Uh, Trev, that wasn't entirely untrue...

Shred Danson · 07-29-2007, 03:54 PM

I actually travel with a very "up and coming" type Christian metal band...

Decypher Down named them the regional "Top Dog"
Just played with Bride on Saturday.

Sort of like a christian KSE meet In Flames or so...
The songs up dont do justice. New album out soon. Heavier, more technical.. overall Better.

My favourite would have to be Demon Hunter... then Skillet following closely behind.

Shred Danson · 07-29-2007, 11:42 PM

Jesus Christ, Demon Hunter is terrible.

And I know Jesus Christ knows it.

Jude · 07-30-2007, 06:32 AM

I don't know why, but for some reason any band that specifies itself as "Christian" always rocks less hard and is less good than an equivalent band which does not, even if that equivalent band had all Christian members. The guitars just hit that much less hard, the melodies are that much blander...it baffles me why, but Christian rock is just never good.

I don't think I really agree with that.

But Demon Hunter is horrible. I used to like Skillet a bit though.

Becoming The Archetype is as good as anything out there though.

Jude · 07-30-2007, 07:32 AM

You really can't name me a good rock band which identifies itself as "Christian" more than as just a rock band.

I don't know or care shi about metal so leave any metal bands out of it.

So you're saying there are no christian rock bands that are more than just rock bands? Confusion!

Invicta_Veritas · 07-30-2007, 08:03 AM

That's an incredibly blanket statement.

12 Stones, for example, is an incridible talented, great melodic Christian rock band.

Demonhunter's first album was ace, the rest is crap.

Dimmu Burger · 07-30-2007, 08:55 AM

12 Stones' first album was great, but the second one was horrible.

Apocalyptic Raids · 07-30-2007, 09:04 AM

There is some Doom band I used to listen to that were apparently Christian and they were pretty good. I can't remember their name, though.

DECYFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, heh, just they're from my state and i don't let the misspellings for that band go by

Blindside are a great rock band and can rock harder than a lot other rock bands. great live too, their singer portrays a lot of emotion
