In 1983, along with his younger brother Troy, Dale formed the band Matrix and began writing original material. In 1986, Matrix was signed to a record deal and changed their name to Bride. Between 1986 and 2013, Dale released 14 studio albums with Bride, along with five solo albums, before disbanding the group, with the brothers remaining the only two original members throughout Bride's career. A lyric tenor in Bride's early days, Dale was known for his powerful and stratospheric voice, as is evidenced on such early Bride songs as "Evil That Men Do", "Hell No" and "Here Comes the Bride".[2] Thompson was into boxing and weightlifting, and currently holds two Kentucky bench press records. He has the title as the "Strongest Man in Kentucky." Dale and his brother retired Bride in 2013, after releasing the band's 14th and final album, Incorruptible.[3] Dale currently lives in New Zealand and has a new musical project, "The World Will Burn", with Kentucky-based multi-instrumentalist Alan Zaring. The duo has released their debut album, Severity.[4] He also formed a new band called "N.O.G", meaning "No Other God". The band are currently finishing recording their first album for a 2018 release.[5] In 2018, Thompson announced a new project with Tiago James De Souza of Hand of Fire, called Perpetual Paranoia.[1] They have describe their style as heavy, but not thrash metal. Presidential candidate nominationThompson was seeking the Constitution Party nomination in the 2008 campaign for President of the United States.[6][7] He dropped out around March 19, 2007, but stating "If the Lord wills maybe we can seriously look at 2012."[8] Dale has also completed his Kentucky State EMT exam and has passed his National Registry test to become a certified EMT (Emergency medical Technician). Personal beliefsThompson considers himself a committed Christian and universalist[9] and according to Scott Waters of Ultimatum, Dale's lyrical approach of universalism has been featured most prominently in "This is it" and "Skin for Skin."[10] In the album Skin for Skin, Thompson's lyrics claim a greater Universalist view than previous releases, most notably in the song "End of Days," where the lyrics contain what is considered Thompson's most outward implication of Universalism with the lyrics, "Every man, women and child followed Adam to the grave. Your flesh he will destroy that your spirit will be saved...concluded them all in unbelief, he'll have mercy on everyone, by His grace and peace the Spirit and the Bride say come".[10] Despite his Universalism and several accusations that he is no longer a Christian, Thompson has stated that he is a devout Christian and does believe in a Hell, though he has not staked a clear position on other doctrinal issues such as speaking in tongues, divine healing, foot washing, and the rapture, as he believes the teachings of Christ are the most important areas of Christian Faith.[11] He argues that the Bible does not require anything other than Believing in Christ's teachings.[12] Dale is often critical of many Christian churches and denominations, particularly fundamentalism, as they often refer to Christian Universalist beliefs as heresy.[11] Criticism of Cornerstone FestivalThompson is critical of Cornerstone Festival, stating "the Cornerstone staff was easily freaked out by us. They would have some bizarre goth band play or some punk band that said crazy things and put on weird shows and invite them back year after year... while we preached boldly from the stage and basically was blacklisted from the festival. Sorry state of affairs."[12] DiscographyWith BrideStudio albums
