I'm serious guys! Its such a large genre and there's some really awesome stuff like Tourniquet, Vengeance Rising and Bride! Lets discuss about Christian metal here. Let me start by posting this:
There is also Narnia. In the videos Im trying to see if anybody is doing any devil horns in the crown.
There is also some Christian black metal in myspace, but sounds pathetic...
Like what?
I found something, but haven't listened, give it a try. http://www.myspace.com/unblackmetal777
If you want christian black metal, listen to Antestor Guys like Hellhammer (dimmu borgir ex-drums) played there
Isn't Black Christian Metal an oxymoron?
Trouble is seen by some as a christian doom metal band, the band claim they aren't though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7E2j-Ut6iE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fd0MXTm52Uw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R49Fhjbcf4Y
An oxymoron? yes and moron as well
I think they are trying to call Christian Black Metal "White Metal" or something. I've got to be honest, Christian Metal is only ever any good for me if you can't hear the lyrics - they make me gag otherwise. The only good bits would be the parts in the Old Testament where god goes mental and kills a load of people. Like:
Ultimatum - Heart of Metal
Sorrowstorm - another christian black metal band. Also you can search in www.metal-archives.com for Christianity in lyrics themes. Good luck!

Is an interested sub genre. Once you get over the fact that there Christian there is some good music out there. Vengeance Rising, Mortification, Believer. Some more bands to look up.
Vengeance Rising has awesome riffs, vocals and solos. I like them, just the lyrics are... strange (=christian lololo).
What's wrong with "burn Satan burn!"? If you haven't heard Believer, I suggest you do, they are quite unique for any type of metal. Anything remind you of DOOM in that song? lol
@soulblade To prove you wrong, here are some brilliant lyrics from vengeance rising. "I smoked away my frustrations Can't Get out I took them out on my wife Can't Get out I even tried to smoke her too Can't Get out But she wouldn't fit in the pipe Can't Get out I really can't get out Can't Get out So I went to a Doctor Can't Get out"
Lol, those lyrics are kinda... SEXIST! Well it's pretty typical even to Christians I guess, since the religion itself is ant-feminist.
Lame lame lame. Metal is about freedom, not religious slavery. Just because some of the music may be good, doesn't mean i'd listen to them. If bands have pathetic lyrics or lyrics about absolute garbage (in this case, about Christianity), then i almost certainly won't listen to them. Music is an art and as such is meant to convey some sort of message to the listeners. If i dislike a band's message, i will find it very hard to like them. Now i'm gonna go listen to some Atheist.
