The whole "anti-religion" thing really depends what genre and type of song your creating in Metal. However, some bands from metalcore, deathcore, post-hardcore or any types genre talks about anti-christianity and Satanic opposition 1st Example: In deathcore, some bands like Whitechapel and possibly Chelsea Grins have some songs talking about politics and sociality in our lifes how we are, some songs from Chelsea Grins however talks about anti-christian or Satanic opposition in some songs like "The Second Comming": Lyrics of Chelsea Grins's "The Second Comming" song: "No more saviours." (Mocks jesus the saviour of the world) "Promise me promise me that with a crown of thorns." (Crown of Thorns was put on Jesus to mock him) "I lead the path unto a blackened world" (Passage walkway path to Hell) "I drank the blood of the saints." (Killing of Christians/Saints) "I'm a vessel of unholiness" (Demonic Possession) =================================================== 2nd Example: A metalcore/deathcore band called "Bring me the Horizon" has made a song that is anti-religion or anti-christianity of the song called "Crucify me" from the album called "There is a Hell, Belive me i've seen it, There is a Heaven, Let's keep it as a secret!!" As the album title says is satanic which the meaning of it is they want to send their soul to hell which they're invited by the band callled "Bring me the Horizon". =================================================== 3rd Example: In black metal, there is always a place to talk about the atmospheric feature elements about Satan. But not only that but Burning Churches down... Drinking cold blood and other gory satanic stuff what they use to do in bands called "Gorgoroth"... If you type in the band called "Gogoroth Live Concert", by watching makes it feel like it's the most evil band in the world; you can see some poor innocent humans got sacrificed in a Christian Symbol like real, beheaded goats and real blood concerts like KISS. =================================================== Last Example: The band called Megadeth made songs about war and politics instead of anti-religion thing because of their popularity growing more. =================================================== I know you guys are tired of reading this but that's just my opinion of it. Thank you. -Feidz
