Members imgooley Posted June 14, 2012 Members Share Posted June 14, 2012 I think Old Testament style christianity is suited for metal Maybe some book of revelation stuff (Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, number of the beast, the anti-christ, etc.). Christianity ain't all about love, peace and understanding. Sometimes it's about stoning, burning witches, and overwhelming guilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Slaymoar Posted June 14, 2012 Members Share Posted June 14, 2012 So if you ARE married to a WOMAN, you can get hammered, high as a kite and screw around..? Anyways, just seems like the "serving god" thing is sort of an excuse for how a blatantly obvious oxymoron this is. To me it just looks like they just really want to play metal, and their parents are against metal music... so they play metal and make the lyrics "church happy".. If you are trying to reach youth, christian metal is more of a deterrant than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DET1973 Posted June 14, 2012 Members Share Posted June 14, 2012 I played in a Christian Punk/Metal Band when i was 16 called Royal Anguish...i played with them simply to get stage time/experience the Singer Matt had kids without being married which was something he used to preach about during band practices. He would do these bible study things before practice preaching against "lust of the flesh" I learned very quickly what christian bands are all about behind the scenes while hanging out with a few of the big ones back in the day.

Sadly most Christian bands ARE that way. I am in a Christian band and I can promise you that we are'nt like that. We all go through the same crap that everyone else does. Most of the songs we write arent preachy, they are more positive and meant to be encouragement. I cant stand hypocritical people that try to shove any kind of religion onto another person. I absolutely wont do it. I would say 80% of the bands I have been around at Christian venues play them because they cant get into the secular scene anywhere. The "crabcore christian" bands are the worst. Been around a ton of them. A lot of the bigger name bands are the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dont really like the "preachy" style lyrics, the songs are more about bringing people toward christ in a way a different audience can accept. Everyone in the band is christian, and we're not perfect, but we're alot better than alot of other people..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing against Christian metal bands, theres a lot of {censored}ty ones, but I also have to give credit to ones such as As I Lay Dying and Haste the Day for bringing me into the fold of metal when I was 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
