Christian Metal

Blindside is another band I like. Not really metal more like Alternative Metal but they are pretty good. Christian Metal is a very underrated genre in my opinion. It takes a lot of courage for these bands to stand for the things they do and play the type of music they do. A lot of hardcore metal fans such as myself might overlook these bands because of the lyrical content but I think they are as good as most "secular bands". I don't like or dislike bands because of just lyrics and what they stand for. I think it is crazy that the MOST metal underground is so "open minded" but won't give Christian Metal the time of day.

Obviously you are just biased towards Christian Metal. :-) No way are there that many quality bands

haha

Actually, I narrowed down the list quite a bit to just the ones that I think are worth listening to. There are a lot more Christian metal bands out there, but the majority of the ones I didn't list aren't that good (I'm sure I'm missing a few good ones, though, since I don't know every band out there).
 
>>>>Christian Metal is a very underrated genre in my opinion

Simple math.

Figure a billion music bands in the world - how many suceed and get noticed?

Now take that ratio down as the amount of Xtian bands is far far less.

Mathematically, there just isn't enough of a pool to get good musicians from, so a GREAT Xtian band doesn't happen all that often - but it does from time to time (Living Sacrifice)

I'm thinking about claiming catholic(because I was born one) and not being an athiest, starting a catholic doom metal band.
 
I'm actually not kidding for the people laughing out loud.

Catholics come out of the closet because we're going to bring doom all over this entire fucking planet.
 
My catholic doom band is going to prove you all wrong. (this is not a joke).

The guitar is going to sound like a brick silo falling on non believers heads cracking their feeble skulls. We catholics can be some tough mother fuckers too and you will see!

You think the christians in place of skulls are tough. Beware!

be forewarned
 
I remember reading somewhere doom was pretty strongly Christian oriented, but it always seemed farfetched

Oh well, fuck lyrical themes, it's all about the sound :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass: :kickass:

I couldn't agree with you more.
