What music should i listen to?

[bmanishw]

Dear All,

Pls hear this straight from the horses' mouths -

In the song "The Conjuring" by Megadeth, the REAL mission of rock is clearly heard:

"I AM THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE
A SALESMAN, if you will . . .
Come join me in my INFERNAL DEPTHS . . .
I've got your soul!"
At the end of the song — they chant "OBEY"!​

Rocker Frank Zappa (who discovered the awful truth December 4, 1993 the second he died) proudly boasted:

"I'm the devil's advocate. We have our own worshippers who are called 'groupies.' Girls will give their bodies to musicians as you would give a sacrifice to a god." (Peters Brothers, What About Christian Rock, p. 17)​

The super group, Metallica, in the song "Jump In the Fire", commands young people to jump into hell:

"Follow me now my child . . .
DO JUST AS I SAY . . .
Jump by your will or be taken by force
I'll get you either way . . .
So reach down grab my hand walk with me through the land
COME HOME WHERE YOU BELONG
So come on JUMP IN THE FIRE."​

In the cover song, "The Prince", Metallica openly sing:

"Angel from below . . .
I WISH TO SELL MY SOUL . . .
DEVIL TAKE MY SOUL
with diamonds you repay
I don't care for heaven
so don't you look for me to cry
AND I WILL BURN IN HELL
from the day I die."​

Rock star, Marilyn Manson, proudly boasts:

"Hopefully, I’ll be remembered as the person who brought an end to Christianity." (Spin, August 1996, p. 34)​

Manson, an ordained "reverend" in the Church of Satan, mutilates himself on stage (1 Kings 18:28), rips-up the Holy Bible, and spews "blasphemies" against the Lord Jesus Christ. Manson’s T-Shirts declare, "KILL YOUR PARENTS" & "I ¤ SATAN". Manson claims his album Antichrist Superstar came via "supernatural-inspiration":

"I heard this album as finished, I heard it in dreams . . . It was like the revelations of John the Baptist or something." (huH, Oct. 1996, p.34)​

Manson’s "hope" for Antichrist Superstar,:

"I think every time people listen to this new album maybe God will be destroyed in their heads. . ." (huH, Oct. 1996, p.37)​

Manson’s "blasphemy" is not just an act. Manson readily admitts there's more to the show than meets the eye:

I don’t know if anyone has really understood what we’re trying to do. This isn’t just about shock value . . . that’s just there to lure the people in. Once we’ve got ‘em we can give ‘em our MESSAGE. (Hit Parader, Oct. 1996, p.28)​

Manson admits his childhood longing for Satan:
[FONT=Arial, helvetica]My mom used to tell me when I was a kid, ‘If you curse at nighttime, the devil’s going to come to you when you’re sleeping.’ I used to get excited because I really wanted it to happen . . . I wanted it. I wanted it more than anything . . .(Rolling Stone, January, 23, 1997 p.52)[/FONT]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

You don't even know the artists well and yet you blindly understand the lyrics xD Don't put your Christian views when reading secular lyrics! You won't understand the real reason behind them

If your relationship with Christ is coming into account with your music choices - find stuff that you like that doesn't give you the feeling that its getting between you and Christ.

Dear friend, I have been there. I was a hardcore Metallica, GNR, Sting, Eagles, Megadeth etc. fan. I've been delivered from that now.

I beg to differ highly. HIGHLY. If you honestly think any of those bands are "satanic" i'd love to hear your reaction to this song breh.

You were a child of Satan too? Because you listened to metal? Ok that sounds biblical. LOL

I really like the fact that Justin Richardson is now playing with these guys!

From Born Of Osiris? Definetely, he really has a knack or guitar and KILLED the Evolve EP. I'm really excited for CG's new stuff!

 

[Ecclectic79]

From my tag you guys might be able to tell I'm a little biased.

My take: lots of truly inspiring music out there in the electronic realm but if you find yourself hyperventilating for the lack of lyrics (not likely but - I've met people like that) do stick with rock/metal.

 

[pitseleh]

Elliott Smith
Genesis
Peter Gabriel (Especially the song Red Rain. He wrote that after he had a dream about being at the crucifixion.)
John Vanderslice
Chicago

Alot of them have some great non offensive songs.

I'm not sure I understand why anyone would quit listening to metal or punk. Lol.
I could give you better recommendations if I knew more about what type of music you'd rather listen to.

If it's on klove than that what the person would listen to.

 

[MomOf2nApril]

Well, then, listen to K-Love, haha. Or Air 1. They're pretty much the same thing, except you won't hear artists like Manafest or Group 1 Crew on K-Love, and you would on Air 1.

Either way, that style of music is not really my cup of tea most the time, so coming up with other suggestions is going to prove more of a challenge than I thought it might...
