The Virgos

Dubbed the heaviest band in Pennsylvaina, The Virgos are ushering in a new age for true heavy metal.

In 2017, after 10 years of setting the standard for hardcore and metal with Bad Seed, Harm’s Way and Nails, Andy Saba (vocals/guitar) met his spiritual sister in sound, Danni Crockett (vocals/bass). A shared love of off-roading, firearms, Anti-Imperialism and the discography of Bathory gave root to a philosophy and a purpose. The two found another kindred spirit in Eli Gerrity (drums), who joined their pursuit because he truly just wants to fucking rock.

Utterly sick and tired of the posers, The Virgos decided it was time to let the Apocalyptically loud horses of metal run free again and shine a light on every color of the Dark Rainbow of Metal. Following a run of singles, the band vowed to release a new studio album every year, until Jesus comes back, starting with 2023’s Pennsylvania Death Trip. They kept their promise with Road to Noxen before releasing their third and finest full-length offering on August 2025.  Lord Have Mercy is a 38-minute cannon blast of full throttle metal, pyrotechnical sounds and psychedelic worship music. The album’s heavy, hard and horny single “Yes” attracted Season of Mist, who re-released the band’s discography ahead of their forthcoming fourth album.

Familiar to lovers of True Heavy Metal, but unlike anything you’ve ever heard before or will again, now is the age of The Virgos, Pennsylvania’s Heaviest Band.
