it's the lyrics that matter, or if it's instrumental i reckon it would matter the intent of the music(?). now i don't see how people screaming into a microphone(i like heavy stuff) and you really can't understand them, and talking about stabbing you in the back with their love and something about stuff oozing out of your skull can be Christian. i like stuff like skillet, jonah33, and well i can't think of any other heavy Christian bands at the moment. i'm not bashing rock, cause what could be cooler than rockin' out for God's glory? anywho..the only sounds i don't like is the metal/rock that's really fast paced and the singers(and often musicians) have no talent, and it really just sounds like noise. i also don't like polka too much...everything else i listen to(some more than others). ------------------ www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs [This message has been edited by bennythebear (edited November 29, 2004).] |

oh sure... bash my music will you. lol. I'm actually starting to leave the metal scene. but still, you can't say Metal artists are not talented. some are and some aren't. same with other genres. except pop. fine.. yes, pop artists can be talented too.. i guess. (artists annoy me.. have to go with the bands) Heavy Christian Bands? P.O.D. Project 86 Demon Hunter Disciple These 5 Down Undefiled ... ------------------ |

So DeathMetal, Acid Rock, Rap and other types of music you have no problem with? Would you be interested in the song where I got these lyrics from? Blackest magic, leave my soul, give my angels all control ------------------ |

So besides being christian ... what's the difference between the music? I've heard christian speed metal that is just as graphic and brutal as any thing Slayer released. Same as with rappers. ------------------ |

Some girls are just wierd. Im a freshman in HS, so bear with me u old geezers. I dont mean like cooties and stuff. I mean like, a guy will um.. shall we say..."flirt" with them and they call him a perv. Then they go pop in a petey pablo cd and listen to him say " Do ya want it from tha back with yer head in the pillow, so u can scream as loud as you want?!" They play games too. girls who play games are not worth the time. no more of this " ill lead him on" or " let's se what he'll do" or " i dare u to ask him out" my list of most cliche break up lines ( ive used a few) 1) Its not you! You're great! iTs just me. ------------------ |

quote:How do you know it's Christian musoic if it's just as 'evil' - I presume you mean the lyrics not the musical style? I'd not define a group as making Christian music if their songs didn't talk about something to do with Christian life or Jesus... |

I think it is partly do with their hearts and motives. A christian band could write a secular song and that wouldn't be bad. But yeh lyrics do play a main part. --D-SIPL ------------------

NO not the musical style. That dont have nothing but the flow of the song. The lyrical content is what i'm basically getting at. Seen lryics for a christian rapper who raps about his past. He was a gang member and slung coca and killed people. Yet you can pick up any other hard core rap cd and hear the same things. So what's the difference? Like ICP or another underground artist called Q Strange. Their music may be dark and not for everybody. Yet if you sit and listen to some of their songs. You know what that song is about, yet they sling it a way a lot of people dont like. ------------------ |

If he was saying what he used to do and that it was a bad lifestyle that would be different. |

I think your talking about ambasitor, or however you spell his name. But yes it is talking about how it was bad, and how he changed |
