Cage is an American heavy metal band from San Diego, California.
An album was recorded already in 1995, but it was never released and so their debut came in 1998 with the album "Unveiled", six years after the band was created. Since then the band has released four more albums, all of them got great responses in Europe but less in their homecountry.
In 1999 Cage won the rock hard best-unsigned band contest in competition with 600 other bands and were rewarded with the possibility to play at the DYNAMO festival the same year. After a brilliant performance there they were selected to play the prestigious WACKEN Open Air Festival in Germany and the metal dayz Open Air Fes-tival in Switzerland. CAGE was able to hone their live skills in front of huge crowds on a consistent basis by opening for Iron Maiden, Dio, Judas Priest, Dokken, etc.
Their album "Darker Than Black” was hailed as an instant classic by many of the metal industry leading magazines and webzines and finished in the #1 position on the HEAVY Soundcheck chart list.
Shortly after the release of the album "Hell Destroyer", long-time drummer Mike Nielsen was kicked out of the band, but his replacement was found fast in Norm Leggio and the band now carries on as before.
