Do I detect a faint underlying Chritian theame to this band? Listen to Nightmare and Welcome to the family.

They're a known Christian band around these parts :P

I didn't know they were a Christian band even after listening to Nightmare for a long time... I think that's because I used to listen to their harder stuff before they became mainstream and still do on occasion. For a Christian band, they sure do scream a lot! It's awesome! :D

Well if they were a christian band they sure do have some odd lyrics.

One song in particular has an odd theme and lyrics. This song makes me question the christian theme.

It is called "A little piece of heaven" and it is about necrophilia.

This is it and if the embedding didn't work I will also give the link.

I think this song gives the underlying christian theme a good review.

Regardless of christian or not I do enjoy the band.

Dancing Dead is also another one that makes me question if it is a Christian band as well... I actually meant to embed that vid onto my last post but I was in a hurry to go to work, so I completely spaced out and didn't do it...

Oh, I don't know. Most people where I live have said they are a Christian Band, but I'm sure they could be mistaken :P

Lol! Ravin, I don't think most catholics talk about necrophelia or some of the other things that A7X talks about. :) But if they are a Christian band then I don't think it would matter cause they are awesome anyway!
