Pariah

Pariah's roots date back to the early 80's, when they were known mainly as Satan and also, for a brief time, as Blind Fury. After releasing several fine albums (notably Suspended Sentence (as Satan) and Blaze Of Obscurity), the abrupt departure of then-vocalist Michael Jackson (and Steve Ramsey and Graeme English's subsequent joining of Skyclad) led to the band's eventual breakup. The core of Ramsey/English/Tippins reunited in 1997, recruiting two new members, and released the fine Unity album. Despite the length of time between recordings, Unity doesn't miss a beat, as it melds perfectly with the previous albums without sounding dated. At this time it appears the reunion was a one-off, and the band is once again dormant.

Note: no relation to the American metal band that released To Mock A Killingbird some time ago.
