Geowge McDingleberry now I want to be a preacher just so I can say that to a church full people so that hopefully there will be less idiots going around protesting concerts
i am 100% christian, i like metal, i like hard rock, i like and wear black clothes, i have long hair, i have a gotee and i am 16. Case closed Edit 6 years later: Still a devoute christian, 23 years old, still like metal (specially sabaton) i dont wear much black, have a full beard, and now have shory hair. Still, listening to metal for years didnt take me away from being christian. Its all in what stuff you are into. Sure, if you are into bands with heavy satanic imagery amd delve into the occu't and so on you may leave the faith, but its not theusic style, is what you get into
Im 15 and Christian as well. I don't believe in the crap the church feeds you however. I do avoid satanistic metal (Or any music that is satanistic for that matter) due to my faith but other than that i listen to all Real metal. Just i while ago i went to a camp and met a girl who was christian as well and when i was talking to here and i mentioned to her my favorite band is Ensiferum she went up and said "Oh! Ensiferum! I used to love that band, Still one of my favorites". And also quite a few of my metal friends either believe in God or believe in olden norse gods. but mostly the Christian God. That in its self is proof that metal is not satanistic considering i have met more Christians who listen to metal or used to listen to than i have in the mainstream music.
I am a Christan, and I listen to every genre of metal, from heavy, prog, to death, black and viking. I'm tollerant, and I think I am a good person. I believe in God and I listen to this music cause I like it, so why bother? Some "metalheads" says that if you are a bieliever, a Christian, than you don't deserve to listen to metal and this makes me confused. But I don't give a sh*t and I'm gonna to listen to what I want to listen. Peace, love and listen to \m/ ( - - ) \m/

eugene chua Tom Araya from Slayer is Catholic. That says a lot about how seriously this satan shit is meant. It's just marketing, an advertisement for their music.

metal isn't the devil's music any more than country or anything than that I love God and Jesus DESPISE Satan and listen to metal and God's word can be spread through any kind of music pop, gospel, country and yes EVEN METAL
My mom is one of those people . she actually talked to me the other day saying that listening to metal means your going to hell and all that other bullshit
I'm Christian, black man, who likes metal. confusing as fuck but I feel metal is to any one who feel depressing, oppressed, let down hated etc. I feel and listen to metal to subdue rage and hate I see in the eyes of every one in this world.
levels Advocate? Why is it that people say that rock and metal satanic but they don't bat eye on rap a friend of mine says I shouldn't listen to rock and metal is basically the devil's work but he listens to rap he goes on to say it's bad for Christians and has a bad vibe when he listens to rap if I had told I didn't listen to rock n roll and still listen rap he wouldn't have said a damm word I think it's hypocritical when he listens to rap music I mean rock n roll may not be perfect but it can be easily argued that it's got a more positive influence on its listeners than rap
I've had two encounters with "God Botherers". In Canterbury, I was approached by a preacher and before he could say anything I said I was a devil worshipper. In Germany, two German evangelicals approached me and started speaking German and I told them I was from UK. They asked me what part I was from and I replied, "The atheist part." That killed the conversation so quickly and they walked off. I don't have anything against religion, just don't force it onto others.
volimNestea yall are and the sad thing is ya don't even realize the common sense, the irony and hypocritical statement "Metal isnt satanic when it clearly is" its sad I feel for every one of you.
I am a devout Christian, I grew up going to church, and I love metal. Yes there are a few satanic bands, but it makes me mad when people refuse to acknowledge that all metal isn't satanic, and that there are actually CHRISTIAN metal bands out there.

I don't understand why people choose to stereotype one whole genre of music. They are quick to judge metal, which they know nothing about, but I know many of those same people listen to music full of lyrics talking about sex and drinking and drugs and other such things. It's a bit hypocritical. And some people that I know declare that all non-Christian metal is satanic, as if there couldn't possibly be anything else to write about. I wish people wouldn't be so ignorant, but it is unavoidable. If you don't like the fact that I listen to metal music, too bad. Educate yourself before spouting insanity.

+clockworkofmadness First, Tom Araya didn't write the lyrics to those songs. Also the lyrics with many of these bands usually never reflect what they personally feel in their personal convictions. The lyrics are simply stories that present a topic from one open angle. The listener can take from that how they choose to. Same as watching a movie, it presents a story, good, bad, happy, sad, you don't take it to your personal convictions unless you choose to.
These two rap fans in my biology class, they hate metal and think its all screaming and growling, they asked me why metalheads like the color black so much, I replied with "well black is the color a church turns when you burn it down" lol
I'm a proud Muslim, and I'm a die hard metalhead, you know what I like most about metal? It's like what you said, no matter what religion, race, color or nationality, metalheads can just sit down with each other and talk and get along like nobody's business, I would love to see those freaks accomplish that!
For people here that still believe that Metal is devilish (only), search for a pastor called Bob Beeman, or bands like Crimson Thorn, Antidemon and Antestor. I´m a Christian, and listen to extreme metal too, and in my church metal extreme is used in all of our songs. We often do shows and often receive death treat from satanists. Even the bus of our pastor was hit by a gunshot, and he was hurt by knife. Antestor came to my country last year, and outside the show house, there were about 100 Black Metal fans calling names, spitting and throwing things, even their car were damaged. They wanted to kill the band because they were christian. What can I say more? So, yes, extremism, ignorance and arrogance from both sides.
@4:10 first time I've heard that and actually laughed. I totally respect this video. Now I'm not into Death nor Black Metal entirely, but I can let those who listen to it be, for this video changed me in a way; flagged those videos, I was so appalled.)
I'm christian and I can't stand Westboro baptist and it's bullshit. I respect agnostics and other seperate religions. And I'm also into Deathcore and Death Metal and get told I'm going to hell when I'm christian........... There are so many ignorant people out in this world man but, anyway Infidel your videos are awesome.
As a Christian we are called to love the person but hate the sin. Jesus showed us that through his actions and who he interacted with. It isn't our place to condemn anyone just show them that they matter as a person. Kindness can be very powerful.
I am a "religious" person and although I don't listen to death metal I listen to stuff like Bmth and I think that if you like that music go ahead but some do have disgusting lyrics but that is up to you personally I don't want to expose my self to those things but I am not going to stop you from listening to it
LOL. I watched the video you were talking about and I laughed SO hard... I personally think it's a troll video made to concentrate rage from stupid people who "take the bait". LOL I love that video... soooo troll.
its not trolling - watch the rest of their channel........ but after what's in it, you'd kinda wish it WAS trolling..... but it's not.... there's some nutters out there......
Satanism is a religion not a music genre. there can be satanic music just like how there is christain music or buddist music and its not always metal I listend to a satanic acoustic song and it wasn't talking about sacrife animals to satan just talking about how he gave knowledge to people to belive in themselves . and with metal I like septic flesh dimmu borgir as I lay dying dissection and so much more. iam a gnostic Satanist/theistic Satanist btw
Alex Mihail Yeah, dude, you're talking about LaVeyan Satanism. Theistic/Spiritual Satanism is the only real satanism. and it's not all that ridiculous mess that most people think it is.
Wow, you know something this might sound stupid but it never occurred to me that, like there's Christian/Gospel music that there could be Satanic music, do you have any links? Like maybe to the one you were listening to?
I remember when I visited my old Christian school down the street from my current high school(thank god[lol] I left) because I still have a couple of friends there. Anyway, this guy I kinda know who is friends with my friend, was looking through his girlfriends music library while his sister was talking about how she listens to Katy Perry, I said to her that Katy Perry has openly admitted to selling her soul and she didn't care then I took a peek at her brothers girlfriends library of music and said, "Where's DevilDriver(my favorite band and who's sweatshirt I was wearing that day)?" as sort of a joke and he said, "We don't listen to Devil music here!"... I told him right off clearing up the misconceptions of the name DevilDriver, which is the name of witches bells that are used to warn AWAY evil, if you didn't know, and how Bobby Liebling of Pentagram is a hardcore man of God, from what I gather from recent interviews anyway. I started going off saying that he as a christian preaches a non judgmental attitude but judges metal bands by their name and he was silenced. It was fucking awesome. \m/.
Really liked your point of view, I agree 100%. There is no point in dealing with those kinds of people, it's just a waste of time. Us Metalheads have the REAL facts about what Metal is and that's all that matters.
I feel like most metal bands are NOT Satanic, most are secular though, which isn't a problem at all, because there is a difference between Secular and Satanic. So I wouldn't worry too much about that! If you have not already, check out Metallica, Iron Maiden, In Flames, Soilwork, Demon Hunter, Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, & August Burns Red. They are not Satanic bands, and they're great!
I'm 100% christian. I love metal but there are lines that a pushed with people. I find it stupid when 'metalheads' say "why am i getting called satanic" when they wear stuff like clothes with upside down crosses and satanic logos. Be logical people.
I used to have a friend that thought I worship Satan because I wear all black and listen to metal. I remember I was with him and when I said hi to one of his friends when he came over and he randomly said to him that I worship Satan and I was so shocked I couldn't even say I don't I just stood there with my mouth open and nothing coming out
Shit I'm Christian and I listen to bands like Deicide, Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, and other "Satanic," groups. All they are doing is making ART, I swear to God these people don't know what that term means. Trust me bro I've dealt with a few of these and they always try to change me; but they must except the fact their are some people in this world who love God or other religions listen to metal. It may be held secret but it needs to come clean.
Let me guess they said you weren't a "true" Christian ether, I hate hearing that fucking idiotic statement. It's basically used to describe someone that is a Christian when they do something against the bible or wrong in general because apparently there not even a Christain because Christians can do no wrong, even though I can name a few Christians that are fucking shitty human beings. These people are so hypocritical too, like I'm pretty sure they've probably done some of these minor offensives that there calling people out for, or maybe some of the big ones, but just because someone does something wrong dossent mean they don't believe in God, there still religious.
Dylan Depaula Yeah, even though I follow Christ daily I love listening to bands like Venom, Slayer, Mayhem and Burzum. Music taste doesn't define your faith. God knows that we don't take lyrics and imagery seriously. He knows that our love for him doesn't change if we jump headfirst into the moshpit during Slayers "The Antichrist." Keep on believing, keep on headbanging, words to live by!
Catholic so what? I even played some death metal to the priest and he himself told me it isn't satanic hahaha... Let people say what they want we kno metal isn't satanic
Maybe not ALL metal is Satanic, but some of the biggest bands are/were. What about Deicide? Slayer? Morbid Angel? Behemoth? Cannibal Corpse? Death? Obituary? Entombed? The list goes on and on. Don't get me wrong, I love metal, but I don't pretend that metalheads don't dig the darkside, either.
Then you have a bunch of religion-neutral (or atheistic) metal bands, which tend to be bigger IMO. Metallica, Megadeth (Yes, Dave Snr & Jnr are christian, but Megadeth is not a christian band), Motorhead, Black Sabbath etc.
I know exactly what you mean, but if we could dig into a lot of those guys head I bet we would find that most of them are not "Satanist" at all. I mean I bet in their private lives/time they are not practicing Satanism. Again I don't obviously know for sure, but I would think it was a very safe bet to say bands like Slayer (which King has expressed many times) and many others are expressing more about rebellion against those that tell them they should not curse, drink, have premarital sex, etc..then them actually worshiping satan. Not to mention...it sells to a targeted audience. Again, just my opinion. I can't back it up lol. Now those Norwe Black Metal Bands...Those bastards are Satanist LOL
***** What do you mean "educate myself"? Don't be a idiot just for the sake of arguing. 1. I put a LOL at the end of it. 2. We know EVERY SINGLE Nor Black Metal band is not a Satanist . Grow up already!! 3. You also know that the Nor Blk Metal "Scene" has a very strong representation of those bands that openly claim it. THEIR WORDS (...and actions) NOT MINE!!! As a huge metal fan I didn't just pull that out of thin air.
Infidel Amsterdam, Hello, I am a big fan of your channel and I hope you read this because I want to know what your faviroute band is. Id appreciate it if you answer this. -Harrison (a big fan of yours ;))
+h.arrisondoherty Hey Harrison, it's hard to choose but some of them would be: Immolation, Decapitated, Demigod, Belphegor, Nile, Bolt thrower, Death, Dark funeral, Immortal, Venom, Aborted, Krisiun, Kronos, Grave, Asphyx, Dead congregation, Massacre, Kataklysm, Amon Amarth, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Sulphur Aeon, Beheaded...
Mickey Deez Fear of the unknown. Humans find more comfort in a fabricated book that's been translated and re translated again and again for thousand of years called the bible because the other people ( the sheep ) believe it :). Most of the time people don't fully understand the belief system they follow, they just follow it. Earth is doomed, If I created you guys I would of thrown the sun into your planet wiping you all out instantly. LOL :)
Smart people? We use 10% of our brain, sad truth is that we are dense. Always will be, always have been. No one is smart. No one can even properly define "smart", no one can even properly place which dimension "define" means. Think about that smarty.
I skipped over the video and I was actually more annoyed about him not picking better bands to represent metal/satan than I was about him being 100% wrong. Like I don't play Black Veil Brides or Bring Me the Horizon when I'm trying to summon satan, I blast some Deicide or Slayer
I love how I was just listening to that dark funeral album in the background while playing Friday the 13th on NES and there is a Jason next to the CD....
On the part where anyone can be a metal fan nomather what they look like or what they do. Though i have not seen any lawyers i have seen Emile Roemer (for the ones who don't know he is a dutch politician) on fortarock in 2012 listening to opeth (who played more of their heavy stuff and just a few progressive songs).
Man I agree with you, and it all comes down to one thing. People have to understand the difference between saying ''This music sucks'' and ''I dont like this music''. No music in the world ''sucks'' because for someone somewhere it sounds good. It's taste. It's a matter of perspective. Most people on youtube are simply trolls but I wish alot of the others who are serious would understand that. And if you do then please dont respond to those who dont.
Great video (as usual). I am a Christian and metalhead. There is a stigma among religious groups over the music, but mainly from people without opened minds. I play bass in our church's worship team and my "metal influence" comes out in my style. Keep up the good work. \m/
Dude as soon as you said what the video was about I busted out laughing. Those people have no lives and I just ignore them BUT I respect you for doing what's right and exposing these assholes!
I just watched this video, and I checked out the videos you referred to. At first I was laughing my ass off, cuz its extremely hilarious. But it hurts me to see such ignorance in our world... Its not just metal, folks, people like these are destroying humanity. LITERALLY!
dud .. thank you.. I've been having a hard time living .. I get bullied around for loving metal and I get carried away by what they say and those words grew into me. and plus I saw lots of metalheads saying that Christianity sucks.. I always get offended by what they say... thanks for uploading this video this really explains everything I need.. you're awesome
Brother in METAL thank you so much for showing the internet the intelligent side of us metalheads showing that we arent just a bunch of headbangers but actually deep thinking individuals with more than meet the eye \m/ :D
HGAHA amazing :D I went, and watched both videos of that channel I laughed a lot, then I came to watch your video. Great respect towards you ! Keep metal alive \m/ Also I do recall a video "dimebag vs christians" I do laughed a lot xD
There has been a rise in Christian Metal Bands AND there has been many metal stars come out and proclaim their religions, which go all over the board. A lot of us listen to it all without caring what religion the artist affiliates himself with.
There are different ones, the satan worshipping one. The Lavey type...and all kinds are being used in metal....and there are MANY metalbands that don't use ANY of this in their music or looks. Therefore it's too close minded to say that metal equals satanism.
True right? I had that problem with my friend as well! He's more like a Grunge guy now, but still he said something like that to me once, back then when I used to go to church, nowadays I just pray at home
This reminds me of when I was a child. I had just gotten into Pantera. One of the leaders at a church I went to found out about it and began to antagonize me. For months he would tell me that was going to hell, or that I was a shitty person for listening to music like that. In the end I quit going to that church. Best thing to do as stated in this video is to avoid these kind of people.
Unfortunately, while stumbling through that "weird part" of youtube; i found the video you are responding to, and I actually sat through most of it... FORTUNATELY, because of that video, I am now here. And I came to your video.. Hey-o!
Metal is not satanic, it is an expression, a form of art. Therefore it is NEUTRAL! The listener decides what they ultimately interpret from what they hear. Also there are plenty of brutal Christian bands (Impending Doom anyone?). This whole concept baffles me. I mean listen to folk metal. Folk bands like Turisas play beautiful music. I'm ranting now. A well done video good sir. You got a new subscriber.
You have to understand why the heavier side of music gets this attention though. When bands put use symbols like inverted pentagrams and goatheaded figures as their logos. They may be doing it just to look scary, and ok. But thats like a band using a cross as a symbol or incorporating something vaguely christian into the name. Like three days grace, they've gotten a lot of questions about whether or not they are christian, simply because of the name, even though they arnt.
As Marilyn Manson said: "If they believe an artist can destroy their faith, then their faith is very fragile indeed"

The priest who did the wedding for my sister, listens black metal and death metal. He's also Swedish...
There's a weird bond between Swedish people and metal music 🤔 all of my Swedish friends are metalheads
I have a friend who is a priest and a metalhead. He listens to several bands including Iron Maiden
so if all metal is supposed to be evil then how do you explain Christian metal
the biggest trash metal band metallica's lead singer james hatfield is a christian
eugene chua I think you meant thrash metal

I totally respect this video. Now I'm not into Death nor Black Metal entirely, but I can let those who listen to it be, for this video changed me in a way; flagged those videos, I was so appalled.)
I must say...Kind of jealous of your album collection...the size of that is AMAZING!!
I'm religious,(Christian), and I LOVE metal. It's the best!
I'm christian and I can't stand Westboro baptist and it's bullshit. I respect agnostics and other seperate religions. And I'm also into Deathcore and Death Metal and get told I'm going to hell when I'm christian........... There are so many ignorant people out in this world man but, anyway Infidel your videos are awesome.
Dario Argento You're right. It's not even a real church. It's a scam. They say that crap so that they can sue people for saying things back.
As a Christian we are called to love the person but hate the sin. Jesus showed us that through his actions and who he interacted with. It isn't our place to condemn anyone just show them that they matter as a person. Kindness can be very powerful.
let them judge fuck them stay deathmetal head
Andy Lizalde *stupid Joke alert*
He isn't a deathmetal head he is a dead metal head
Metal - The sound of Freedom!
I am a "religious" person and although I don't listen to death metal I listen to stuff like Bmth and I think that if you like that music go ahead but some do have disgusting lyrics but that is up to you personally I don't want to expose my self to those things but I am not going to stop you from listening to it
Ethan Thompson You mean Behemoth? They are (blackened) death metal. They're awesome!
Huehuehue, he listens to Bring Me To Horizon. I'm a religious person too, I listen to Deathmetal, deathcore, thrash, grindcore, etc
The_DeadGamer I may have heard the name, "
Bring Me The Horizon. I'll check them out.
OK, just got back from checking them out, not for me.
+Delpoene Evenhuis, I only like their old work , but it isn't metal now
Hey dude I'm a Christian who loves rock and roll and metal people have to much misconception
i don't mix religion with music,BAD MIXTURE!
LOL. I watched the video you were talking about and I laughed SO hard... I personally think it's a troll video made to concentrate rage from stupid people who "take the bait". LOL I love that video... soooo troll.
its not trolling - watch the rest of their channel........
but after what's in it, you'd kinda wish it WAS trolling..... but it's not.... there's some nutters out there......
I thought the video was a joke
Link?
Satanism is a religion not a music genre. there can be satanic music just like how there is christain music or buddist music and its not always metal I listend to a satanic acoustic song and it wasn't talking about sacrife animals to satan just talking about how he gave knowledge to people to belive in themselves . and with metal I like septic flesh dimmu borgir as I lay dying dissection and so much more. iam a gnostic Satanist/theistic Satanist btw
Well, Satanism is more like an ideology rather than religion. It's another way of saying you're agnostic or atheist :).
that's laveyen Satanism
Alex Mihail Yeah, dude, you're talking about LaVeyan Satanism. Theistic/Spiritual Satanism is the only real satanism. and it's not all that ridiculous mess that most people think it is.
Wow, you know something this might sound stupid but it never occurred to me that, like there's Christian/Gospel music that there could be Satanic music, do you have any links? Like maybe to the one you were listening to?
Sa tan satanism isn't a religion to me, its a way of life where you take everything you can get because life is short and you can't take it with you.
I remember when I visited my old Christian school down the street from my current high school(thank god[lol] I left) because I still have a couple of friends there. Anyway, this guy I kinda know who is friends with my friend, was looking through his girlfriends music library while his sister was talking about how she listens to Katy Perry, I said to her that Katy Perry has openly admitted to selling her soul and she didn't care then I took a peek at her brothers girlfriends library of music and said, "Where's DevilDriver(my favorite band and who's sweatshirt I was wearing that day)?" as sort of a joke and he said, "We don't listen to Devil music here!"... I told him right off clearing up the misconceptions of the name DevilDriver, which is the name of witches bells that are used to warn AWAY evil, if you didn't know, and how Bobby Liebling of Pentagram is a hardcore man of God, from what I gather from recent interviews anyway. I started going off saying that he as a christian preaches a non judgmental attitude but judges metal bands by their name and he was silenced. It was fucking awesome. \m/.
I'm actually a Christian and a metalhead at the same time and I listen to a lot of christian metal
why does so many people think that metal is evil. Thats pathedic
Well we do look a little bit evil, it just comes with the style of the music, it's somewhat intimidating😂😂😈\m/
Really liked your point of view, I agree 100%. There is no point in dealing with those kinds of people, it's just a waste of time. Us Metalheads have the REAL facts about what Metal is and that's all that matters.
Religion does not depict the type of music your able to listen to I'm christian and listen to metal..
did anybody else watch the video just to watch some cool drumming?
i am from Bulgaria, i am Eastern Ortodox christian and hardcore metalheadgirl since 30 years.maybe this is a problem for somebody,but not for me.
im a christian and i love metal. i was actually looking for non satanic bands when i came to this. no one with pentagrams and stuff
I feel like most metal bands are NOT Satanic, most are secular though, which isn't a problem at all, because there is a difference between Secular and Satanic. So I wouldn't worry too much about that! If you have not already, check out Metallica, Iron Maiden, In Flames, Soilwork, Demon Hunter, Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, & August Burns Red. They are not Satanic bands, and they're great!
I'm muslim and im a fan of metal. :) sir, you gained my respect.
Yay finally another Muslim who doesn't think that metal is satanic
José ( my girl ) has almost all their albums..;-)
Im ortodox christian,I know priest that love metal....
takodje :D
I'm 100% christian. I love metal but there are lines that a pushed with people. I find it stupid when 'metalheads' say "why am i getting called satanic" when they wear stuff like clothes with upside down crosses and satanic logos. Be logical people.
I used to have a friend that thought I worship Satan because I wear all black and listen to metal. I remember I was with him and when I said hi to one of his friends when he came over and he randomly said to him that I worship Satan and I was so shocked I couldn't even say I don't I just stood there with my mouth open and nothing coming out
Shit I'm Christian and I listen to bands like Deicide, Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, and other "Satanic," groups. All they are doing is making ART, I swear to God these people don't know what that term means. Trust me bro I've dealt with a few of these and they always try to change me; but they must except the fact their are some people in this world who love God or other religions listen to metal. It may be held secret but it needs to come clean.
+Bryn BORDELON I liked what you said. I totally agree with you
+Bryn BORDELON God bless you dude
Let me guess they said you weren't a "true" Christian ether, I hate hearing that fucking idiotic statement. It's basically used to describe someone that is a Christian when they do something against the bible or wrong in general because apparently there not even a Christain because Christians can do no wrong, even though I can name a few Christians that are fucking shitty human beings. These people are so hypocritical too, like I'm pretty sure they've probably done some of these minor offensives that there calling people out for, or maybe some of the big ones, but just because someone does something wrong dossent mean they don't believe in God, there still religious.
Dylan Depaula Yeah, even though I follow Christ daily I love listening to bands like Venom, Slayer, Mayhem and Burzum. Music taste doesn't define your faith. God knows that we don't take lyrics and imagery seriously. He knows that our love for him doesn't change if we jump headfirst into the moshpit during Slayers "The Antichrist." Keep on believing, keep on headbanging, words to live by!
deicide is satanic tho, just telling you, \m/
if all metal was satanic
deicide would be crying their ass off on stage
I think that is what I have said didn't I?
Catholic so what? I even played some death metal to the priest and he himself told me it isn't satanic hahaha... Let people say what they want we kno metal isn't satanic
slayet1997 this is the funniest comment on hear lol
Yeah! Dark Funeral rules!
My fav black metal band 😊
I'm christian, and I get so fuckin pissed off when people say metal is satanic! Oh yah Tom Araya is christian
Maybe not ALL metal is Satanic, but some of the biggest bands are/were. What about Deicide? Slayer? Morbid Angel? Behemoth? Cannibal Corpse? Death? Obituary? Entombed? The list goes on and on. Don't get me wrong, I love metal, but I don't pretend that metalheads don't dig the darkside, either.
Gorgoroth is Satanic, Slayer and Cannibal Corpse aren't.
Then you have a bunch of religion-neutral (or atheistic) metal bands, which tend to be bigger IMO. Metallica, Megadeth (Yes, Dave Snr & Jnr are christian, but Megadeth is not a christian band), Motorhead, Black Sabbath etc.
I know exactly what you mean, but if we could dig into a lot of those guys head I bet we would find that most of them are not "Satanist" at all. I mean I bet in their private lives/time they are not practicing Satanism. Again I don't obviously know for sure, but I would think it was a very safe bet to say bands like Slayer (which King has expressed many times) and many others are expressing more about rebellion against those that tell them they should not curse, drink, have premarital sex, etc..then them actually worshiping satan. Not to mention...it sells to a targeted audience. Again, just my opinion. I can't back it up lol. Now those Norwe Black Metal Bands...Those bastards are Satanist LOL
***** What do you mean "educate myself"? Don't be a idiot just for the sake of arguing. 1. I put a LOL at the end of it. 2. We know EVERY SINGLE Nor Black Metal band is not a Satanist . Grow up already!! 3. You also know that the Nor Blk Metal "Scene" has a very strong representation of those bands that openly claim it. THEIR WORDS (...and actions) NOT MINE!!! As a huge metal fan I didn't just pull that out of thin air.
Death was not he named the band in honor of his dead brother it used to be called manta rays
Tbh metal is better then pop and rap and that shit but end of the day music is music end of story 😊 also black metal is fucking awesome
Man I wish more people of "faith" would apply your attitude you seem like a really cool dude
Infidel Amsterdam,
Hello, I am a big fan of your channel and I hope you read this because I want to know what your faviroute band is. Id appreciate it if you answer this.
-Harrison (a big fan of yours ;))
+h.arrisondoherty
Hey Harrison, it's hard to choose but some of them would be: Immolation, Decapitated, Demigod, Belphegor, Nile, Bolt thrower, Death, Dark funeral, Immortal, Venom, Aborted, Krisiun, Kronos, Grave, Asphyx, Dead congregation, Massacre, Kataklysm, Amon Amarth, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Sulphur Aeon, Beheaded...
They are great, are you a fan of devourment
+Infidelamsterdam Kataklysm, Cannibal Corpse, Amon Amarth, and Decide are fucking sick! \M/ Opinion on Dying Fetus?
+Infidelamsterdam .
+Davi .
they're just butthurt cuz satan has the best music xd
Then why don't they convert to Satanism?
Mickey Deez Fear of the unknown.
Humans find more comfort in a fabricated book that's been translated and re translated again and again for thousand of years called the bible because the other people ( the sheep ) believe it :). Most of the time people don't fully understand the belief system they follow, they just follow it. Earth is doomed, If I created you guys I would of thrown the sun into your planet wiping you all out instantly.
LOL :)
So you would even kill the smart people?
Smart people? We use 10% of our brain, sad truth is that we are dense. Always will be, always have been. No one is smart. No one can even properly define "smart", no one can even properly place which dimension "define" means. Think about that smarty.
King Carnage stupid logic, there ARE intelligent people
Ofcourse but I am quite done taking that guy serious. If you read his comments you will see why...
I skipped over the video and I was actually more annoyed about him not picking better bands to represent metal/satan than I was about him being 100% wrong. Like I don't play Black Veil Brides or Bring Me the Horizon when I'm trying to summon satan, I blast some Deicide or Slayer
I'm a dedicated Christian and I love metal.
I love how I was just listening to that dark funeral album in the background while playing Friday the 13th on NES and there is a Jason next to the CD....
Assuming that whatever Anton Lavey said should be the truth then?
My friends do really enjoy metal (like myself) and they are some of the kindest and quietest people I know.
"Don't be what they want you to be and what they keep saying that you are." Ah, I love that.
HOW MANY CD'S BRO HOLY SHIT
Earthling?....from what planet are you?
Please continue that discussion somewhere else..
Yeah I mean how many things can 'no' mean?..:-/
On the part where anyone can be a metal fan nomather what they look like or what they do. Though i have not seen any lawyers i have seen Emile Roemer (for the ones who don't know he is a dutch politician) on fortarock in 2012 listening to opeth (who played more of their heavy stuff and just a few progressive songs).
Man I agree with you, and it all comes down to one thing. People have to understand the difference between saying ''This music sucks'' and ''I dont like this music''. No music in the world ''sucks'' because for someone somewhere it sounds good. It's taste. It's a matter of perspective. Most people on youtube are simply trolls but I wish alot of the others who are serious would understand that. And if you do then please dont respond to those who dont.
Great video (as usual). I am a Christian and metalhead. There is a stigma among religious groups over the music, but mainly from people without opened minds. I play bass in our church's worship team and my "metal influence" comes out in my style.
Keep up the good work.
\m/
Dude as soon as you said what the video was about I busted out laughing.
Those people have no lives and I just ignore them BUT I respect you for doing what's right and exposing these assholes!
A great man once said- "Metal ,you get it or you don't, if you don't, we don't need you!".METAL ON brothers and sisters!
I rolled on the floor laughing at the end :D awesome video, mate, keep up the good work!
Stay metal \m/
Finally! I've been searching for hours for someone with tolerance,respect,and common sense on TH-cam.
I just watched this video, and I checked out the videos you referred to. At first I was laughing my ass off, cuz its extremely hilarious. But it hurts me to see such ignorance in our world... Its not just metal, folks, people like these are destroying humanity. LITERALLY!
dud .. thank you.. I've been having a hard time living .. I get bullied around for loving metal and I get carried away by what they say and those words grew into me. and plus I saw lots of metalheads saying that Christianity sucks.. I always get offended by what they say... thanks for uploading this video this really explains everything I need.. you're awesome
Brother in METAL thank you so much for showing the internet the intelligent side of us metalheads showing that we arent just a bunch of headbangers but actually deep thinking individuals with more than meet the eye \m/ :D
From the planet Nielss - 04. Now to be serious, he was using that as an analogy. I'm like 300% positive that you picked that up.
HGAHA amazing :D I went, and watched both videos of that channel I laughed a lot, then I came to watch your video. Great respect towards you ! Keep metal alive \m/
Also I do recall a video "dimebag vs christians" I do laughed a lot xD
I agree.
LOL, literally all my family members and my parents think i'm a satanist because i'm a metal head, makes me laugh every time.
doorkicker5667 same
There has been a rise in Christian Metal Bands AND there has been many metal stars come out and proclaim their religions, which go all over the board. A lot of us listen to it all without caring what religion the artist affiliates himself with.
I'm Muslim and i like listening to metal , music is not about religion
Ed, If that ever happens to me.. Evangelicist: "you're going to hell!" Me: Hell?" "I'll meet you at the ninth gate !"
There are different ones, the satan worshipping one. The Lavey type...and all kinds are being used in metal....and there are MANY metalbands that don't use ANY of this in their music or looks. Therefore it's too close minded to say that metal equals satanism.
True right? I had that problem with my friend as well! He's more like a Grunge guy now, but still he said something like that to me once, back then when I used to go to church, nowadays I just pray at home
anybody else just die laughing when he says"The devil's right here on my couch" and he starts laughing?
This reminds me of when I was a child. I had just gotten into Pantera. One of the leaders at a church I went to found out about it and began to antagonize me. For months he would tell me that was going to hell, or that I was a shitty person for listening to music like that. In the end I quit going to that church. Best thing to do as stated in this video is to avoid these kind of people.
It's just a shame there's nothing useful...
As a side note that is a beyond bad ass collection of albums you have there brother
I see "Dark Funeral - Diabolis Interium" standing behind you! :D
Unfortunately, while stumbling through that "weird part" of youtube; i found the video you are responding to, and I actually sat through most of it...
FORTUNATELY, because of that video, I am now here.
And I came to your video..
Hey-o!
I just like this man , always talking right ...
Im so glad you made this vid. Im actually writing a college essay on this very subject!
Nice shirt man! That band is actually local in my area! They kick ass live by the way.
I just love how they have ratings and comments disabled on that video. It shows theyre cowards even on what they believe.
is that a dark funeral album against your jason figure? wicked...
Metal is not satanic, it is an expression, a form of art. Therefore it is NEUTRAL! The listener decides what they ultimately interpret from what they hear. Also there are plenty of brutal Christian bands (Impending Doom anyone?). This whole concept baffles me. I mean listen to folk metal. Folk bands like Turisas play beautiful music. I'm ranting now. A well done video good sir. You got a new subscriber.
-VE
+E
Got it?
Yeah....see ya there!
I try to get to the point of your comment but I have a hard time doing so, could you explain a bit?
No offense, I just don't entirely get it.
So you're confused.....I think I will just let you be this way.
Good luck with it.
You have to understand why the heavier side of music gets this attention though. When bands put use symbols like inverted pentagrams and goatheaded figures as their logos. They may be doing it just to look scary, and ok. But thats like a band using a cross as a symbol or incorporating something vaguely christian into the name. Like three days grace, they've gotten a lot of questions about whether or not they are christian, simply because of the name, even though they arnt.
