Gideon is an American Christian heavy metal band hailing from Tuscaloosa, Alabama, who were established in 2008. The group's current label imprint is Equal Vision Records and formers were Facedown Records and Strike First Records. In 2011, the band came out with a studio album called Costs with Strike First. Their second studio album was issued in 2012, titled Milestone, under current imprinter Facedown. On Febuarary 10, 2016 Gideon announced that they left Facedown Records and signed to Equal Vision Records and will release their fourth album later in the year. The band released their first single "Pulling Teeth", on July 1, 2016.

Background
In 2008, the band started in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. They are made up of vocalist Daniel McWhorter, lead guitarist Tyler Riley, rhythm guitarist Daniel McCartney, and drummer Jake Smelley.

Music history
The outfit released an independent extended play project in 2010 with their self-titled Gideon EP. They got picked up by the smaller label division Strike First Records of Facedown Records in 2011 shortly before they debuted their first studio album Costs. Eventually, the band got the attention of Facedown, who signed the band before the release of Milestone in 2012 making it their second studio album. Even better, the second album had some prowess on a few Billboard charts and those were the Christian Albums and Heatseekers Albums.

Style
Sources have put their music into various genres, from hardcore punk to melodic hardcore to metalcore. However, the band have slowly started to pursue a harder style eschewing the more melodic styles in favor towards the thrash side of the spectrum. At its core, the music is Christian metal for its sacred elements and heavy metal in its holistic encompassing totality of the sounds it contains.
