Favourite bands?

[phonic]

Petra ( Great Christian Rock band)

Why christian rock band?
Why not just white metal band or something?

Why make that difference?
Do you have to be a christian to appreciate their music?

Psychotic Waltz is not mentioned enough. Here it is!
Dead Soul Tribe is ver good too. I am really looking forward to the Aschaffenburg show!
Blind Guardian. Somehow my first favourite Metal band doesn't leave me alone. The DVD is that great that it inflamed my love towards the music again.
