Trouble

Trouble is an American doom metal band noted as one of the pioneers of their genre, alongside bands such as Candlemass and Saint Vitus.[3] The band created a distinct style taking influences of the British heavy metal bands Black Sabbath and Judas Priest,[4] and psychedelic rock of the 1970s. A critically acclaimed group, their first two albums,Psalm 9 and The Skull are cited as landmarks of doom metal. To date, Trouble has released eight studio albums. Although the band never officially broke up, Trouble was plagued by extended inactivity after their original singer Eric Wagner left in 1997. He eventually rejoined in 2000 before leaving again eight years later.
The nucleus of the band had been vocalist Eric Wagner, guitarists Rick Wartell and Bruce Franklin, and drummer Jeff Olson. The band is also noted for the spiritual nature of their early lyrics; their first record label, Metal Blade Records, marketed the band as "white metal" (in contrast to the rising black metal movement) in the 1980s.[5]
Tributed by Dave Grohl of Nirvana.
Band members have cited influences by the early heavy rock bands of the 1970s such as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Budgie, and Black Sabbath,[8]
 Due to issues with their album companies they were unable to achieve commercial success. They were nonetheless praised by Allmusic for helping popularize metal.
