Sacred Warrior is a Christian heavy metal band formed in 1988 and based in Chicago, Illinois. Their music is often compared to that of Queensrÿche or Iron Maiden.
The band was formed out of a general market metal band known as Nomad, which formed in 1985. Subsequent to the conversion of guitarist Bruce Swift to Christianity, he led fellow band members Tony Velasquez and Rey Parra. He also converted Rick Macias, who had been a bouncer at a nightclub.
Their first album, Rebellion, was released in 1988 and supported its release on a tour with Rez in 1989. The album impressed Dave Reynolds, who rated it with KKKK1/2 on its review for Kerrang! in February 1989: "It actually had my head banging away for all it's worth!".
