    New Wave Of British Heavy Metal act Apocalypse from London was formed by guitarist Steve Grainger around 1980.

    The band emerged from two bands in North London. Phaze and Stone Lady. Originally Nick Brent Dave (MEX) Higgen (Stone Lady) and Marc and Steve Grainger.(Phaze) Mex left the band to move in a different direction and to set up the Octave Studio and PA Company in North London.

    Dave Robertson joined and Apocalypse were established. Ironicalyit was Dave (mex) higgen who named the band APOCALYPSE. It took the band two years to release their one and only single called "Stormchild" for Gate Records. After minor personnel problems with another band of the same name the band changed their name to Omega and recorded the number “Blood Sacrifice” for Ebony's rather obscure “Metal Warriors” compilation (issued in 1983).

    “The Prophet” was originally released on Rock Machine (basically a subdivision of Punk label Razor Records) in 1985.
    The line up consisted of Dave Robertson (bass, vocals), Nick Brent (guitars, vocals), Steve Grainger (lead guitars, keyboards, vocals) and Graham Roberts (drums).

    The High Roller re-issue of the album comes with new, superior cover artwork.
