In the year MMVI, Franky Vitriol and J.J. Harris forged a bond over a Gibson Flying V and a pair of leather pants. Soon after, Harris recruited longtime allies Gustavus Adolphus and Johan Sebastian Rock, the rhythm section known as The Gods Of Thunder, and Vitriol called upon former mate Syd Distic to lead the charge. Amadis was born...
When last we left our heroes, grave peril was at hand. The long arm of the law had come at last to take payment from J.J. Harris for the deeds of his murky past. It was uncertain when he would return or if the metal band Amadis could withstand the loss of their swarthy axeman. But now, thanks to his boundless charisma and dashing good looks, J.J. is back sooner than anyone had dared hope and Amadis once again prepares to face down evil with their fierce licks and well-leathered might.
But alas! The future still holds many a mystery to behold! It seems that Johan Sebastian Rock has heard the call of his ancestral home. As he prepares to embark on a gallant journey across the seas and into the Germanic wastelands to seek word of his people, his mates in Amadis make ready a hero's farewell. This night shall be remembered for the ages as a night of warriors and heroes, a night when all around were gathered together to honor a valiant brother in the true metal glory that he has earned in the fields of battle. This night of mayhem and celebration will be remembered for all time as...

Long ago when the world was shrouded in darkness and the peddlers of false metal roamed the earth in hoards, five warriors arose out of the dark mountians of Verde to squash the unbelievers and prove their valor by playing the loudest metal to ever shake the earth. Long was their quest and many heads did roll, but in the end they had amassed a loyal following of immortals hell-bent on true metal and the demise of all that is false. Three years later after a long deserved rest in Valhala, Arkain returns to retake their rightful throne as the true metal kings! Hail!
