Also when he was singing for Stellar Seed he would complain about seeing strange colors in the studio, which could communicate with him as if they where somehow intelligent beings.

Agent Steel is a Los Angeles based ThrashMetal/PowerMetal group that was founded in 1984 by vocalist John Cyriis and drummer Chuck Profus. They are notable for their hot-blooded solos and science fiction based themes mixed with social commentary. During their original run, they released two albums (''Skeptics Apocalypse'' and ''Unstoppable Force'') and an EP (''Mad Locust Rising''). Sadly, after only four years, John Cyriis disbanded Agent Steel and left the music industry entirely for a short time after becoming disenfranchised with the metal community.

* CoverVersion: The 1986 EP ''Mad Locust Rising'' has one of "The Ripper" by Music/JudasPriest.
** Another cover they have under their belt is "Hole In the Sky" by none other than Music/BlackSabbath
* DarkerAndEdgier: This started with their revival album, ''Omega Conspiracy'', when they started writing their lyrics more as social commentary than science fiction, but it went into full stride with ''Order of the Illuminati'', when they started to ditch their PowerMetal style in favor of a more classic metal sound mixed with ThrashMetal.
* HeavyMithril: Much more prevalent in their earlier albums. Unlike most power metal or proto-power metal bands at the time though, their lyrics were inspired more from science fiction themes such as aliens and government conspiracies.
* HotBlooded: For an 80's thrash metal band, a lot of their earlier songs are surprisingly empowering. It helps that they were technically also a PowerMetal group.
** "Never Surrender" (as shown in the quote above) is the absolute epitome of this
** This is subverted with their later work, which sounds much more cynical.
* PowerMetal: A lot of their earlier songs count as this, but as of ''Order of the Illuminati'', they've taken a more traditional sounding ThrashMetal Direction
* SurpeisinglyGentleSong: "Traveller", from ''Unstoppable Force''.
* ThrashMetal: They've always counted as this, but the genre became much more of the focus with ''Order of the Illuminati''.
