Lizzy Borden is a hard-edged heavy metal project that initially emerged in the early 1980s during the glam metal boom, characterized by its namesake frontman and founder, Lizzy Borden. The band was a part of the Los Angeles metal scene and quickly became known for their theatrical live shows and shock rock styled image, reminiscent of acts like Alice Cooper and Kiss. A blend of macabre theatrics with a melodic metal sound and power ballads garnered them a dedicated following, despite the niche nature of their concept and aesthetic.

Throughout the decades, Lizzy Borden has seen several lineup changes with the constant presence of its lead vocalist and namesake maintaining the spirit and creative direction of the band. Albums like "Master of Disguise" and "Deal With the Devil" are marked by soaring vocals and intricate guitar work, showcasing the band's skill in crafting memorable metal anthems. The more recent album, "My Midnight Things," released in 2018, saw the band returning after a lengthy hiatus and demonstrated their ability to adapt their classic sound to the contemporary heavy metal context, while keeping its identity intact. Songs such as "Long May They Haunt Us" and "The Scar Across My Heart" continue to exhibit the band's flair for combining poignant lyrics with heavy, yet melodic instrumentation. Despite the ever-changing music landscape, Lizzy Borden stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of shock rock and traditional heavy metal.
