i looked it up and theres several sources saying that they are a christian band, and believe it or not, christian bands do play at ozzfest. anyways i hoped that settled that.
I can hear alittle of Pantera in there. But Pantera was more hardcore and had a real rough sound that really can tear your speakers up....However, I cranked up The Showdown (this song particular) and it tore my speakers up too as well.
Nah man, check out Tourniquet. Don't get me wrong though i'm not trying to say The Showdown sucks or nothing plus you have the right to your own opinion, just sharing one of my fave christian bands with you.
i just looked up The Showdown's hometown... they're from the south! all 4 of my favorite bands are from the south... The Wedding, The Showdown, The Almost, and UnderOATH(does florida count as south?)...
what like aphrodite? its talking about standing up for yourself, same as the hammer of the gods. odessyus talks about being loud about your faith and hope. give us this day talks about how we dont need to be worldly. achilles talks about being resiliant. cerberus talks about how hate and things of the world infect us. infernus talks about god becoming angry at people.
I am a christian and believe me when I tell you that music genre doesnt matter at all when it comes to christian music. Just cause were christian it doesnt mean we all sit in churches singing hymes like boring farts.
Regardless if a band is christian or satanic however, I usually focus on the music rather than the lyrics anyway, if I song has a solid beat with a wicked melody and harmony I will listen to it period.
then your a idiot. check out demon hunter, and Haste the day. Why cant a band do metal and be christin. just because there not gona swear and post naked girls all over there satge and eat bat heads, dosent mean they cant do metal. give your head a shake.
Thats just total ingorance man...you liked them then found out that they believe in something...what does how well you play in instrument have to do with what you believe in???
This is my top band right now. The intro is totally sick. And the song has that southern metal feel, it just rocks. The "feel like hell" ep is awesome too!
Temptation come my way as a whole sucked. There were a few good soongs (Tempt. Come My Way, Breath of the Swamp, Death Finds Us Breathing) but everything else sounded so similar and boring. A Chorus of Obliteration was amazing and thats what got me into them around 2004/2005. They need to make a full on metal album, not this mainstream bullshit.
really ? damn those guys are the shit, i met these guys too at ozzfest, david took me to their tour bus, and the offered me a beer and some water, they are fucking awsome, why you met em?
this is like the best i met them they are awesome over the summer i got their autograph 2 we stayed at ichthus a big getogether and listened to them at 1:00 in the morning~!!!
