metalcore

challenger. probably one of the best albums of its kind that i’ve bought in YEARS. it was an enlightenment. and i can’t tear my eyes off the face on the cover. haunting. this is also one of my favorite lines off one of my favorite songs on it.

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 […]

memphis may fire is IMPOSSIBLY talented. it’s crazy to think that a band that everyone completely gave up hope for turned it so radically around. i’ve written on them a few times, but Challenger is seriously one of the strongest new albums i’ve heard in months [and in -core, months is a LONG time, especially […]

not huge on these somewhat blah looking text-on-random-color posts, but i would appreciate less judgment, haha.

i’ll post my other warped tour pics later. but for now, here’s one from my phone.. MEMPHIS MAY FIRE’s MATTY MULLINS tearing faces off. i’ve seen dozens of warped tour pictures now, and time and again matty mullins is probably one of the most iconic silhouettes of the tour, with his dope combover and perpetual […]

okay: confide, easily one of the most underrated bands of the genre. and they’re already gone.. bummer. i know their cover of Such Great Heights was a bit divisive, but overall confide was an extremely talented young band. i know joel piper’s got his own thing going [and a ton of love for it too!] […]

i freaking love the devil wears prada… this is common knowledge. i’ve previously avoided the Zombie EP because i’d heard it was less melodic and more straight metal/metalcore. it’s also the least christian of the TDWP’s back catalog, and i know they wanted to just make a fun zombie CD. i’ve heard snippets, but today […]

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 […]

i have a very great respect for levi benton, the 21 year old monstrosity that captains miss may i. the band is young, both as a group and as individual musicians, but that hasn’t stopped the ohio metal band from striking out and making a name for themselves. i’m told they were more or less […]

this is…@tdwpband’s Kansas. literally, the greatest instrumental i’ve ever heard. the first time i played it i almost soiled myself during the sound byte, a sermon by paul washer on the judgment of God and the Great White Throne. the sermon link is below if you want to listen in.http://bit.ly/T5sjW
