Salem’s Childe

Indiana metal outfit Salem’s Childe are long-time veterans of the metal scene, with the band’s members having performed from basements to stadiums around the US over the course the last two decades. The collective experience of the band’s members means that Salem’s Childe as a whole is no stranger to the national stage. Add to that local radio support and a sound that sets the band apart from its peers and it’s no wonder why Salem’s Childe is a known force with a recognizable name.

With influences that include Machine Head, Tool, Savatage, Lamb of God, and more, Salem’s Childe offers a hard-hitting and violently energetic mix of melody and aggression. And while those influences are resonant in the band’s sound, Salem’s Childe has been described as having a genre-defying sound that stands on its own while being able to keep the company of bands like As I Lay Dying, In Flames, Godsmack, and others. Salem’s Childe is a perfect storm of thrash, groove, prog, and modern hard rock that finds itself as equally at home in the mainstream as it does the underground.
