Okay, it sounds weird, but Christian heavy metal is often heavier than others. Bands like Norma Jean
Demon Hunter
Inhale Exhale
As I Lay Dying
August Burns Red
The Devil Wears Prada
Haste The Day
UnderOATH

It would be really fun to have bands like those in Rock Band, because of the degree of difficulty, and the lyrics are "family safe". Before you post against this kind of music, make sure you like metal, and listen to a few of these bands. It seems that these bands get disregarded, because they are Christian bands, even though they rock hard!

I love UnderOath but just because you put Christian in the title I'd buckle down for hundreds of flames.

yup, I assume the same, but you don't have to be a Christian to enjoy these bands. The only Christian rock band on Rockband currently is that Flyleaf song, and thats a horrible example of Christian Rock at its finest.

I would love some Becoming the Archetype.

And one of my favorite lines from Moral Oral.

"BURN IN........HEAVEN!!!!!!"

Ok if i were to suggest heavy metal as a genre you guy wouldn't have a hissy fit about that would you? It's pretty much the same thing. You can't even tell the diffrence most of the time. Plus if you don't want it, guess what...........you don't have to buy it.

go read my other posts about why you shouldnt suggest christian music rather than regular music with christian songs in the mix.

but anyway, i do like norma jean, august burns red, devil wears prada, haste the day, becoming the archetype, underoath, and unearth(im pretty sure theyre christian. idk though.)

I am saying that there are some more well known heavy metal artists that happen to be in Christian bands. I would love to see all that remains on RockBand as much as the next guy, but I thought I would throw in a whole genre of music. All the bands I posted on the first post are great bands, they are known for insane guitaring, drumming, and powerful vocals. Thats what I want to see in rockband. The Christian comes into play, because of the lyrics of the songs. Christian songs "tend" to mean more and they dont have swearing in them, which would overall improve RockBand ratings.

Do a search for "Christian" and discover the other thread called "Christian Heavy Metal." Repost in that one and let this one die
