Are we talking about bands which happen to be Christian but don't let it influence their music too much, or those really preachy rock bands that are EXTREMELY loud with their views? I thought we were bashing the latter, but what do I know?

Do you not believe in Thor, the Viking Thunder God? If not, then do you consider your state of disbelief in Thor to be a religion? Are you an AThorist?-Darth Wong on Atheism as a religion

I was under the impression we were pissing upon the latter, the kind of bands you find in Christian bookstores. I don't give a shit if a band just happens to be Christian (Creed still sucks giant monkey cock, though).

Well, I'm rather biased, since my little brother has been a member of a touring Christian Rock band since the 1980's. That means that their music is more rock-based, with strong guitar riffs and solos, like most of the good '80s rock. And like good '80s rockers, they are kickass in concert.

I even got SirNitram to one of their concerts. He was dancing to it (as much as a skinny white Englishman can dance).

Anyway, if you boys can be nice and just look at the website without making derogatory comments to the webmaster, you can find my brother's band and mp3's of their songs at underauthority.net

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Ever heard of Ultimatum, something as rare as a creationist rock band??

One of their songs, titled "Shroud of Science", goes like this:

"Cold facts distorting the truth
Fossil records don't hold up
Darwin's theory is a farce"


"Cold facts distorting the truth??" Come on, are these guys even taking themselves seriously??

Hehe, I can already imagine these people getting into a scientific argument with Atheist.... (yes, there is a band called "Atheist")
"Hi there, would you like to have a cookie?"

"No, actually I would HATE to have a cookie, you vapid waste of inedible flesh!"
