  1. Re: Records, CDs, or MP3s?

    Amazon; I have to pay $3 shipping for any given CD so even if it's $17 I still pay $20 gross total. With Amazon Mp3 there isn't a noticeable sales tax - it's about $1 for a given song. Oh, and there isn't a single CD shop within 35 miles that stocks anything I want. :( About the closest they get is Iced Earth, Amon Amarth and Dream Theater but that's IT. And while I can respect the talent these bands have I really don't care for them.
    Usually you can get used CD's for quite a bit less than $17. Depending on how popular the album was, you can often get them for around $5, which is way cheaper than MP3's are.
  2. Re: Demon Hunter Vs. Behemoth What exactly is being compared? I mean, why is it these two bands specifically? They don't really play the same style of music, so there's not a whole lot to compare that you wouldn't get from simply comparing christian vs. satanic lyrics in general... I do like Demon Hunter, though. One of the few Alt Metal bands I listen to.

  3. Re: Christian Black Metal

    black Sabbath burned crosses on stage and many Christians believed them to be satanic.... ozzy himself is nicked named the prince of darkness dio talking about Christianity on a metal documentary "A headbangers journey" saying how nuns hit children with rulers and how over dramatic it can be "if you sin you'll go to hell and suffer horribly"
    I'm not saying that they were Christians themselves, but they did have songs that included Christian imagery, especially the song After Forever: Have you ever thought about your soul - can it be saved? Or perhaps you think that when you're dead you just stay in your grave Is God just a thought within your head or is he a part of you? Is Christ just a name that you read in a book when you were in school? When you think about death do you lose your breath or do you keep your cool? Would you like to see the Pope on the end of a rope - do you think he's a fool? Well I have seen the truth, yes I've seen the light and I've changed my ways And I'll be prepared when you're lonely and scared at the end of our days Could it be you're afraid of what your friends might say If they knew you believe in God above? They should realize before they criticize that God is the only way to love Is your mind so small that you have to fall In with the pack wherever they run Will you still sneer when death is near And say they may as well worship the sun? I think it was true it was people like you that crucified Christ I think it is sad the opinion you had was the only one voiced Will you be so sure when your day is near, say you don't believe? You had the chance but you turned it down, now you can't retrieve Perhaps you'll think before you say that God is dead and gone Open your eyes, just realize that he's the one The only one who can save you now from all this sin and hate Or will you still jeer at all you hear? Yes! I think it's too late. ...and there are still 'Christians' who think Christian music is Satanic, so that argument doesn't hold much water.
  4. Re: DragonForce's new singer Meh, I'm not a huge Dragonforce fan, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they are terrible. Obviously they are very talented musicians, but what they have in skill they seriously lack in the songwriting department. Hopefully the new singer will help them to evolve their sound a bit.
