago]], releasing their first recording the following year. Their early albums, which often invite comparisons to [[Ratt]], are laced with fast, technical [[electric guitar|guitar]] work. With the departure of guitarist [[Rex Carroll]] in [[1992]], the band's sound underwent a drastic change; so much so that many Whitecross fans show a strong preference for either the earlier or later work exclusively.
There are plans to record new material for CD release as well as a possibility of Rex doing a guitar solo CD.
