no message was intended. i just wrote what i was feeling at the time, then i feel stupid after writing it(i don't like expressing emotions). i guess you could say i view being sad as weak, and being emotional as stupid...this view only applies to me, i don't feel that way about anyone else, trust me...my wife is a very sensitive and emotional person, kind of my opposite. ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |

ok, done a little research on emo. one site had a song listed to sample entitled "wrist meet razor" ...sounds interesting, though not exactly my kind of music(lyrically). i do like the heavy stuff though, it's just hard to find real Christian music with that sound. gospel is for the peaceful times, heavy metal keeps me sane when everything is chaotic in my life. the lyrical content of what i listen to stay the same(Christian), but the sound and situation changes. ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |

If this topic wants to shift to music I'm in! Any of you fools who live near me should come check out my band playing March 18th. $5 advanced, but wait none of you live near me and probably aren't big ska/funk fans. But music you guys might actually enjoy: DreamTheater (or Liquid Tension Experiment) Stevie Wonder Tower of Power Just a few. ------------------ |

why do people listen to depressing songs? i tried listening to that one song my linkin park that goes "in the end nothing even matters...", you talk about depressed...that sucked bad... g/f dumps you, the song matches your situation, listening to what you "feel" isn't always a smart thing to do, but i guess humans have a tendancy to do what isn't too smart. of course, i'm one of the people that usually know the best thing to do in a situation but never does it ...that makes me a complete moron! yay for benny!!!(this spaz moment was in memory of rm and buddboy) ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |

I'm part korean; it's in my blood to like sad songs, stories, etc. I rarely ever like a song that is happy. haha. sad songs are more emotional and heart wrenching; gives a more powerful emotional response. that and we like feeling sorry for ourselves. ------------------ |

I love depresing music Ha ha Hey crazy you might like Circle of Dust, Argile Park and Klank (Christian) Also in the DJ arena check out Paul Van Dyk, BT, ATB, and Milk Inc. Benny: Skillet and Johna33 are realy good bands. Let me know what other bands you like and I can give you a lot more great christian bands that are similar. Jeff ------------------ |
crazyishone Member Posts: 1685 From: Registered: 08-25-2004 |
I do like Paul Van Dyke and ATB. I just havn't heard enough to mention them in my fav's. If you like depressing songs that have a nice sound, Ohne Dich by Rammstein is a good one for that. One of my favorite Rammstein songs is Mutter, which is kina low-key. They have a ton of awesome songs that are more......not sad. :-) I believe it was their drummer that said the following in an interview-

I like Rammstien but they're stuff can get old very quickly. Mutter is a far better album then Reise Reise but both have their moments. System of a Down is becoming very mainstream and I never really enjoyed their stuff. The new album is horrible. I suggest checking out Deftone's new B side Rarities to many of you. Its a lot more layed back then their previous work. Lots of acoustic as well. ------------------ |

jeff, i like just about anything that's heavy. i don't like the stuff where they're yelling in a fake-deep voice and you can't understand a word they're saying, and i definately don't like the emo sounding stuff. a few random bands like off the top of my head are: pillar, dc talk, jonah33, skillet, kutless, tobymac, and some other heavy rock, r&b, and rap. ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |

Cheesestorm, I have to agree System of a Down is becoming quite mainstream. I have really only listened to one of their albums, so I don't claim to be a die hard fan or any suchness.

gretchen's sound is great! zion is the only Christian song i seen(could just be me)? flyleaf rocks as well, they kind of remind me of kittie(i think that's it) that is when the lead singer is screaming. anberlin sounds cool, it's mellower than the other 2, but i like it. bleach was ok. 38th paralel i don't care much for. sky harbor was ok. but gretchen and flyeaf were freakin' awesome! nothing(music-wise) is greater to me than something that rocks hard, and rocks to God. thanks for telling me about those bands. ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs [This message has been edited by bennythebear (edited February 14, 2006).] |
