## History

Glenn Rogers was born on January 8, 1966 in Carson, California in the United States. Rogers began his career in 1986, forming the band Blind Decree, eventually being known as Dissenter, until 1987, where he departed. Rogers joined Vengeance in 1987, being a part of the band for about two weeks. However, in that time, he wrote several songs that would end up on *Human Sacrifice*. He left the band and joined a project with former Holy Soldier vocalist Robbie Brauns named H.E.R.O., which would also appear on the *California Metal* split alongside of Neon Cross and Deliverance. Rogers had joined Deliverance around the same time and recorded on the demo, *Greetings of Death*.

After joining the band, they recorded their self-titled release. During his time in Deliverance, Rogers joined the band Steel Vengeance. His stint with Steel Vengeance lasted about four years, before taking a break in his musical career. Rogers joined Hirax in 2003 and stuck with them for several years, leaving and rejoining several times. He launched a one-off project with Daniel Cordova (formerly of Vengeance Rising, The Slave Eye) called Lambs Among Wolves in 2010. In 2011, Rogers reformed the band Metal Blade Records recording artists Viking and a project of his own with Cordova entitled Final Decree. Neither band progressed with Rogers, until 2016, when Rogers resurrected Final Decree with Cordova and Martin DeBourge. DeBourge later on left the band and was replaced by Sammy DeJohn (Ruthless). In 2017, it was announced that George Ochoa had departed from Deliverance yet a second time, being replaced by Rogers who had originally been replaced by Ochoa. Rogers appeared on *The Subversive Kind* in 2018. Final Decree began working on a new album, with a 7" record, titled *Dark Before the Dawn*, being ready to be released in 2021.
