Good music, lame words. I cant help it but for the most part I think that contemporary Christian music has pretty trite and shallow lyrics. Tree63's Blessed Be Your Name - a classic example of really lame lyrics with really great music. (Sweetly Broken by Jeremy Riddle is exempt) I love reading the traditional hymns, some are real poetry in motion. But man - the music sucks. I always used to dread looking at the closing hymn and seeing it was sixteen verses long and went on for 12 bars. Then of course the tempo would be a snails pace. 36.7 minutes later the song was done.
I should start a contemporary band and just cover old hymns. We could just be called BORN AGAIN - ha ha. double entendre there.
We could have Strong Bad front the band

i always thought that would be a good idea.
It could be fun. It would be cool if it was done right. Almost like the DKM doing Amazing Grace.
exactly. I have always had a whole bunch of songs in mind that would make great metal versions.
most of the reason i don't go to church is because of the music.
i cannot tolerate it.
