Through the amazing work of Arjen Lucassen and his Ayreon project I discovered an amazing vocalist named Eric Clayton, the vocalist of the Christian metal band Saviour Machine. The music is dark and haunting and Clayton's vocals have a David Bowie vibe to them. Very cool and very interesting. However, I do not know how I can acquire more of their work because I have second thoughts about venturing into a Christian music store.
If anyone else is familiar with Saviour Machine, please let me know!

Honestly, the biggest thing that people get tripped up over with music that they really shouldn't is lyrics--who cares what the artist is saying or trying to tell you, really? One of the reason Nightwish's lyrics never reacieve any serious criticism is because there is no clear-cut message. But if an artist DOES have a message that disagrees with you, just don't pay attention to the lyrics!
Look at it this way - if Christian music does not agree with you, that's fine. But you'd be missing out on some great metal: Matt Smith's solo project Theocracy, for one, and of course you snowy just mentioned savior machine. I can't say that I agree with the lyrical messages of all the music I listen to, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the music.

Do you mean like, they sound similar to Masterplan? Just wondering because I really love that band and would be willing to check them out...
no - sound is not like Masterplan - they sound like the old Blind Guardian.TheGreatDeciever said:
The singer of Savage Circus is/was formerly the singer from Swedish band "Persuader".
The saying over here in Germany is - they will have pretty good chances to make a similar success story like Masterplan - call it shooting stars in a very short time

Oh, the lyrics in Saviour Machine are not the issue as they are not too preachy. It's the fact I would have to go into a Christian music store and be stared at like I am some kind of Satanist.
Hi, Big Tini!
Big Tini said:
Oh right right, i gotcha. But, hey, blind guardian kicks ass so yea, hopefully they WILL have a masterplan-esque success story. I'll have to check em out...

Oh, i gotcha. Trust me--it's not that bad. When I was a freshman here at military skool, we couldn't leave campus unless we were in uniform. When ppl looked at you it was always this corny, "Aww, look at that upstanding young man, servin the greater good and all that." But when I walk around in my civilian clothes, ppl always look at my like, "I wonder if that guy's going to steal something? Better keep my children close lest that hoodlum kidnaps them." LOL. PPL are stupid. Go in to that christian store, buy there one kick-ass metal CD, and laugh at the clerk's closemindedness.
Hey, Big Tini! Glad to have you here! Yes, I've been keeping up to date with the fantastic Heavy Metal News Mail. Even though I can't read everything you say in German, I can always check out the names of the bands and follow the links.Big Tini said:Hi everybody

I will have to send you a nice long e-mail soon. So much has been happening!! ProgPower was amazing and I learned to love two bands I had not been familiar with before: Circus Maximus and Stride.
As soon as things settle down a bit here, I will tell more.
BTW, guess where I'm going next month!
Big Tini said:a wise decision
also check on the new DISTURBED
New disturbed? Man, I have been out of the loop. What's the cd called?
Disturbed - TenThousand Fists http://www.disturbed1.com/
Dying to check this out. I haven't really been into them all that much, but I'm always ready to give anyone a chance, and if Big Tini likes 'em, it's gotta be good.
