Some bands play heavy. Others tear the veil between earth and heaven. HolyName bring the supernatural onstage—through trembling amps and a pulse of hope in every riff. Their new EP “Three Bar Cross”, out November 14 2025, declares that faith and metal’s brutality can stand side by side.
“Three Bar Cross” — Symbol and Meaning
The title references the three-bar cross—Trinity imagery and the journey from death to resurrection to new life. Four tracks merge meditation and aggression.
HolyName — Roots and Renewal
Fronted by Tommy Green (ex-Sleeping Giant), HolyName meld authentic evangelism with metallic force. “Stained Glass” (feat. Heal The Hurt) already showed the direction: wounds and worship, heaviness and vulnerability. This EP cements it.

- Blood — sacrifice and cleansing; a finale that refuses to fade.
