House of Lords

An extension of the band Giuffria, House Of Lords implemented the same majestic and melodic approach to heavy metal. Their brand of keyboard laced arena rock sold in vast amounts, but an unwillingness to tour proved to kill any initial interest the group had garnered.
When KISS' Gene Simmons signed Giuffria to his RCA offshoot Simmons Records, he insisted that the group change their name and recommended they replace singer David Glen Eisley.
