While I agree completely that the religious orientation of a band has nothing to do with the quality of their music, in the case of The Classic Crime it certainly impacts the quality of their lyrics. They are serious, true to life, and sincere. The Christian allusions they make lend to their realism rather than detract from it (unlike a lot of other bands that incorporate Christian themes). I wish more Christians would form bands like this that can touch on religion without proselytizing.
Just because they perform in a church does NOT make them a Christian band. If I go to the postoffice to send a letter it doesnt make me a postman does it? Anyway, what does it matter? Whether they are Christian or not- their music is still the same. Absolutely amazing. A belief in God does not determine the quality of music. If you believe it does you may as well say a belief in God makes an artist more talented or a writer more imaginative. People are what they are- its no ones elses business.
I honestly don't understand why so many people argue over the fact that a band is Christian or not. Do you enjoy the music and lyrics? Cause if so, why would it matter if they are Christian or not?
@TheWalter38 The only reason why I find out if a band is Christian or not is to find out what their world view is. If they are Christian it just makes the music a bit more awesome but I like plenty of other bands that aren't Christian like coldplay :)
@777oldspice Alright I gotcha then. I am the same way! I just get frustrated when people write off christian bands because they are christian. Or they write off other bands that produce great music with equally great messages that aren't christian ya know?
for the last time, they aren't a christian rock band. Just because they have a Christian record label and they feature jesus in some of their songs, doesnt mean they're Christian. I mean, just about every other band in the world has made references to Jesus, but they sure aren't Christian bands. They're still my second favorite band.
As Matt writes on TCC's discussion board, "We believe faith is personal, and can be only held by an individual person. To entitle a group 'Christian' would be to assume that the group has a collective soul, or at least individual souls tied to a solid collective belief. Not everyone in our band is decidedly set in their faith, and we respect that.
allllright. i gotta say that im not religeous and i still love this music, these guys should be 100% more famous cause they have really deep meaningful lyrics >.>
Does she or does she not go to hell? I don't know. The Classic Crime is an amazing band and has really moved me. They say if your Christain then believe it. They say if your not then they hope it still affects you. I can't explain it. i can't explain what i believe. cause i don't know... "If this is real im a fake" Im too tired to care anymore. and i don't want to think. So until then. I'll let the music lead me. to whatever it is next..
i do not belive she will go to hell, but i do belive that, protestant , cathlics , and islam all worship God. they all have hope for them and he loves them. your story touched me. and i agree with : let the music lead me" because i spent a year of my life just doing that. now i usually listen to the classic crime. because their music always helps. but i have to tell you this. my life worshiping god was much better then my life without him, and always follow ur heart.
Rick, i respect you man. through my life i have learned a lot. but recently i learned i can be a hypocrite at times. so with that said. to every living person out there, what if your wrong? Christians or atheists. Christians even if they are wrong will have lived a wonderful life, if atheists are wrong well you know. why must everyone take affiance in a comment like "i will pray for you". it simply means i wish you the best.
Wow man. You said it. I've kinda drifted away from christainity. My friend went super religious and my friend became an atheist and me. idk what i am. I see crazy christains say "Follow Jesus follow Jesus" Then i see Atheist "Don't believe this don't!" To me. i don't care. Music is the only thing that keeps me going. I think of a 8 year old girl. in Iraq. Follows Islam. Is told to hate christains. then she dies in a bombing by the U.S. Government of a possible fix of a terrorist.
hey man, u dont have to do things like that, although thats probrably a fake comment im gonna tell you this, theres a easy solution to all of your problems in life, follow jesus christ, hes changed my life. If its real, im praying for you, if its fake...ill still pray for you
