A) Okay. That really doesn't make you right, though, it just makes you unpleasant.
B) This is just a dull-witted assertion with no real reason or argument behind it. For the record, this is you simply saying "no, you're wrong man." as a cop-out. Congrats! Care to point out these ad hominems you've mentioned?
C) You've completely failed to answer any of the questions I posed. Are you suggesting that if this hypothetical song had one line in it that read "In the name of God," then it makes it Christian metal, but if the line is "In the name of Satan," then it's black metal? Do you see how ridiculous and arbitrary that is, and therefore how idiotic your entire argument is? There isn't an ideological difference between the two versions of the song, just one meaningless word swapped for another meaningless word. Are you really so petty that you'd get your knickers in a twist over such a thing?
D) Is this, as I suspect, a rage-quit? Is this the equivalent of you throwing out some childish insult, and then putting your fingers in your ears and going "LA LA LAAAA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU! LA LA LAAA!" Because if it is, then... boy, that was easy.

who cares if christian black metal can exist or not, seriously?

I have been recently going through the discographies of The Pineapple Thief, HRSTA and A Silver Mt. Zion. All three of which are really good. Here's a song;

It's not really about whether Christian black metal can exist; it's about whether the purpose of musical labels is to be a descriptive tool to assist in the dissemination of information, or a stick with which to pointlessly beat people. It's more about The Butt's attitude towards other people than about the validity of Christian black metal.

My current listening, a pretty song from Scotland:

And now for something completely different.

This video is unavailable in your country.

I do, since people here with an ignorance of the genre erroneously claimed it was possible.

Meh... enough metal talk for...ever...anyway.

Pineapple Thief is good stuff though I've always wondered why that particular name.

But this metal discussion is great! I haven't eaten more popcorn in ages.

Think ill take a break from classic rock and listen to some oldschool. Suggestions?

Sorry Bounty, I know that was a very popular song but for pure quality I think this wins out.

Despite how relatively easy this is, it's so fun to play on the drums.

Sang this at karaoke tonight.



To every male here, myself included: Feel shame at the fact that you will never be even a hundredth as manly as Judas Priest.

Haters of the Priest can die.

Seen them live twice now. Worth every cent both times. It's amazing how Rob can still hit those high notes and keep his voice through an entire concert at such an age.

I will say, after Devil's endorsement, I finally listened to the new Beck album last night. I'll also say, I really enjoyed it - quite different from his older stuff, but very good!

**** jealous tbh. I would kill to see the Priest live. Especially if they played a lot of older stuff.

First time was during the British Steel anniversary tour and it was great. I was honestly more excited to see Whitesnake, but they had to cancel for a few venues cause their singer got sick. Priest played for the length of the ENTIRE concert to make up for Whitesnake bailing and it was absolutely awesome.

The second time, they were touring with Black Label Society and someone else (forgot who, not that they were notable). Definitely enjoyed this one more because they played more Screaming for Vengeance than the other time (by far my favorite of their albums).
