I ask because my father refuses to listen to bands who have written at least one line about anything offensive to God. The Swans album, Children of God, has a song where myMichael Gira says God has "cruel arms" and my father says the whole song mocks God. He even says the song sounds demonic (honestly, I believe The Monster's Loose by Meat Loaf sounds more that than that Swans song and the Meat Loaf discography is far from devil praise). Supertramp's "Goodbye Stranger" has a line about the devil being the singer's savior.
But does the whole discography do this? No. I avoid what's evil. But the rest of the Swans discography does not tackle anything like that. God doesn't allow sin in his sight, but are the other albums sinful? Should one idiotic decision affect the rest of the career?
