But there are those bands which put their faith in Jesus Christ at the forefront of the their music, and those are the bands that I wanted to poll. I picked what I thought were the 8 most popular bands from this faith, but left the "other" option just in case there are other choices. This list just deals with regular Metal bands, and not the Metalcore scene, which is heavily populated with Christian bands. So please don't pick "other" if your choice is a Metalcore band.
So, please pick your favorite, and tell us a little bit as to why.
For me, I have to go with Living Sacrifice. While Stryper is will always hold a place in my heart, Living Sacrifice is still my pick. Their albums are all solid releases filled with some brutal music and powerful lyrics. Even since their break up they're still noted as being a huge force is the Christian music scene.

"Trumpets and some other shit"...what a mature approach.... What's wrong with trumpets? Melodic metal can use trumpets and other brass instruments to create very powerful sounds....I think usually terrifying, glorious and mighty music is the best to praise heavenly forces......when to add electric guitars and other such instruments we can make things only better.....what about a melodic metal mass using dark choirs....... I don't think they wrote directly of modern instruments in the Bible....people of that time didn't know these instruments....rap, punk, rock and metal...at least as they exist now did not exist when Bible was written.... How can one write about things that don't exist at the time? Therefore, there can be no bullshit here.....

Written by [user id=25484] on 25.09.2007 at 23:08 Could you please supply me with the Biblical verse that states that? Because throughout the Old and New Testaments there are thousands of passages talking about praise, and most of them don't deal with "trumpets and sh*t". Now, you claim that there is no such thing a "Christian Metal". Let me ask you this, what then is Christian Metal?

Since there's no genre/subgenre based only on lyrics, what is "christian metal" ?

Written by Bad English on 27.09.2007 at 17:27 following this logic there IS a buddhist metal subgenre, an atheist metal subgenre and so on and so forth.

Written by Bad English on 27.09.2007 at 20:43 yes, but don't forget that in NSBM the music itself is nazi. the political views of the band members are irrelevant here.

I actually don't believe there is such a thing as "Christian Metal". A Christian is a person who loves God and follows Jesus. As Doug Pinnick once said "There is no Christian music. There is no Satanic music. There is just music." You can't have Christian music any more than you can have a Christian car, or a Christian hambuger, or a Christian bed. But when it comes to lyrics, there can be Christian themes to it. Be it hymns, praise & worship, psalms, personal reflections, etc. There are Christians who write metal songs with lyics of more a praise nature (Stryper), Biblical (Saviour Macine), personal reflection (Living Sacrifice).
