Eso-Charis
Appearance
Eso-Charis is a Christian metal band formed in Fort Smith, Arkansas in 1995. It was started as a side project for Arthur Green and Cory and Matt Putman of the band Living Sacrifice. The band was originally called "Elliot". After about two years of playing shows, the band changed their name because of other bands using the name Elliot. "Eso charis" in Greek translates to "within or inside grace". In late 1997, the band recorded their first and only full-length album with Bruce Fitzhugh of Living Sacrifice. The album was first produced independently, but was soon after leased to Day-Glo Records of Stockholm, Sweden. Later on, production of the album moved to Solid State Records, the same label as Living Sacrifice.
