Sacrament was a Christian progressive thrash metal ensemble originating from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, established in 1989. Renowned for their gospel-centered lyrics, they frequently played for non-religious audiences. Sacrament is credited as one of the forerunners of Christian thrash metal alongside Living Sacrifice. Following their breakup in 1994, members DiDonato and Ney collaborated with musicians from Believer to create the band Fountain of Tears.
In April 2021, original members Paul Graham and Mike Torone formed a new project named Testimony of Apocalypse. This lineup includes Graham on drums, Torone handling vocals, and Nick Pacitti covering guitars, bass, and keyboards. Their first single, Redemption, was issued in September 2021 under The Charon Collective label.
