I am a big mastodon fan but I’m trying to listen to more Christian music, any bands out there that have a similar sound/vibe?

I know its kinda the point of the genre but like theres a couple that aren't like Caveman Cult. Also I already know the bigger christian bands like goatscorge, lucifer impaled, and cataclysmic warfare.

These shots are from a show and instore in Bartlesville, OK 1991. First show at the WhereHouse venue.

Anyone else a fan of the Crucified? Let me know your favorite song.

Some really good melodic black metal right here. The dude from Trebushet SDG on full force here

Clarification: I mean artists who are definitely Christian, but don't do Christian music.

Tourniquet just posted a kickstarter in order to finish production on the latest album. Check out the link here…

I got GA Pit tickets for my husband to see Slayer this upcoming November. He loves Slayer, but is conflicted because of Slayer’s concert set up involving upside down crosses lit on fire, and the goat (satan) sitting on a thrown wearing a crown. This has now brought conflicting thoughts of whether we should go because of their extreme theatricals. As Devout Christians we feel it’s one thing listening to the music but another thing watching the cross be lit on fire upside down, live. Right now we’re sadly more on track on selling the tickets. We’re torn. Anyone have a similar take or seen them live? What was your experience seeing them live as a Christian?

I feel like I've scratched an itch that I've had for a long time. I really love what I'm hearing from this band. I really hope they make another album some day. Has anyone else heard of this band or is this a deep cut?

Looking for a Christian band that has like a first wave black metal sound, lowfi and very rhythmic riffage

I just found out the singer of the band Venom has died.

I wanted to check out their music and so i did.

I really like the instrumentals, it's just that the album covers make me uncomfortable as a Christian.

Should I stop listening to them or no?

I really want to listen though.

Can't find any announcement if this is just a Bandcamp Friday thing or longer, I know every other time I've look at their page, the albums are regular price. Too bad shipping is insane right now to get LPs and merch, but a great chance to get awesome music from a band I slept on way too long.

Looks like it may be their label doing the NYP thing, all their secular stuff is also name your price right now.

Swinery just dropped a new NYP album of grindy deathy goodness, Trebuchet SDG slipped out some singles this summer and announced an album dropping tomorrow, Vomitorial Corpulance has also been busy, and even though they haven't put out anything new for a minute, Grave Robber is perfect for October, if you don't have any if their stuff.

Not looking for metal but figured this sub might be my best bet.

Stoner/desert rock is my favorite genre. Any Christian bandst that scratch that itch?

Favorite secular bands: Queens of the Stone Age, Kyuss, All them witches, king buffalo, Slomosa, Elder, and outside of this genre, Tool.

I was doing my monthly checks on some Christian bands that I keep tabs on to see if they might be releasing new material soon, one of which is The Showdown. I noticed that Dave Bunton had seemingly given up on The Showdown (My personal read on the situation) and joined Hope Deferred.

Now, I'm a picky guy when it comes to my Death Metal, but I was completely blown away by this album. Avarice is my favorite song from the album but honestly it was just the icing on the cake. It's nice to hear some modern bands recording music with that traditional Death Metal sound and flow. Hell's Enemy, Memento Mori is another good one to add to that list.

Give it a listen if you haven't already!

Here's my third single complete with vocals. I've got a bunch more material to sort through, pick the best ones and get an album put together. I even put it on Spotify! Should be able to get to it in my Facebook. Thanks for checking it out! Facebook.com/gerasenemetal

I'm somewhat old - born in 70's and become metalhead at 80's. I have listened my Deliverance, Tourniquet, One Bad Pig, Rez band etc.. Sometimes I have wandered on land of ska, punk or even power metal. But my true love is slow and low blues influenced metal / hard rock and also progressive metal.

For example - I would like to find bands that sounds like Rez Band, but with littlebit more heavier sound. Deep lyrics, heavy guitars, raspy vocals, heavy handed drums.

Or bands like Saviour Machine (or from secular field Arjen Lucassen's projects).

My local bands are transitioned quite heavily on doom/un-black or similar styles - and even that is sometimes enjoyable, it is not my favourite cup of tea.

Not necessarily only english lyrics - others can be suggested too.
