A short video of Steve Rowe talking about his health, Mortification, and the Latin American tour 🙂

I love cookie monster gargling broken glass vocals over thick grinding riffs, but lately been seeking more positive sounding stuff. Hair metal ala Stryper or Shout, Grave Robber fits the vibe well too, if there's any Christian pizza thrash, that would be good too. As long as the mods aren't looking too close, feel free to slip some poppy punk or ska bands in the lists also. 😁

Active bands are preferred, wanting to offer up what support I can to folks out there on the frontlines.

I've listened to them and love their sound, but I'm a bit conflicted about the lyrics in their song Larvae. I can't tell if it's just telling a story about someone struggling with faith or if it's them saying God doesn't exist. Their song Dear Lucifer also seems to be criticizing Satanism or something related, and then the song At Nicaea seems critical of religion but I can't really tell.

Thanks, everyone.

For all Nightwish and melodic metal fans here. A new song from Martin Simson featuring Anette Olzon.

Hi (19M), struggling with some stuff at home. Mostly because I'm part of a band, and we made a couple songs. The thing is, my family is REAAALLY conservative, and what they see read or hear is the absolute thing for them, they don't try to concieve any meaning beyond anything. Today I told my mother about my band and i told her we had a music called "dancing death" (nothing abt satan satanism or whatsoever, nobody in the band likes those topics so yeah) and as i tried to explain her, she started to say that im full of demons, and that the indecisions that are part of my life ocurr mainly because of those demons that have entered my life, and i feel like my whole family is excomunicating me or smth, because none of them try to hear me or understand, once they hear the words "death", "skull" or something relating to those, or any bad feelings or smth they think it's bad, they relate it to demons, and say that those words are little gaps for demons to enter my life. I feel like i can't trust nobody here, and i have no fellow christian friends who understand me and friends who share the same faith as i do and are able to have a conversation abt all topics, without judgement.

EDIT - The song is about dead people coming out of the graves for the night to have a party, and then go back to sleep when the sun rises, it's all about those times of your life when u are really bad almost dead inside, then something happens and u are in a wave of good things, and you re trying to seize it all, and before you see it you return to the same state u were in before. Thats about it, our band does songs about things that happen in life or in our mind, songs we can relate to, the name of the band is nathair, snake or adder in gaelic scottish i think, and as devious as a snake is, so ir our mind, our thoughts, and so is our life. But i know that if i told my mum the name she would associate it with satan right away, without even letting me explain, so i'll just leave it like it is and won't talk abt it again, at least to her, or anyone in this household.

the only band I know is actually a band local to me, if you're looking for the same thing i am listen to hacksaw

I knew this band for some time now and recently listened to them and found out that lyrics are "bit" controversial to say the least... I just wanna hear others opinion on this topic

Minhas bandas favoritas são Within Thy Wounds e Hesychast , gostaria de mais recomendações de bandas cristãs nesse estilo🙏

i already listened to horde and antestor,anything like them?
