hahaha this cracks me up, an excerpt from @altpress on yesterday’s email blast. but on some serious notes, i am every day more and more inspired by my brothers and sisters fueling modern metal. while so much of christian culture seems like a half-hearted, watery version of mainstream culture, christians make up some of the […]

somebody has got to appreciate my phone background. i know the devil wears prada is a band that strives to not be in the way of their message, but mikey hranica is definitely someone i truly look up to. from the way he writes and sings to the way he and the rest of the […]

just so it’s clear, wolves at the gate will probably be my breakout heavy band of 2011 AND 2012. there’s very little like what they’re doing at the caliber they’re doing it. this video is beautiful. cheers.

my brother’s church [ironically also called ecc] led this at youth group on friday. couldn’t have asked for a more relevant or timely new song to hear. david crowder band has been pushing the limits of modern worship styles since day 1, and it’s amazing to see how far they’ve come. for anyone fortunate enough […]
