Sir Lord Baltimore are a pioneering American heavy metal band from Brooklyn, New York, formed in 1968 by lead vocalist/drummer John Garner, guitarist Louis Dambra, and bass player Gary Justin. They are most notable for the fact that a 1971 review of their debut record, Kingdom Come, contained the first documented use of the term «heavy metal» to refer to a style of music. Additionally, Sir Lord Baltimore featured a drumming lead singer, traditionally a rarity in rock and metal music.
In 2006, Garner and Dambra reunited as Sir Lord Baltimore and released a new album, Sir Lord Baltimore III Raw. However, the band now has a Christian rock focus not present in their earlier work. Justin, who is no longer an active musician, did not participate.
Sir Lord Baltimore’s career is divided into two distinct periods: their original formation from 1968-1976, during which time they put out two studio albums and started a third; and lead vocalist/drummer John Garner and guitarist Louis Dambra’s reunion in 2006.
