Demon Hunter and Wolves at the Gate

The band was started as a project by the two brothers as they had both been involved in other bands and decided to pursue music together. A self titled album was released in 2002 and despite not achieving commercial success, the band did gain a lot of coverage through press, critics and word of mouth as they toured the States with their nu metal sound. The next album came two years later and the group had a fan base in place for this release, it peaked at #22 and #23 on the Heatseekers and Christian charts.

Their next four albums all charted within the top 10 on the Heat charts and continued to slowly climb up the US Billboard album charts. Their peak position was obtained after the release of 'Extremist' in 2014 which peaked at #16. The band has a large Christian following and their lyrics and material are often very spiritual, they have had numerous singles appear on the Christian charts.

They recently received criticism by offering their music for use in the military after Metallica retracted their own material. A Navy SEAL linked to the killing of Bin Laden has commented on the issue: '''We stopped using [Metallica's] music, and then a band called Demon Hunter got in touch and said, 'We're all about promoting what you do.'" To date the band has sold over half a million records worldwide.
