 Theocracy is a Christian Heavy Metal band from Athens, Georgia in the US. Their style mixes elements of Power Metal and Progressive Metal with plenty of Iron Maiden influences. The band was formed in 2002 by Matt Smith (no relation), who played all the instruments, performed all the vocals, and programmed the drum machine on the first self-titled album, as well as mixing and polishing it. The band has since become an actual full band — there were three members who played on their 2008 sophomore album, Mirror Of Souls, and there are currently five members. Their third album, As The World Bleeds, was released in 2011 and marks their first release as a full band, followed by Ghost Ship in 2016.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Current Members: Matt Smith - Vocals Jonathan Hinds - Guitar, Backing Vocals Ernie Topran - Drums Val Allen Wood - Lead Guitar Jared Oldham - Bass, Backing VocalsFormer Members: Seth Filkins - Bass, Backing Vocals Josh Sloan - Bass, Backing Vocals Patrick Parris (Lascaille's Shroud, Judicator, Project: Roenwolfe) - Bass, Backing Vocals Patrick Nickell - Drums Shawn Benson - DrumsStudio Albums to date: 2003 - Theocracy: "Theocracy", "Mountain", and "Ichthus" 2008 - Mirror of Souls: "Mirror of Souls", "Laying the Demon to Rest", and "On Eagles' Wings" 2011 - As the World Bleeds: "I AM", "Nailed", and "As the World bleeds" 2016 - Ghost Ship: "Ghost Ship", "Wishing Well", and "The Wonder of It All"Not to be confused with a political Theocracy.

 Longest Song Goes Last: The title track from Mirror of Souls wraps up the album. Averted with As the World Bleeds, where the longest song is the first track.

 Genre Roulette: "Wynter Fever" shifts from power metal to blues and then back again.

 "I Am" Song: "I AM." Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Almost every sentence begins with "I am."
