Savage Grace were one of the original LA heavy metal bands to come out of the early 80's. They first appeared as Marquis De Sade but changed their name
to Savage Grace and appeared on "Metal Massacre II" in 1982, with the song "Scepters of Deceit".
"...hard rock was huge in Germany and England. I knew that it would soon be big in L.A. My ideas for my band were taking shape. Saxon, Priest, Schenker, Scorpions, UFO, Maiden, Accept were all influences. I always hated punk and new wave music. I liked Ted Nugent, Cheap Trick, Molly Hatchet and Euro Heavy Metal like UFO." -Christian Logue, Savage Grace
