Hailing from the Twin Cities, Minnesota, they have become a symbol of the revival in Christian extreme metal, merging technical proficiency with a mission to convey a message of faith and redemption through their music. Their self-titled EP "Taking the Head of Goliath," released in 2018, immediately carved out a place for them within the genre, displaying their capability to balance brutality with a sense of melodic purpose.

Their subsequent release, "Beyond Brutal Live," dropped in 2019 and captures the raw energy of their live performances, serving as a testament to their presence on the stage and connection with fans. The single "Cord of Three Strands," released in 2021, continues to underscore their commitment to the heavy music scene while being outspoken about their values. Taking the Head of Goliath’s intense and impassioned approach to metal music, coupled with their evangelistic zeal, positions them not just as entertainers but also as a voice within a subculture that often grapples with existential and spiritual themes.
